Have you checked out the Washington forum at MTBR yet?

Not a trail, but a place I really want to check out is Colonnade bike park. They've built it under a freeway bridge in Seattle, which doesn't sound too inviting or romantic, but google it and you'll see they've done an incredible job of turning "wasted" dirt into a useful and fun destination for kids and adults and anyone on two wheels.

We've been following their progress and hoping to have something similar down here in So Cal sooner, rather than later.

When I was Washington a little while back, this site came in useful

Off the top of my head, some 'local' places you might want to try are: Tiger Mountain, Tapeworm (in Renton). If you're willing to drive, take a look at Galbraith mountain (although, if you're willing to drive that far, keep going north into Canada)

Both of the places I mentioned above are described on the bbtc site.
