Trail Information

Highlights

Trail # 311 is located in the Mt. Baker Snoqualmie National Forest within the Evans Creek ORV park and is one of a dozen or so trails available in this park designated for 4x4 use, for a total of over 45 miles of trail riding. Trails are well marked and rated from Easy to Most Difficult. This trail has one of the most beautiful views of Mt. Rainier if you are lucky enough to be here on a sunny day. The trail winds up through a mature dark forest, following along and above the access road that leads to the campground. While the rating isn't significantly high, you will still have to contend with tight, twisting turns around trees and stumps. There are some hill climbs that, while not difficult, might make you pucker just a little.

Definitely a fun trail and a great one to get more experience for new drivers. This is probably the easiest trail here at Evans Creek ORV so get your feet wet and be ready for more fun.

Trail is clear and in good condition. Still a lot of snow to get back from the campground to the main entrance. This could prove difficult.

This was a fun trail but harder than the 2-5 rating suggested. I ran it with a friend in his ZR2 with a 2" lift, rock sliders and front/rear lockers. We did not struggle ever but I would rate this trail at least 3-5 and in the moderate category. That being said I can see why, technically, the authors may have rated it a mandatory 2 seeing as it did not have huge rocks (bigger than 9" or drops more than 12"). However, the tight turns, and especially rocky hill climb at waypoint 3 made this a mandatory 3 for me. I imagine that this would be especially true when it's muddy out there (we had a very nice, dry day). There were easy and hard lines on the waypoint 3 hill climb (or drop if you're coming from the other side) but even the easiest line might have some slipping (especially without lockers) and very tight navigation. We used both lockers going up and didn't really slip. While we were there a Wrangler turned around and did not attempt the hill climb. Overall a great trail with a very nice viewpoint at waypoint 4!
