Is this a solid mountain for beginners/intermediates?
@pedalingdownhill764012 күн бұрын
Id say yes to that, especially when they are closer to 100% open. They have glade runs as well. (When there is enough snow)

OH BOY that's some crazy shit! I dunno if I'm ready for Cliff Claven or that big drop! Your riding is top notch lately buddy! Awesome! GREAT video! Thunder Mountain should pay you or at least give you a discount on seasons passes, because you've become quite the cheerleader and ambassador for Thunder Mountain, showing off their awesome trails and features! Your videos got me hooked, and made me want to come to Thunder Mountain in the first place. Once there, Thunder Mountain lived up to the hype and more - Thunder Mountain is AMAZING!

@pedalingdownhill76402 ай бұрын
I think they are comparable to Hawleywood, about 9-10ft drop to the Dirt itself. The difference is in how steep it is, not crazy so but I'd say a bit more than Hawleywood.

Lol not Bob Gnarly! Soon as you said that I knew what was about to go down that is a straight old school punisher. Good riding despite the challenges. I will say that even though it's almost always dry and blown out this mountain really pushes you. If anyone wants to be prepared for the black tech or even the braking bumps at whistler this is the ticket in the northeast.

I've only been to Thunder Mountain Bike Park once (for two days of riding at the end of June 2024), but I gotta say - this place is just frickin' AWESOME. There are SO MANY great trails (27 total!) so there's PLENTY of variety, and I don't know how anyone could get bored of this place! Also, if there's a few trails closed down temporarily, there's still tonnes of other trails to ride! On top of all of that, the maintenance and care that Thunder Mountain Bike Park does is amazing, and seeing how they keep their trails in great shape as much as possible just makes me want to go back at least twice a year, even though I live 8 hours away in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. I WISH we had something comparable closer to where I live. Man I miss this place!
