Shave & A Haircut

Shave & A Haircut is a short, back-loaded mountain biking climb in Oregon, about half a mile from the town of Lewisburg. The route is an out-and-back that gains about 200 feet in elevation over a mile, with the steepest stretch at roughly a quarter mile in, where the grade reaches about 19 percent. The high point is around 1,050 feet, and the climb is rated moderate. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Corvallis show July and August highs in the low 80s with only about three wet days a month, while winter brings highs in the upper 40s and rain on most days. That station sits well below the climb, so temperatures on the route run cooler. Manscape, a mountain biking spot, is just 0.1 mile away, and the Uproute Trail and Innuendo are within a third of a mile. For paddling, the East Channel Willamette River is about 6 miles off.
