Mammoth Bike Park Update 2007

April 10, 2007

Mammoth Mountain Bike Park 2007: open June 23 - Sept. 23

Trail Report - Last Updated: Apr 7, 2007 12:13 PM
Even though it has been a light snowfall year, trail crews have a lot of work to do to get the mountain ready for biking.

New for 2007: 3 New Freeride Trails

  • Techno Rock: a fast, technical expert-only trail from McCoy Station to the Main Lodge. With BIG rock drops and banked turns in the Super Pipe Techno Rock is a dirt-jumping run to the bottom.
  • Richter: a fast, upper-intermediate to advanced, tree-lined roller coaster ride off Kamikaze and Trail Home. Ladders, wooden bridges and plenty of berms. This trail completes the freeride path from the top of the mountain to the bottom.
  • Twilight Zone: this urban-inspired trail will become our “signature.” Hang a quick right halfway down Chain Smoke and get ready to accelerate through a series of linked wooden berms, over the Dragon, and end in the heart-pounding “deep-end”: a 32-foot wide, 10-foot tall, 180 degree banked turn.

Mammoth Mountain Wrap Up 2006

September 19, 2006

Mammoth Bike Park, California * September 2006

Mammoth Bike Park closes next weekend. This has been an awesome summer of riding at Mammoth that probably wouldn’t have happened for us had Northstar been open. When one door closes another opens and usually it’s better! It seemed like dhReno riders were shredding Mammoth almost every weekend.

The following is from the Mammoth Mountain Live Vibe site:  ”On Monday, June 5, the dig-out began. While the Mammoth snow report stated a base of 7 to 9 feet of snow, the bike crew brought out the snowblowers on the mountain’s lower measures. Live Vibe talked with Dave Geirman, who’s leading the battle against the heaviest winter at Mammoth by listing at least eight trails opening for June 24.”
