Scappoose Ride Report 3.3.18:
While the trails were fun to ride they are not as maintained/cared for as they once were in the heyday of Scappoose's past.

The good news is that you can tell that there are volunteers who have been working to keeping the trails open.

For the most part, the trails were clear of down trees but Jon and I still found a couple to remove so we could claim our 'good deed' for the day.

If you have not ridden at Scappoose, it is old school trail design with lots of technical features, wet log overs, roots and punchy climbs.

I had stopped riding there 4-5 years ago and thus I was sad to see the massive clear-cut at parking area & gate when I arrived.
But the once you ride up the hill through the clear-cut you reach the trail and the fun begins. See map.

Besides Powell Butte and Gateway Green, Scappoose is one of the closest trails to ride (30 min from DT Portland).

Now get out there and ride.
