Scappoose Access Update (story)

The Scappoose Trail network off Rocky Point road has grown in popularity and has quickly become one of the best and most accessible riding areas for Portland mountain bikers. The trails exist on private land owned by Longview Fibre (LF) and we have been permitted to build and expand the network of trails based on a verbal agreement between a land manager at LF and PUMP's John Joy.

Recently the responsibility of overseeing this land has changed hands within the Longview Fibre personnel. There were certain issues in regards to the existing trails that caught their attention and they request that the following be completed immediately:
  • Remove jumps in the trail system, especially those that have tree limbs or logs pounded into the ground vertically.
  • Remove structures & signage that use non-natural items in their construction which can potentially cause damage to tools & personnel during logging.
  • Do not destroy any further plant life, cut or damage any tree, or excavate any land.
  • Do not construct any additional trails
  • No commercial activities of any kind.

PUMP understands that LF owns operates this land solely for timber production and very much appreciates that LF has allowed us to build trials and ride on their private land. In order to maintain access and a good relationship with LF, PUMP will be planning a series of work parties to bring the Scappoose Trails into full compliance with LF's requests. They have requested that all the work be completed before August 1st. and we plan to have it completed as soon as possible.

Central and Southern Coast Trails (forum)

I am looking for information on trails along Oregon's central and southern coast.  Last year I had a great ride at Cape Perpetua and was interested in knowing about other trails that might be in the same area and also further south along the coast.

Anyone have any info?  Thanks!
