FIS appears to really like the course.
I actually had one of the easier days on course today. There is just not enough extra snow to really try and get too busy with it, at least where I got sent. Felt almost guilty, but my body is thankful.

My group did quite a bit of B-net work today. Carrying 50lb B-net rolls on your shoulder while sliding down Golden Eagle is fairly difficult.

It really is quite amazing sometimes that stuff isn’t coming down that hill more often. Carrying some of that stuff across the brink and then down the course can be a little stressful as well as the physical challenge. Good getting that other access open. Sleep well.

Bike parks can’t even make enough to stay open 7 days a week in September. The best riding of the year.
I just lost the majority of my single track today, to seasonal wildlife closures.

Heritage Square would be perfect. Build all the other stuff that people pay for too. Alpine slides, ropes courses, bungee jumping, etc. Visible from I70.
I think it could be done, but yeah, liability would be hudge. I feel like most CO ski areas are half assing their bike parks these days anyway.
If you had a legit bike park with well built and maintained trails, high end rentals, near Denver, and ran it well, I bet you could make thousands of dollars!

12-01-2021, 08:18 AM #34816Someone friggin develop a year round lift served mtn bike mountain in the Front Range. It would kill it.
Here is the Survey Monkey for the proforma business plan:
How far are you willing to drive?
How much are you willing to pay per day?
How much would you pay for an annual pass?
Would a non-lift (E DH or ATV shuttle type thing) work for you?
What are the lowest/hotest temps you would ride in?
What products and services besides access would you be interested in?
What do you think about the Pawnee Grass Lands or BLM outside of Canyon or West Grand County?

Man, the fact that we are discussing DH mountain biking in December definitely displays the current state of skiing in CO. Hopefully it scares some folks to move away! It is almost convincing me to.
I wish it would snow, that is all.

This is the part when we discuss building new ski areas to "spread the crowds", especially ones that get low snowfall and high winds, because the premier resort sites are locked up in Wilderness (and there are some good ones) or already developed.
I've got a spot for a Silverton style mountain within 100 miles of Denver. Standard FS land. Steep as fuck. Great elevation and aspect. Send me your investment and we'll see if the land managers will "never allow it".

I think the Heritage site would be great for this. Have some BC gates with trails down into Apex
Or continue to develop Floyd Hill and Maryland Mtn but throw an old chair in there.
Is Trestle not a legit bike park?
I don’t want to build and run this thing…but I do think with climate change it’s very viable as a year round venture. Someone else figure that shit out.

Heritage Square is doomed to be a gravel mine. Gotta feed the front range development beast.
