Exploring Washington's most Under Rated Trail - Bethel Ridge

I join ‪@theoverlandtruckstore1527‬ group run to explore Bethel Ridge one of the most underrated trails in my opinion. Bethel ridge offers a mix of terrain as you cross from the wet western side of Washington to the dry eastern side of the Cascade mountain range. With high cliffs and scenic views of lakes and mountains this was by far one of the coolest trail systems I've explored in Washington state! Im so pleased with the performance of my Toyota Tacoma after installing new long travel kit from Camburg Racing. The truck glides through the deeply rutted terrain with ease which made the entire experience a ton of fun. If you're looking to upgrade your Tacoma take advantage of CBI Off Road fabs sale happening now! glnk.io/kzy3/maxxpowell

Stumbled upon this video in my recommended section! Next time you’re in the area take hwy 410 up to the little naches turnoff. Lots of trails that your rig is more than capable of handling. There’s a trail in the area called “Ravens Roost” that would be a super nice drive similar to bethel ridge.

Finally got to run this route over last weekend in our 2023 Subaru Ascent. We camped up at the top of the hidden viewpoint on Bethel Ridge. Spent the 2nd night up at Manastash Ridge Observatory. Great roads with some technical areas, but mostly very rocky (and deep ruts on Bethel Ridge Road specifically).

This looks awesome! Where is the start/stop for this trail? I know it's near Nachese, but wasn't sure of exact location. Also, about how much ground clearance do you think you'll need to get past those ruts (or can they be bypassed)?

Yes, part or the WABDR. A couple of years ago that was very dense forest where the ruts were before the fire. There was only one way through it and that was very tight and challenging. In the middle of June, with mud, slime and ruts, it would have taken 8 hours to get that group through. So now, after the fire it is over rated, before epic.
