Coal Miner

Event Description

This event was created for those who want to get back to basics: just you and some new friends exploring my backyard trails and ridges. You should be prepared to fend for yourself for a long, challenging day out in the mountains. Minimal aid. No course markings. Think a mini-Plain. If you don't know what Plain is, this event isn't for you.

Starting out of Roslyn, this burly trail 50 connects Cle Elum Ridge with Sasse Ridge out to Jolly Mountain, then descends down Jolly Creek to the Middle Fork of the Teanaway River, which you'll follow down towards its confluence with the West Fork of the Teanaway River. From there, you'll grab the Big Sandy Trails back up to the top of Cle Elum Ridge before returning to Roslyn, hopefully in time to grab dinner from one of Roslyn's fine dining establishments.
