Hey Marshal, remember that kid you sold your bike rack to this morning? That's the grom I mentor with big brothers big sisters.
Here is ripping down some black diamond at Snowbasin on his hybrid commuter hardtail.

Trails are nice in the north
Sent from my iPhone using TGR ForumsI need to go to Utah.
Utah?
Yeah, Utah. It's wedged in between Wyoming and Nevada. You've seen pictures of it, right?
So after 15 years we finally made it to Utah.....
Thanks BCSAR and POWMOW Ski Patrol for rescues

25 years ago, there was much, much more of (picture number 2) riding, and I miss it. It was a particular skill set that not a lot of Rocky Mountain people get to master. Everything gets cut out now.

You’re right. I have yet to figure out how to ride over Jack strawed Lodgepole, old growth cedar, a nasty hairy spruce…the list goes on. I actually can’t tell if you are being sarcastic in this post🤷♂️. Trying to keep up with rideit humor

Ride-it, agreed too much flow sometimes, not enough techy OG nonsense. I love fresh deadfall. Came up to this one back in the spring and cleared off just enough to make it rideable. Was expecting it to get fully cut out quickly, fortunately they only chopped out a go-around and left the main line, you can see the fresh cut. I do a lot of trail work and do the same. Don’t ramp, learn the bump jump.
Edit - Rode my local lunch loop and counted 15 log-overs in 6 miles. Ranging from 6" to about 2', many of which are optional, especially the bigger ones.

Laughs as east coaster, though obviously depends on speed, steepness and room between them. Took me quite a while to get the timing of the double trees, pic 2 that ride-it called out above, as they are just long enough for wheelbase between them. So you’re initiating the front wheel lift before rears wheel is fully rolled off first one.
On the flip side we definitely dont have many progressive flow trails around here, so get good at what you have access to.

Speed is high due to steepness which is for real. About 2 bike lengths between the trees. First time I tried without the rocks I was slightly off on the timing, clipped the back wheel on the 1st tree, and got launched otb. Managed to put both hands on the 2nd tree and push off then went face first into the dirt. Could have been ugly so the rocks were moved into place. And I really wanted to use the mossy one, it's not every day you find moss in UT!

I'm not a fan of natural wood speed bumps. They can be especially annoying with the new bikes and the low and slack geo.
I could see including features like them tho on a slow, sort of semi awkward tech trail if people are into that.
But on a fast ripper? Like they force ya to grab a bunch of brake in the middle of some flowy fun? I saw em out.dirtbag, not a dentist
