I just watched this again. I grew up in La Verne/San Dimas. I cut my teeth riding Marshall Canyon/Claremont Loop 3 X a week for years. I thought that was the epitome of MTB until I saw videos of the OC trails. I thought, "I could never ride those "black diamond" trails". A couple years ago after watching Outsider MTB I started riding OC trails on my old hardtail. Now at 50 yrs old I'm doing what I could only dream of when I was 35 (on a full sus trail bike).
13:50 I live less than a half mile from the trail, and have totally overshot that turn not only on my bike but also while running. You really can't emphasize "comes out of nowhere" more!
Great video. Been up Marshall canyon many times but never knew how to get to the top. This video was perfect.. also your riding seems flawless... good job..
Rode Marshall Canyon years ago hundreds of times day and night, always fun. I've seen deer, bobcats and mountain lions on that trail. And plenty of horse riders who always get priority. Great video of a fun trail!
@@TheOutsiderMTB LOL, I didn't mention the bears that used to visit my cabin. I lived in Claremont in a small canyon. The National Forest was my backyard for 8 years.
Man love the videos. Did m first trail here 2 days ago. I'm glad I had a signal to watch your video or I would have got a little lost. hopefully Ill catch you on the trail one of these days while im still trying to Increase my stamina lol.
Thanks for doing what you do! Great camera, audio, narrating, you keep it clean and informative. Be rad to run into you some time. Just did Marshall this afternoon, didn't go as far up as you. It's probably a little far from OC but have you ever hit Hulda Crooks in Loma Linda?
Thanks for the positive feedback and tuning in Trent! I've gotten a lot of requests lately for Hulda so I'll head out there soon. Just on my way back from Santa Cruz this week. ;)
Actually their are several ways to gain access to Marshall Canyon and you missed the main entrance off of Orange St. Had you made a right turn behind the school and crossed the bridge heading east you could’ve accessed the entrance off of Orange St. And you were right, it’s La Verne, Ca. 91750… As a La Verne resident I’ve ridden up in Marshall for 20 years. 2000 to 2010 was 4 to 6 times a week and now that I’m 65 I’m doing the ride 3 to 4 times a week. It never gets old and you can easily spend 2 hours up there exploring different trails…
How hilarious! Payam is one of my good friends. I'm getting ready to get into mountain biking and my friend sent me this video. Didn't realize my buddy Payam was in it LOL
Just rode Marshall Canyon for the first time today (4/2/2021). Boy has it changed since your video. The switchbacks have been bulldozed, and the Golf Course looks like it's been closed for the past 2 years! Kinda a post-apocalyptic. Anyway, I was still able to use some of the info from your video, so that was really helpful! We ended up getting a wild hair and going all the way up to Potato Mountain. First ride for me in 4 weeks since going OTB at Santiago Oaks last month. Love the channel! Hope to see you out there sometime! - Dan
I love your videos! Thanks for the 411! Looks like a great trail; albeit, popular, 50 minutes away, and somewhat complicated network of routes to find it. I'd like to try it, but boy it looks complicated.
I have been riding this trail for years. I always hated the the uphill traffic so I always start at the school and ride over to Cobal and take that to the top. Then come down Marshall.
Sup. So now they have different jumps at the jump section. They have some advanced ones that can send you about 6 feet in the air. If you’re ever in La Verne check it out. There’s about 8 jumps in total.
Hello Outsider! I was wondering if you would consider making an updated version of this trail guide. My cousin and I watched your video over and over before heading out but we still had to pull out our phones and rewatch on the trail 😅 since some features had changed. We used your Fullerton loop trail and it was amazing. Would Marshall canyon also get a detailed guided video? Anyways just wanted to thank you for your taking the time to make mtb’ing possible for us first timers and beginners!
we normally go to the right not left of the stairs take the path to the street, go right then down the street, trail head is on the left . We will try that way next time though . thx
@@TheOutsiderMTB tbh I actually go out to start mountain biking is because of your videos. I've been on the edge for a few years but nvr gone out. So big thanks to you sir.
@@TheOutsiderMTB Yeah it's overgrown in some spots but it's still fun! Not a super long trail either. There are a couple different routes to take up there. Check it out if you head over this way again. 701 E Mauna Loa Ave, Glendora, CA, 91741.
It would be helpful if you could just time lapse the parts that you cut here. I've done this trail 3 or 4 times and I sometimes get lost by accident, so I was hoping to see all the turns, but you cut a few :(.. at least you kept the quick right after seabiscuit's gravesite, lol.. that helps!
The entrance is sketchy.wow.i thought you were going to have to go through a back yard and cook for someone wash some dishes and then mow a lawn.lol then you could get to go to the trail.lol
Yes you can! It connects to the loop at what's known as the "yellow gate" which is close to the loop Gazebo. You can go through the gate and down to where he started his first true downhill called Sidewinder that leads to the picnic bench. Or you can stay on the loop past the gazebo and there's another trail system that connects to the top of the Z backs (where he climbed again after the Picnic Bench) which will lead to the single track
My XC bike is going to love this trail

