This is the first chairlift access riding I've ever been too I wish I didn't bring my DH bike.
To start with 13.33 an hour to ride plus reservations being required and you are only being allowed 3 hours per trip make my expectations high (they are charging big hill pricing for 3 hours @ 40$, technically more expensive than whistler). They did have a couple of ok blue trails, a couple being the key word. When we were there they had 3 blue trails, one green and one black, were all that were open. The blue and green trails were fine. But and this is a big but, the one black was terribly put together. This is coming from someone who is quite comfortable on any of the double blacks at whistler. The problem with it is it isn't built for downhill bikes of today. Maybe for 26" wheels on short wheel base bikes, but for newer bikes stay away. This trail would be fun on my hard tail jump bike and that is about it.
This is technically in the city so you can only expect so much but this could be so much better with a better design and WAY WAY overpriced.
