The West Loop is the longest trail at the PUMP, running 1.29 miles. This beginner loop snakes its way through the forest as it climbs roughly 50 feet to its highest point before returning to the trailhead. The West Loop easily connects with the 1.26-mile East Loop, another beginner trail very similar to the West Loop. Both East and West Loops have intermediate options and have a clockwise direction.
Access to the Intermediate and Expert Jump Lines will be from the East Loop. The Intermediate Jump Line is just under a quarter of a mile and gradually descends from PUMP’s Gravity Hub. Riders can expect 10-15 foot table tops, berms, rocky tech, and rollable drops. The Expert Jump Line descends two-tenths of a mile from the Gravity Hub off the East Loop and incorporates wooden features, 15-25 foot tables, and rock gardens. It will also start with a drop/rock roll feature as a squirrel catcher.
Between the East and West Loops will be the Skills Area and Pumptrack. The Skills Area will cover over half an acre and feature various elements such as bridges, rock gardens, narrow milled logs, rock rolls, berms, and small jumps. Covering three-quarters of an acre, the pumptrack’s main loop will be more mellow, allowing riders of all ages and skill levels to ride. There will be alternate lines off the main loop that will allow more experienced riders to challenge themselves.