💥 Epic.
Looks like a fun trail. Thanks for sharing your ride.
Nice work!! I'm a beginner/intermediate rider and it's cool to see you riding some of my favorite trails, like Marshall Canyon!
That's great! Marshall is fun for all levels in my opinion. Thanks for being a part of the channel Jason. :)
I've taken all the way down from the Claremont wilderness trail, bit sketchy on a hard tail ..I hit a rut/ rock a tweaked my pedal ..it was fun though
Sketchy and fun. I’ll take it. ✔️
@@TheOutsiderMTB I mostly did the Claremont loop on a 29er hard tail, it gets boring ..Marshall canyon is more scenic and challenging
13:50 I live less than a half mile from the trail, and have totally overshot that turn not only on my bike but also while running. You really can't emphasize "comes out of nowhere" more!
Even when I know it’s coming! Haha so true Denk!
Always looking forward to your videos, keep it up man!
Thanks Ivan! Appreciate hearing that and thanks for watching.
Cool that you have this for the dudes like me looking for fun and interesting but not trying to die.
Used to ride here in the 90s, few hikers but tons of horses back then. And hardly any other mtbers, times have changed.
Yep
I really like your videos. It's great to see u growing!!
Thank You Niccolo! Appreciate you being a part of it!
I really appreciate these videos, I live close to Marshal Canyon and thanks to this video, I am learning the route to the Top! Thank you
Great to hear!
Really enjoyed your film, thanks so much for your time. I'm new at this just bought my bike and think I'll run this trail. Thanks Again
Happy to hear the video helped. Plenty more like it coming and in the library. We all start somewhere! ;)
Looks like a fun and easy canyon ride :) Nice work as always!
Fun ride for sure - appreciated!
Great video. Been up Marshall canyon many times but never knew how to get to the top. This video was perfect.. also your riding seems flawless... good job..
Love that you found the vid useful. Hopefully some of my other vids can be helpful as well. Thanks for watching and the kind words!

Gloves or no gloves magic trick. I like it!😎 great video bud!
Haha - thank you! I usually no glove it on the climbs. ;)

That second hard right Sandy always gets me too!
Even though we know it's coming!
You can also make a Right turn at the top of the stairs,, great video
Makes sense. So you can also enter from the way I exited. A couple of options. Thanks for tuning in Steve!
I used to tide a lot of LA MNT trails and I have never seen tools and an air pump at a bike trail . that wad very cool.
great trail guide! finally someone did it!
Thanks Carlos!
Welcome! just subscribed too. Keep them videos coming!

Small world! Was a fun day for sure meeting them. Stick around - plenty more trail guides to come and help with your riding locations. ;)
Yo, awesome video! Hope you share more videos soon! Anyway, I liked your video. Have a good day! All the best, Philipp from PHAM
Thanks for watching Philipp!

Always Alec!!!
Great video dude 👍
Appreciate that and you watching! I dig your channel man.

Thanks! The links below will help you navigate. 👍
This is nice flowy trails. I’ve only been here 2-4 times. I normally ride S. Oaks.
It's a long way to the top!!! AC/DC...!!! Yeah climb climb get it!!!
Gotta earn those descents! 👊🏼
I really appreciate you doing the blue trails. Don't forget about us older guys!
I’m one of the older guys!
love it works great. just the right size
Great to hear!
One of my favorite trails. I do it frequently. "Lies"🤣🤣🤣maybe.
👊✔️
🙄👍
I have been riding this trail for years. I always hated the the uphill traffic so I always start at the school and ride over to Cobal and take that to the top. Then come down Marshall.
Good stuff Jay.
Nice looking ride
Thanks Matt!
Good video!! Thank you!!!
I’ve been going up this thing all wrong 😂😂
Happy to help! Thanks for watching!
When I went there, there was a gate, and a long ride and a huge dirt pile, then the sign was there
nice ride
Faster than me! Cool vid!
Thanks and welcome to the channel!
When are you doing this trail aging??? ?? Me and my friends been doing it all wrong lol 😂
Sup. So now they have different jumps at the jump section. They have some advanced ones that can send you about 6 feet in the air. If you’re ever in La Verne check it out. There’s about 8 jumps in total.
Good stuff. 👍
This looks like the perfect trail to rehab a bit on... Wish it was a bit closer tho.
👍
Hey I ran into to you today. Came back to this video to make sure.
Nice where were we? Say hello next time Manuel! 👊

