Thanks @clairejencks As a newcomer to Seattle, we really appreciate your guides! Got to Bellingham a few times last summer and it can be a bit overwhelming with the number of options, we'll give your loop a go next time.
Amazing! Thanks so much for the kudos - I’m so glad they’ve been helpful! Totally agree that Galbraith can be overwhelming. What’s awesome about that loop is that you can stop after any of the downhill and add others to the lap. Depending on your skill and energy level check out Dad Bod, Evolution and Unemployment line as well!
@Claire Jencks Nothing negative. I visited Galbraith last October so it was nice to revisit the place. 😀 I liked the tips on parking. When I was there, I had to ask a local to find the right place to park. So I find that to be very helpful. Also find the detail on each trail very helpful. As well as the good riding. 👍
Great job, Claire. I always enjoy your videos and have used many of them as trail guides. My only criticism is I wish you could slow down on the map sections. I get confused and find myself rewinding to try and figure out the route.
William, thank you so much for this specific feedback. I've been wondering about the maps myself! Could I ask a couple of clarifying questions? How do you utilize the maps? Do you like the specific turn by turn part so you recognize the trailforks map when you're actually on the trail? Or the overview part so that you can get a sense of the route, or do you use it for something else? And then more specific question--> When the map shows up in between trail sections, would you prefer that the map be there for a second or two longer, that the voice-over stop talking, or that I do an overview of the whole route? Haha, so many questions but it's refreshing to hear feedback so thank you for taking the time to comment!
@@ClaireJencks was thinking Chuckanut Mountain, if your in that same area... down south... maybe Capitol Forest. I’ve heard good things, but haven’t made it yet
Hey Andrew! They are generally rideable year-round. The upper trails were snow-covered for part of February but are fairly clear now. Lots of rain, not so much snow for coastal PNW :)
@@ClaireJencks 😉 you being a young white lady, I'm sure you would find it as such. But for a black man on an inexpensive mountain bike ,,, not so much.

I've watched a few of your videos now. Honestly love that you show the parking lot with tips and route to the trail
This is an amazing video. Between the maps, the commentary and the editing. It should get more love!! Thanks for making this.
Glad you enjoyed it! Hope you have a great ride!
Going back to trail forks during the description is very cool, great video!
🤙🏼😎

Glad to help!

Great video! Funny timing, I hiked up to the summit today in the snow. Check out Dad Bod next time you're up there.
Very cool! Thanks for watching Michael. I love Dad Bod (the trail ;) Galbraith is incredible! Do you live up in Bellingham?
@@ClaireJencks yes I do! I'm fairly new here so still learning all about the abundance of trails. It's incredible!
@@ClaireJencksthere are some other talented TH-cam creators here, you should check out Fife and Flow and Wild Grit.
Ooh yes! Thanks for the recs. I’ve met Danica (of Fife and Flow) and she’s great! Wild Grit is new to me so I’ll definitely check them out!
🙌 awesome
Thanks for watching Frank!
Awesome video!!!!! 💯💯💯
Thanks!!! Anything in particular you liked or would change?
@@ClaireJencks was thinking Chuckanut Mountain, if your in that same area... down south... maybe Capitol Forest. I’ve heard good things, but haven’t made it yet
Definitely can do both! Capitol runs fairly soggy in the winter so Chuckanut might come first.
@@ClaireJencks awesome!!! Looking forward to it
it was good meeting you at Toku last month
We should go ride Black Diamond / Henry's / Summit Ridge over in Maple Valley sometime....
It was so great to meet you! Absolutely would love to ride over that way with ya!
@@ClaireJencks i live 10-15 minutes from there. Hopefully soon :-)
@@mikebaltierra Awesome! I'll reach out via FB next time I head over.
@@ClaireJencks sounds good!
Thanks so much for this video! Are the trails covered in snow this time of year?
Hey Andrew! They are generally rideable year-round. The upper trails were snow-covered for part of February but are fairly clear now. Lots of rain, not so much snow for coastal PNW :)
@@ClaireJencks Thank you! I'm going to drive up soon and check them out!
Whoop!
What bike did you sport on your ride?
This is a Diamondback 5C (carbon enduro).
Galbraith has great trails! ☝️🧐Unfortunately most of the crowd up there are quite snobby and Prejudice.
Hi! Thanks for watching. I find mtbers everywhere I’ve ridden to be for the most part kind and gracious - hope your experience next time is better ❤️
@@ClaireJencks 😉 you being a young white lady, I'm sure you would find it as such. But for a black man on an inexpensive mountain bike ,,, not so much.
Thanks for the clarification 🔥
@@ClaireJencks No problem 👍🏿
