Serving the Tri-Cities and southeast Washington — building trails and community in the Columbia Basin.
01 / Regional Overview
Where we ride.
The Columbia Basin chapter serves the Tri-Cities area and southeast Washington, covering Benton, Franklin, and Walla Walla counties. It's a young, fast-growing chapter building community in one of Washington's sunniest riding regions.
Signature trail areas include Badger Mountain, Candy Mountain, and the expanding network around the Horse Heaven Hills. The chapter is actively working to designate new trails and build partnerships with local land managers.
With mild winters and dry summers, Columbia Basin offers nearly year-round riding. The chapter runs regular work parties and community events to grow the local riding scene.
