Insider tips

Check your bike’s brake pads and tire pressure before every descent, as the high-vertical-drop trails generate significant heat and wear.

Use the morning hours to ride the upper-mountain technical trails before they become crowded or develop braking bumps.

Invest in a full-face helmet and body armor, as the terrain includes significant rock gardens and steep gradients even on intermediate lines.

What to avoid

Attempting advanced 'black' or 'pro-line' trails without warming up on the lower-elevation 'blue' flow trails first.

Good to know

Operates seasonally from May through October; closed during winter months when the area functions as a ski resort.

Etiquette

Full-face helmets and protective body gear are strongly recommended; yielding to faster riders on singletrack is mandatory.
