Looks like I might be moving back to the NW. I moved from hometown Bellingham to DC almost 2 years ago and now might be going to Portland/Beaverton. What's the trail scene around Portland like (I would assume there's a fair amount)? What are some notable trails for AM/FR? I know Seattle, Bellingham, and Vancouver (BC) but I'm pretty clueless about Portland.

Good to hear you're moving back to the wet coast. I've heard lots of good things about Post Canyon and Black Rock. They're both outside of Portland but not far of a drive from what I've heard. I'm hoping to get down there this spring and check some of the stuff out. When's the move suppose to happen? Might have to hook up for a ride sometime.

Blackrock is west of Salem, it took some of my friends from Portland 1.5 hours to get there....so its not too bad

Hey TJ - I was accepted at Pacific University's PA program but I'm waiting to hear back from Cornell in NYC. If I don't get in there, I'll be moving middle of May. If Cornell happens, I'll be moving to Manhattan or Queens for two years starting in August.

PNW riding will kick my ass whenever I get to do it again. I haven't taken a jump or drop over 4 feet since I moved out here; and those are few and far between.

Ha ha, if you move out here we'll have to take you up to Whistler and make you do the green and blue runs all day, actually the blue might be pushing it a bit

Hey it's official, I'll be in Portland starting mid-May. I withdrew my application from Cornell because the east sucks. Can't wait to check out blackrock, looks SWEET.

Congrats, just don't say "weee!" too much in the tougher parts of town.

You know Portland does have movie theaters at bars where you can order food and stuff. That's pretty damn cool in my book.
