mmmmm very nice addition to Garbo Zone, flowy table and gappers and hippers, and there is multiple lines and hits, some are rather large, and lower NoDuff is bermed out a little too before GT…..nice job mother nature for providing the rain needed to get this sucker open…..

78 days? Where did that number come from? Seeing as how it was under closed all last summer as well, I would guess the number should be higher.

Sidetrack is awesome! It's butter-smooth right now. Hit it before the braking bumps develop.

One weird thing tho: after the jumps there's a flat straightaway and it looked like an option trail broke off starting with a dirt roll in to a step-up onto a rock. It didn't look normal Bike park style though because there was chunder everywhere but the jump looked well built. I got onto the rock but the only way off was a 15 to 20 footer to a very flat wide landing. No tire tracks. I had to hike back up to the trail. I hope they either finish the drop (build up a tranny) or rope off the entrance because the potential for disaster is there.

McTB, that step up your talking about is actually the second part to a much bigger stunt. next time your there take a look up up up and across the trail, there is a nice big road/trail gap which crosses over top of Side Track down into the gully you mentioned and into the step up onto the rock. I assume this is a movie stunt as there is now way they'd ever ever open something like that for the masses. Well at least I hope not.

Yeah the drops you guys are seeing are Schley's drops from Unchained.

Something must have really changed about the lower one cause last year it was almost 30' to a super-steep tranny. Gotta check it out and see what's going on…
