Hide and Seek is a short mountain biking route in Oregon on Bureau of Land Management land within the Nw Oregon Cascades Field Office. The out-and-back ride is less than a quarter mile long, with a low point of 1,045 feet and a high of 1,060 feet, so it's a climb of about 11 feet one way and 84 feet round trip. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Portland run to highs near 77 to 78°F in July and August, with only about five or six wet days a month. Winter is cool and damp, with highs in the mid-40s and rain on most days from November through March. The Homestead Loop hike and Laura's Loop mountain bike route both sit about 0.1 mile away. Paddlers can reach the Little Sandy River about 2.2 miles off, and Wildwood Recreation Site offers camping roughly 2.6 miles away.
