In September 2025 I rode The Hood Loop over three days, a route developed by Cedar Keyes. https://bikepackingroo…

My days were as follows:
Day 1: Start to Parkdale
Day 2: Parkdale to Boulder Lake
Day 3: Boulder Lake to Finish

Overall this was a great route, however I think the character of this route will be quite different with the aftermath of the Grasshopper fire. (https://share.watchdut…)

Than you for developing the route Cedar, I feel fortunate to have been able to ride it!
