Raging Tiger is a short, easy mountain biking route in Washington, managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. It sits about 1.1 miles from the Pacific Climbing Trail (PCT) and is roughly 1.2 miles from the Raging River, so it pairs well with other outings in the area. The route is an out-and-back that covers about 2.3 miles, with a total climb of 686 feet from a low point of 1,327 feet to a high of 1,835 feet. The steepest stretch comes early on, with a 13% grade at about 0.05 miles in. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from the Cedar Lake weather station, about 6.4 miles away, show July and August highs near 70°F with only eight or nine wet days a month, while winter brings highs in the upper 30s and regular snow days. Nearby options include the Pacific Climbing Trail (PCT) and the Raging River, both within about a mile and a half. The Lower Return Policy mountain biking route is about 2.3 miles away, and the North Bend & Vicinity climbing area is about 4.3 miles off.
