General

The inaugural Tower Rock Trial in 2025 was such a success we are going to do it again. Like all good rock bands the sophomore album is a little different than what made us fall in love with them. For 2026 we are going to focus more or quality over quantity. Instead of doing a 2 day trial this year it is going to be a single day trial utilizing more of the property to allow each of the 10 AM and 10 PM sections to be crafted in a way that really show the marshal's character. Following Little Wheels and awards Saturday evening join us for an evening of friend, food and fundraising. The Northwest's own Kylee Sweeten has once again been selected to be part of the US Trials de Nations team for 2026. It takes significant resources to to compete in the international stage and she has almost reached her fundraising goal. Let's see if we can put her over the line so she can spend the last month for the competition preparing without having to worry about fundrasing. Cell service and internet are limited please bring good old fashion cash, Apps and electronic payments my not work.

While the trial will only be Saturday the sections will be left up and Sunday will be a play day. During the fundraiser, riders will have an opportunity to purchase coaching time from some of the best trials riders who call the PNW home: former GasGas US factory rider Daniel Blanc-Gonnet, 9 time Team USA TdN rider Kylee Sweeten, and multiple time NATC pro top 10 finisher Dennis Sweeten. You have a chance to go back an figure out the sections that took point
from you, get a score card and challenge your buddies to a trial of your own making or just have fun and enjoy the property and hit the road at a time that works for you without any commitment to being there all day riding or observing. 

Dry camping is available on site. Small and medium size campers encouraged. If you plan on bringing a large RV please contact Paul Neff to make arrangements. If camping is not our thing the nearest hotels are located 30 minutes away in Packwood Washington.
