Race the OTT - 2021 Grand Depart
700 miles in 5 days? Sounds crazy to us but some folks think it’s possible. Since we launched the Oregon Timber Trail (OTT) in 2016 one of the most common questions is “How long does it take?” This year our curiosity has gotten the best of us—we’ve partnered with Laird Superfood and Rapha to track Fastest Known Times (FKTs) on the whole OTT route and each of the four tiers.
Letting Go And Growing: Family Bikepacking
Our family of three has been bikepacking for over 6 years, and much has changed in that time. I’m not just talking about the normal progression as a child grows and bikes get replaced, routes get longer or more adventurous. While that’s definitely happened, this past summer saw some of the most important growth to date.
Shared Love and Responsibility on the Oregon Timber Trail
Our world screams at us to see the differences in people – red versus blue, conservative versus liberal. So much energy is put into building walls and encouraging a low energy civil war. In reality, it’s not black and white, but shifting shades of grey mixed with feelings, fear, and desire for connection. A shared love and responsibility for our public lands is a place to start building bridges.

Introducing The Anaxshat Passage: Hood Tier Loop
Pedal your way through massive old growth, past bubbling blue pools, around alpine lakes, and along a indigenous explorer’s route on the Oregon Timber Trail. The Anaxshat Passage embodies the trails and backcountry landscapes of the Hood Tier, all easily accessible over a long weekend from the Portland metro area and geared towards a less-experienced mountain biker.

Black Lives Matter. Outdoors. Everywhere.
I’m exhausted. After a week of grieving for black lives needlessly being extinguished I have a headache, clenched jaw, and no words left. After a week. Yet black people in this country have endured this exhaustion and much, much worse for four hundred years. So we're asking you: What can we do to make sure black lives matter?

Who's Riding the Timber Trail? A Look at the Demographics of our Users
Each year we ask the people out riding the Oregon Timber Trail questions about their experiences and themselves. This data is not only interesting to look at, it’s also great to see the parts of the experience that people highly value and also exposes what we need to improve along the trail. By and large you all have had an excellent experience: 98% said they’d recommend the OTT to others!
Oregon Timber Trail Alliance Awarded Over $200,000 in Grant Funding for 2020-21
2019 was a landmark year for the Oregon Timber Trail Alliance. Our momentum out the gate had carried us a long way in four short years but it was quickly becoming apparent that in order to achieve our goals we would need to develop a business plan with diversified funding streams. Fast forward a few months and we found ourselves stacked with exciting and ambitious projects—and for the first time—funding to execute them.
