There is still some fun XC stuff up there. EN01 is run. Fern, Speedos. Still fun to mess around with every so often.

so do you think it would be worth it to drive up for the day, also what does it cost, because i dont see anything on the website.

$20 to ride the lift all day

if im riding XC should I still, ride the lift, i would guess all the trails start too far up to climb, as the longest climb ive done was about 8 miles, and tottally not worth the down hill.

Nargaredama and I were up there, which bike were you on? I was on a silver Saber and he was on a silver 575.

For those who weren't there it ended up raining on and off Sunday and Monday which made the trails nice and tacky. :biggrin:
