Surveyor’s Ridge
As of 5/25/2009, lower Surveyor’s is open and clear of snow!
You can ride this trail as an out-and-back or as a loop with Forest Road 17 (23.7 miles as a loop). Surveyor’s is mostly rolling singletrack along a forested ridgeline with many beautiful viewpoints. If you’re not familiar with the trail, take a map, as many trails and roads cross the singletrack.
To get there: Go 31 miles south on Highway 35 from Hood River. Turn left on Forest Road 44. Follow the 44 Road 3.5 miles to the Surveyor’s trailhead on the left.
Rode Surveyors Ridge today and it is in fantastic shape! Just be cautious of the bees – there are a ton of them right now!
Surveyor’s is open from Bottle Prarie down. There is still snow up at High Prarie.
