Another out and back to Bagby Hot Springs. Ride starts from Hole-in-the-Wall boat launch at MP 41. Used to start from Carter Bridge, but a little leery due to potential suspicious people. The first 9 miles to Ripplebrook store is a gradual incline. However, was aided by a nice up-canyon breeze. This breeze would come back to haunt me on the return trip. It has been nearly 4 years since the devastating Riverside Fire. The vegetation is making a good recovery, but miss the dense forest canopy. The next 3.5 miles continues on the 46 Road. At mile 12.5 veer right onto the 63 Road. This is where the Collawash River meets the Clackamas River. This is an enjoyable 3.5 mile stretch with great river views. Also, it is beyond the Riverside Fire origin making for a great ride through forest. The 2021 Bull Complex did not reach this section. Turn right onto the 70 Road and continue 6 miles to the Bagby Hot Springs campground. Major improvements occurring at the campground and the Hot Springs. Did not see the camp host, although their camping trailer was there. The return trip was a battle. The section back to the 63 Road was nice and nearly all downhill. But, from the 63 Road back to Hole-in-the-Wall the up-canyon wind made for a much harder ride, even with a lot of downhill. Easily 10-15 mph with gusts to 20 mph in the exposed sections.
