Blue Mtn is okay - nothing special. It's offa Dewdney Trunk road
In my opinion the woodlot kicks the shores ass. Try to hook up with someone who can show you around.
Bear mountain isnt to far away either not to mention eagle/burke

You'll be right beside Woodlot! Awesome riding for sure.. PM me if you wanna meet up and I can show you the good trails. There's a new trail , but a guy in Abbotsford broke his back on it, so I don't think you'll want to ride that one..

The trails name is Platinum and it just opened up..... its a really sweet trail with top notch building. I think it sets a new standard in trail building.
I'd say the level of difficulty on this trail is equal to Overflow.
Good luck trying to find it.... may I suggest a local.

Good call, I know there was some tension up there. One of the NORCO guys was really pissed off. Unfortunately because of his temper tantrum he nearly got into a fight with a couple of other riders that I know. I think that NORCO knows who this guy is and they should also know that he is not being a good ambassador for the company. I am not centering my criticism on NORCO as I know there are lots of cool people involved in the company. I would much rather recieve a level headed and polite invitation to stay away like you have posted here.

Did you skip anything on it? The only stuff I didnt do is the 6 pack/couple gaps that weren't worth the hike back up. i know a guy who broke his back on the 6 pack so i didn't wanna be a part of that.
the trail is for sure madd flowy.. my fav trail around here now.

Ya I passed up the six pack also. But I will return to flow the entire trail. It was ment to be.

That trail is sweet, It defintely requires a lot of commitment to flow the stunts. And it is also the only way to ride the trail, all flow

Is the 2nd gap easy ? It seems like it's too big for the size of the first one.. Ie , carry enough speed in, then overshoot first..
I wanna follow someone in to them to see.. I don't like skipping stuff :P

I still like the coaster to drop and the gap over the drop the best..
It woulda been cooler if the gap over the drop was a bit higher and stuff, it's not really a challenge to clear the ladder u know? oh well still fun..

my first try i thought i would need lots of speed and got it all messed up.second try i thought i was way to slow but it worked out perfect,although i cleared the last one with lots of room to spare.just come in with enough speed to clear the first one.............pump the trannies............and away you go.
