This area is fantastic for a full day of smooth cruising around taking in the sights and smells of the forest. Much of it is shaded, so even in the hot summer it’s a great place to visit. A passenger car could drive most of the roads, so don’t expect a challenging ride, that’s not what this area is about. This area provides a nice forest ride up in the mountains with easy access to campsites everywhere, decent views, relaxing, and chilling out.

On Naneum Ridge Rd, the northernmost road, there is an excellent lookout over the Mission Ridge area. There are several points where you can look out over the forest and mountains for many miles. The last couple miles of trail to get up on the ridge are a bit rough. You can ride on any road that has a white marker with a green dot on it.
