Yacolt Burn State Forest features a massive 50-mile spread of some of the best backcountry trails along the I-5 corridor. Gems like Thrillium and Cold Creek blast 1,500 feet downhill and are chock-full of technical rock gardens, jumps, berms, and rollers.

Its kinda hard to drive to but its built well and really fun to ride. The trail starts with a steep rocky descend if you start near the top and leads to nice flowy section with great bermed corners and nice jumps on the side of the trial.
Thank |Looks to be a good track during dry weather. It started to rain yesterday, and puddles formed. very slippery when wet in the clear cut sections. Nice jumps with some deep banking turns. Good run
Thank |This is the PDX area premier DH trail. Unlike other DH trails, this one is well maintained CCMTB club and relatively sustainable. You can ride this thing on any bike, but you are best suited with at least 6" or better, a dedicated DH. DO NOT climb this trail! please shuttle or climb Cold Creek to top of TH. Upper is natural rugged with drops. Lower (starting at clear cut) has huge table tops and jumps, big berms and fast terrain.
Thank |Typical NW out-and-back climb/DH although this DH is great for anyone. Features along the way to challenge the advanced rider or simply ride around them. Get to the top and take in the view of the Vancouver/PDX valley. Cold Creek Mountain Bikers maintain the trail and do an amazing job enhancing features, draining, and so forth.
Thank |
