April – Ride MTB: Loam Pass

Loam Pass PT 1 – Mount Shasta MTB Shuttle Trails

On my way home from Sea Otter I decided to stop at 3 Loam Pass destinations. It was pretty awesome to have so many stops conveniently spread out for the perfect amount of driving and riding each day on my way home, I could have even added a fourth!
First stop was a shuttle with Shasta Gravity Adventures in Mount Shasta. This was the beginning of May. So there was still snow at the top of the mountains and I had to do a shorter ride, but I hope it at least gives you a taste of what the trails are like here.

Loam Pass PT 2 – The Most Fun Shuttle! Ashland, OR

On day two of my Loam Pass trip, I stopped in Ashland, OR to get a shuttle from Ashland MTN adventures. This is the most fun shuttle I have been on, it is such a long descent with fun flowy trails, a little tech if you choose and some fun jumps. I highly recommend making this a destination to ride at!

Loam Pass PT 3 – Cog Wild Shuttle in Bend, OR

This was the last day and stop 3 of my Loam pass road trip at the beginning of May. Due to snow the night before, I wasn’t able to showcase a proper shuttle, but I was able to show a taste of what the scenery is like if you have’t ridden in the area. It seems like it would be perfect for a family trip where everyone can get a taste of some riding that they enjoy.
