Just rode Raging River for the first time yesterday, it was a blast! Did the 19mile big lollipop loop that covered 'no service' and 'ccdh' and ended in 'popping tops' and 'flow state'. Really great trail system but my favorite so far since I moved to WA has been tiger mtn. Close encounters, otg,notg and predator have been my favorite descents of all (not including Whistler of course haha). Great vid man!
Thank you! Heck yeah that’s a big loop! Tiger Mountain is another destination trail system that would also be put on my “Mt. Rushmore of trail systems in WA.” The i90 corridor is just amazing
Great video that showcases what Raging has to offer. We sometimes do what we call the Figure 8. It's the Lollipop but then add CCDH to Raging Tiger to ED and/or The Bull. And then Popping Tops and Flow State to the lot.
I want to add that a large part of the reason for break-ins are drugs and the fact there is a casino pretty much beside the mountain! Local police does drive up there semi-often, but of course, that all depends on timing. I also want to add that if you continue on No Service instead of doing People's Elbow, its fast flow tech and I'd argue its better than the early trail that leads up to People's Elbow. Ive done People's Elbow a few times, but I honestly think the other direction is more fun, but to be fair there aren't many sanctioned rock rolls around
My husband and I haven't been to Raging River yet but it looks like a lot of fun. The Lollipop Loop looks great I just need to get better at black and double back diamonds to give it a try.
Heck yeah! You can make no service work if you’re a blue rider. Some sections might be a little tricky but if you’re cautious and walk what you need to walk then it’s still an awesome loop!
@@MTB_Corbin Not a good comparison because Galbraith is privately owned land. DNR is state land. You are right about there being many e-bikes around though.
@@MTB_Corbin yeah similar scenario as Tokul. Private ownership with allowed recreational use. Except Galby has much better relationship between recreational users and land owners and don't charge for use.
just make sure not to take a left on Raging Tiger at the bottom of Exec Decision...shit leads you down miles to no mans land and you're no where near the parking...no signage anywhere keeping this from happening. Also, kinda dumb to name the primary through trails with the same first name....

Best trail system in WA state.

The figure 8 is a great one! Thanks for recommending 👍🏼

Really good additions!

Sounded like Mario jumping out there on the flow lol

Anyone know if there are any plans to make it e-bike accessible?
If you show up to the parking lot on any day you'll see about 50% e-bikes already, I wouldn't worry about it if you're wanting to bring one.
I bet DNR will eventually… especially since Galbraith “officially allowed” them this year

ahh thanks for the clarification! I didn't know Galby was privately owned.
