Orting - Black Diamond Loop

We'll start at the Foothills Trail at the corner of Calistoga and Washington in Orting, head to Auburn, up and over towards Black Diamond, and then down to Flaming Geyser State Park for a picnic.  After lunch, we'll head back along Green Valley Rd to Auburn and back to our cars in Orting - all on very flat roads.

This is a fairly flat ride with some nice scenery.  Please remember to bring your lunch for the picnic at Flaming Geyser.

If you are new to group riding, please review the Cascade newcomer info: http://www.cascade.org/welcome-newcomers.

Restrooms at the start. Bring all tools and tubes needed to fix a flat.

Please be courteous to your fellow riders and arrive at least 20 minutes prior to the start to prepare your bike, listen to the ride briefing and allow us to leave on time.

Cue sheets will not be provided, please print one if desired. Regroups will be as needed and at the top of hills (of which there aren't many). 

Pre registration is available and saves you time at the start by not having to fill out the waiver form, simply check your name off when you arrive at the ride. Sign in with your Cascade user account, click on the register button and fill out the information. Remember to save.  Registrations will be open until 6 pm Thursday evening.

In the event of a cancellation, Ride Leader will post a cancellation in the comments section two hours prior to the start. Ride Leader will not be at the start if cancelled.
