KING SALMON DOCK GRADE CLIMB
A Challenging & Scenic Ride up Dock Grade Road

Can YOU Make the Grade?

It’s a challenge, an opportunity, a ride like no other. White Salmon’s Dock Grade Road is only closed when the road is impassable due to snow and ice or debris. It’s a challenge to drive this road due to it’s narrowness and lack of road striping and rails. With 20% grades and no place for cars to pass, a bicyclist attempting to ride up would have to be crazy and/or arrested.

Except on July 10, 2010, when the road will be closed to automobile traffic for the challenging and scenic King Salmon Make the Grade Dock Grade Climb.
