This was bike ride from Stehekin to High Bridge to check conditions of the road and see what Upper Stehekin valley has to offer!
Started our ride from Stehekin and turned around at High Bridge. The road goes from paved in beginning to deep gravel. I was able to make it on a hybrid bike, but my partner’s gravel bike worked much better. We left the bikes at High Bridge and continued on foot until Tumwater.
Along the way we checked out Rainbow Falls and Harlequin Camp. Both are spectacular. The falls were roaring with all the spring snowmelt!
All in all, I can’t say I recommend this as bike ride unless you have a gravel setup. I definitely want to come back and hike from High Bridge to Highway 20, but will probably take the shuttle next time.
