Overview
Cook and Green can be ridden multiple ways. The first and easiest (fitness-wise) option is to shuttle to Cook and Green pass via the 1055 rode. This makes for a long shuttle, but definitely worth it. <br><br>The next option is to make a loop ride by riding up the 1055 Rd. and then bombing down the trail. The best way is to park at the Seattle Bar day use area at the end of the lake and ride up the 1050 to the 1055 down the trail. This makes for a long grinding climb, so make sure you bring plenty of water and food. The loop is approximately 21 miles with close to 3000 feet of climbing.<br><br>The final option is a simple out and back on the trail which can be a good option in the early season to scout the trail before you rip down. This is a backcountry trail that has been neglected for quite of few years so beware of the encroaching brush and any down logs. <br><br>RVMBA and the MRA have been working to complete maintenance on the trail and hope to have it cleared by summer 2013.
