MT ADAMS TRAILRIDERS

EVENTS

 

Trail rides and prize fun runs

The Mt. Adams Trailriders try to hold a couple of prize fun runs each year.  The club has its own trail which begins at the clubhouse and makes an 8 mile loop on Watch Mountain behind it.   The membership also tries to get together as a club for several fun rides at various locations in the surrounding Cascade Mountain Range and Gifford Pinchot National Forest.
