Russian Jack Springs Park offers five downhill lines along with an XC loop on top of the hill and a climbing route to ascend the ~300 vertical feet.
The single climbing route and five downhill routes form a bike park-style layout. The downhill trails offer a wide range of different styles to choose from, including "a tech trail, jump trails, a variety of trails, and then a few other outside loops, and some drop options and things like that," said Carl Battreall, Project Manager for Alaska Trails. The tech trail was hand-built to give it a raw flavor. As for the jump trails, there are three jump lines, each with its own character. Riders will find "a green beginner jump line, a bigger intermediate jump line, and then a jump line that has mostly just shark fins and all kinds of crazy like different angles for people who like to jib off things and do it differently." Finally, there's a downhill line with some jumps and a few climbs mixed in that provides a more cross country flavor.
