Support The Trails
MAMBA is a group of mountain bikers, hikers, runners, nordic skiiers and other non-motorized users who build and maintain a network of trails on, and around Moscow Mountain.
The Trails
Private Land
Public Access
Almost all of Moscow Mountain’s 60+ miles of trails are on privately owned land. We have access to them because of the generosity of the landowners, and our relationships with them.
We’ve got a simple ask: keep that in mind when you’re out there enjoying the mountain.
Rules of the Trail
- No Motorized Vehicles
- No Fires
- No Target Shooting
- Be Considerate to Other Users
- Respect Trail Closures
The News
If you've visited the trails around West Twin in the last few weeks, you may have noticed some changes around Wild Dog. The old Wild Dog trail is now officially closed, and the new reroute, Wild Dog Alt (aka Mild Dog because it switchbacks instead of going straight UP), is officially open!
The rerouting of Wild Dog was necessary due to concerns from landowners about erosion and motorized vehicle use. As a result, there is now debris blocking the previous fall line of the old Wild Dog trail.
A special thanks goes to the WSU Ski Team and WSU Center for Civic Engagement for their assistance with the trail closure!
How are the trail conditions out there? Fingers crossed I'll get some pedals in next week. Is the gate closed already?
November trail committee meeting is rescheduled for THIS Wednesday, November 15 @ 5:30 pm. Moscow Chamber of Commerce.
If you're looking for ways to get more involved with MAMBA and making our local trail system awesome, these are the meetings to attend! Hope to see you there.
Currently the slash piles from last years' logging are being burned on Moscow Mountain- Headwaters and Foothill Road.
The landowner has not communicated that the area is closed to recreation during slash burning. However, use common safety sense. We'd recommend choosing a different route until the burning is complete.
Pretty impressive fires- apparently you could see from town last night!
Will be back burning today more of the unit
Quickly message #herm_cracks on Instagram, am sure he will help you recovered your account trust me
Due to the natural gas pipeline rupture affecting the Palouse region, the Moscow Chamber of Commerce is closed today. The meeting will be rescheduled later in the month.
Exciting trail update from Palouse Land Trust! Thanks to PLT, the private landowner, and volunteers for making Penstemon Path and Love Connection trails happen!🥳🥁Drum roll please.... Love Connection Trail linking Penstemon Path to the greater Moscow Mountain trail corridor is officially complete!
Thanks to the hard work and dedication from our dear friends and trail-building extraordinaires, Mike Barker, Mark Deming, and Brant Miller, the long-awaited connector trail has been completed. From the top middle of the lollipop, look for the newly completed Love Connection trail! This challenging, switchback trail links Penstemon Path to Jack’s Route and the full MAMBA trail corridor across Moscow Mountain. Thank you to our friends at MAMBA (Moscow Area Mountain Bike Association), Palouse Road Runners, landowner Trish, and the awesome community members who have made Penstemon Path and Love Connection a reality.
