NW Cup 2025 Round 6: Snoqualmie Pass, Wa
Race Report: 2025 Race 6 // Snoqualmie Pass
Patrik Zuest, photographer for the NW Cup, shares his stories and images from a great weekend of #USDH racing.
And that’s a wrap on weekend two of NW Cup Road Trip #2!
This time, the crew rolled into Snoqualmie Pass Bike Park — and once again, the venue delivered a weekend full of great racing, great people, and some truly unforgettable runs.
Now in its second year hosting the NW Cup, Snoqualmie Pass continues to raise the bar. With dedicated tracks for Cat 3, Cat 2, and Cat 1/Pro, plus fresh reroutes for two of them, this wasn’t just a repeat of last year — it was a whole new challenge. A mix of fast sections, creative line choices, and technical puzzles kept riders thinking from top to bottom. Throw in perfect weather and you had the ideal recipe for exciting, unpredictable racing (and yes, maybe a lost shoe or two along the way).
At the end of the weekend, it was J.T. Fisher going a perfect 1-for-1 in both seeding and finals aboard his Yeti enduro rig, showing that precision and power go a long way on this track. Ella Erickson continued her winning streak, once again topping the Pro Women’s field with a confident and composed run.
In the junior categories, Leah Macartney, Jake Stegall, and Kenai Rowan each stepped up to take the win, showing the future of Northwest racing is looking fast and fearless.
Now it’s time for a well-earned break as riders recover, reset, and set their sights on the grand finale: Stevens Pass in September. See you there!