Hi, beautiful nature! Do you plan to make more videos? Anyway, I liked your video. Keep shredding!
Thanks! Every week Philipp. I'm in AZ right now so those will be next. ;)
This place.is cool! Noce vid.
Thanks!
we normally go to the right not left of the stairs take the path to the street, go right then down the street, trail head is on the left . We will try that way next time though . thx
Gotcha - it sounds like the way I exited the trail on the way out.
@@TheOutsiderMTB exactly .
also we normally ride up to Potato . I'm gonna have to watch your video again for those other single tracks too . tho thanks
Can someone help me? Once you got to the water tower, did you go up the trail on the right?
There is another way to the top. Take the street up to the north of the golf course. Up to a water tower then you can drop in
Yep. Check my other Marshall vids. ✔️
Hey, it is la Verne but I just went rode the trail 2 days ago
Nice - thanks man!
Wow coming back to see this trail from 2 years ago was wayyyyy nicer than what it is today. It is almost dangerously unrideable now a day 😔
Probably so dried out right now.
@@TheOutsiderMTB tbh I actually go out to start mountain biking is because of your videos. I've been on the edge for a few years but nvr gone out. So big thanks to you sir.
@@heyitsme6651 That's awesome!
Do El Prieto/Sunset Ridge
El Prieto x Brown Mountain is on my list. This one's definitely happening in the next couple months.
The Outsider MTB. ... lemme know when you do- my bf and would love to ride with ya
What to do, if you make a wrong turn and you get lost in the forest?
I adjust. Figure out where to go. Proceed. Such as in life. 😉
How do you stop so smoothly without skidding out of control?
Practice?
What camera setup do you use? Thanks!
Hero 8 with the stuntman chesty. 👍
good Super
Super
Have you ever ridden at south hills park in glendora?
I’m not sure. I don’t recognize the name. Good?
@@TheOutsiderMTB Yeah it's overgrown in some spots but it's still fun! Not a super long trail either. There are a couple different routes to take up there. Check it out if you head over this way again. 701 E Mauna Loa Ave, Glendora, CA, 91741.
👊
realistically, how long did it take you to climb from the trailhead to the summit?
About 35 minutes I think.
@@TheOutsiderMTB thank you so much!
It would be helpful if you could just time lapse the parts that you cut here. I've done this trail 3 or 4 times and I sometimes get lost by accident, so I was hoping to see all the turns, but you cut a few :(.. at least you kept the quick right after seabiscuit's gravesite, lol.. that helps!
RIP lil buddy. 🥲
The entrance is sketchy.wow.i thought you were going to have to go through a back yard and cook for someone wash some dishes and then mow a lawn.lol then you could get to go to the trail.lol
😂
Can you get to this trail from the Claremont Loop?
Not sure sorry.
Yes you can! It connects to the loop at what's known as the "yellow gate" which is close to the loop Gazebo.
You can go through the gate and down to where he started his first true downhill called Sidewinder that leads to the picnic bench.
Or you can stay on the loop past the gazebo and there's another trail system that connects to the top of the Z backs (where he climbed again after the Picnic Bench) which will lead to the single track
@@danielboutros2648 thanks
In surprised someone hasn't came buy with wire cutters and steel those bike tools.
I want to go this Saturday at 12:30pm anyone wanna go?
Wood ride. Triple.
No parking?? Screw that,,
Sheesh lots of hairy spots on those descent’s.
You think I could ride this trail with a Salsa gravel bike? lol
I guess haha.
Need more blue trails videos. Blacks are fun to watch but the vast majority of viewers ride green or blues.
looked like a lot of horse shit on the trail, don't they believe in cleaning up after their pet
Bunch of horse shit if you ask me.
