the place rocks. its my favorite US lift served place (still a ways from whistler, but i like better than mammoth/northstar). it has lots of chunk, steeps, drops, skinnies, jumps. good vertical, 2400 feet a run so nice long runs. place beats you up, alot more chunky that winterpark.

rode with mouse jockey as he has been here before. they even have 8 inch skinnies to 6 foot drops, good stuff! oh yea, i stripped my derailer hanger so rode chainless for 2/3rds of the day:)

this was on the first run, a nice ladder drop
Image

Image
a trail with a good amount of woodwork, ends in a 6 foot drop
Image

Image
too slow, landed fine but nosed it somewhat
Image
a wild offchute of the main trail. we rode it strainht down, then a small distance to either a drop or roller. i was a tad out of control and hit the drop with speed and barely made the turn at the bottom. back tire leaves the ground on the top roller.
Image
the bottom huck/roll part
Image
the drop zone, numerous drops here. this one was nice, steep chute into a drop with 6 min that you can make 15 if you want
Image

Image
another one of the drops
Image
a blind landing, you had to clear out some distance on this and have some speed, a fun one
Image

Image

a good day out there, hit this place if you like chunk, steeps, and drops:)

I miss summer riding. :(

DFT and I had a great time riding in Colorado together. I came back to reality last week. He in in Phoenix right now and, I think today, coming back to SoCal.

Nice.

This is one of my favorite pics of me there. One of the few times I have perfect form on a drop.

Image

Here is the drop "paranoid".

Image

Barracuda:

Image

And my the "I still can't believe I dropped this" -- JAWS. At the time it was the largest resort drop in the nation. They have since dismantled this drop due to I guess being too dangerous.

Image

View looking down. That lower ladder to the left is barracuda. Yea, it's 7 feet higher than Barracuda. That rock right before the transition is about 2 feet high. Don't short the tranny; it's 12 feet out from the ladder's edge.

Image

And here's a link to my short video of me hitting it. Yep, I'm tooting my horn. "TOOT, TOOT!"

This place looks fun, even if I can't do most of that stuff.
