Alaska's first chair lift/tram assisted downhill trails. There is a $35 all day lift fee. There are several trails to choose from and 4 lift options available. They are fast, rock and root filled downhill insanity! Body armor is almost a must! Check Alyeska's web site to see which lifts are running @ http://www.alyeskaresort.com/mountain/downhill-mountain-biking.aspx

Alyeska DH race. Soft snow. Good news is the lower mountain should open early this year (that's the rumor!!)
| ThankGreat, fun downhill single track. The locals work really hard on carving new trails so there is something for everyone. You can rent a bike and armour if you need it and they'll throw in a free lesson / guide at the same time which is a great deal if you're travelling without your bike.
| ThankGood riding. Service is the worst. From the sitzmark to the tram employees will make it abundantly obvious that its a privilege for you to be there. I have been a downhill guide in New Zealand, Whistler many times, 5 years in Utah for the riding. Regrettably went to Alyeska 2 times this summer for the same results. Never again for this DH rider.
| ThankI am coming from california this summer which I go to Alaska every summer and I always mountain bike here and would like to know if it is a great trail and if so do they rent bikes there or should I rent one from somewhere else
| ThankFun, fast and Awesome downhill action!
