It's a 1/2 hour of goodness.

Watched most of it over last night and now, never knew merritt had trails like that! I need to get out more (and go ride in merritt.)

wow that will get you amped to go and ride,
great tune selection, i'd like to know the bands
thanks

Was that trail called Treats

No, the line was The Revival to The Tyrant to 3 Shot Willow to Lower Godey.

Is there a bike shop with maps or advice in town? I'd like to make a daytrip :)

Shuttleable? I only have a DH bike

I rode merrit alot 9 or 10 years ago when Bonzie bike shop waa in merrit Off Comstock there was 2 trails 98 99 then came Hornet a few years latter followed by treats. I am feeling the need to do a ride there after seening that vidio

Yeah you can shuttle the trails and you can buy the map at the tourist information where the trails end up. Map is quite old though and there's a lot of new trails on Iron mtn

Those trails were awesome!

Thanks! :)

The easiest way I found to get the map was to buy it at the info station where the connector and the coquihalla meet. The info booth is the easiest lower shuttle spot if your new to iron mtn.

The shuttle is the coquihalla towards van, exit at comstock rd.

There are no bikeshops in Merritt, you'll have to drive to kamloops if you want a presta tube.

It's been my experience that Merritt search and rescue sucks.

The riding on iron mtn is SICK, 3300' of vert with a shuttle you can get a car to within a 2 min push of the top.

message iron mtn hardcore if your going to merritt….chris is a builder there and he doesn't work during the summer so he's always down for a ride. He'll give you the grand tour.

Just to add, there are 3 trails off each tower. The left tower is more gnar then the right, that said even the right tower is gnar….there are no blue trails here.

The trail "98" is your safest option as a first run, it's a solid single black with the odd double black rock move. Most of the rock stuff has ride arounds but they are often overgrown and hard to spot.

Well I managed to watch it over a couple of days. Its well worth watching. I miss huge vertical shuttles.

May have to put this on the list of places to hit. Huge shuttles are fuuun
