Mazama Park via Ridley Creek — Thursday, Oct. 15, 2020

* Due to recent weather conditions, there is now about 7 Alders leaning across the trail a few miles before the Ridley Creek TH. AKA, You'll have to turn back around.

Once you turn onto the USFS road from Mostiquo Lake, about three miles in the road becomes fairly one-laned from the loggers trucks and soft terrain. Once you take the right after the bridge onto the road that will take you up to Ridley Creek, you can make it four miles (ish) but there are branches and rocks to maneuver around on the ground- and a leaner that wouldn't clear a tall rig (my Tacoma cleared it, but there was only 2 ft. left). 

Regardless, the jackstraw originally mentioned create conditions that are fairly impassable. You can K-Turn here. Enjoy whatever adventure you're heading off to!
