Razorhone Road follows the North Fork of the Nooksack River. Enter the trail from the northeast corner of the Salmon Ridge Sno-Park. The route has a fairly gentle climb of about 200 feet (about 60 meters) over the 5 km to the end of the trail. There are several small hills which are rated easy. There are several shorter side trails through the woods on both sides of Razorhone in the first ¾ mile. The first half mile is generally groomed with tracks at each side with a skating lane in the middle. Near the middle of the route, is a one mile climb to the right called “Blueberry Bounce.” An extension of Blueberry bounce, new for the 2004/2005 season, we call Blue Bear. It is rated intermediate difficulty. At the end of the trail is a view of a waterfall and Bagley Creek. Yes, in the summer, there are lots of blueberries along Bagley Creek. Near the end of the route, about a half mile from the river, is a trail we call Bear Hill Run. It is marked Most Difficult because of steep sections, though it does have Easiest and More Difficult sections as well. There is also a spur trail off Bear Hill Run, new in the 2004/2005 season, called Cougar Trail.Webmaster: Susan McClung:mailto:smcclung@whidbey.net date of latest revision: January 24, 2009Now there is a nice little foot bridge to connect the two new trails and we have a great loop! Both of the new segments go very gently down hill to meet at the same point across Razorhone creek. The canyon provides a very beautiful spot to have lunch while viewing the waterfalls. Then if you like, you can cross the bridge.
The parking area is a Washington Ski Sno-Park and a permit is required to park.
