New start for the OTT!

The official start is now Deep Creek Campground, a few miles north of the California border. You can still begin at the old start (Cave Lake) and then simply ride the backroads to Deep Creek Campground.

Avoid the 22 miles of trail along Winter Rim (mile 108.5 to 130.9). The trail is too brushy to bike on. Instead, use the Winter Ridge Trail bypass.
Avoid the logging roads that tie the northern end of the Old Cascades to Brietenbush Hot Springs. The roads are still being repaired following the Lionshead fire. Instead, use the Detroit bypass.
“Remoteness, views, and backcountry singletrack were the most rewarding part of my experience.”
