E Road is a short, out-and-back mountain biking route in Washington, about 0.22 miles long and roughly 0.44 miles round trip. It sits at an elevation of about 1,221 feet, with a high point of 1,221 feet and a low of 1,086 feet, so the climb is a small one. The route is a middle-grade climb, with the steepest stretch at about 0.11 miles in, where the grade reaches 14 percent. The total gain and loss are each about 135 feet. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Friday Harbor show July and August highs around 72 to 73°F with only six to eight wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the mid-40s and rain on 14 to 16 days. That station sits well below the route, so temperatures on the trail run cooler. Several other mountain biking routes lie close by. B Road is about 0.1 mile away, and Branch E-1 and Branch E-5 are each about 0.2 mile off. Lower Tea is about 0.3 mile away.
