Are they beaten to sh*ts? If so, is it better up on Garb or down low? Thx.

if youve got a dually it doesnt matter. no the trails arent in the best of conditions right now. garbonzo seems to be fine. aline was quite rutted in teh berms and same with DM. but who knows. they may have it fixed by this weekend.

I've having great times on Garbonzo. I'd go there. I haven't ridden No Joke since Crankworx though, but Original Sin and Freight Train are doing very well.

rode no joke tonight, fast fast fast! lots of great lines out there, they're working on a new section of freight train below caboose, after the rock to ladder bridge.......I'm so diggin the upper trails right now, whipped off 3 laps quick in between 3:15 and 4:00 today, so good.....

agreed i dont think ive ever seen A-line or DM in such sad shape..

more like a bomb-run then the carpet smooth rip it normally is...

best grit your teeth, and hold on tight if your planning on riding either of those trails...

Garbo is pimpin thou...lately im spending almost my entire day up top...only coming down to the village for food n drink and Schelyer...

parts of whistler dh are so chundered I could hardly hold on! Aline and dirt merch a bit worse for wear at the moment. Keep it quiet...but head up garbo for freight train>no joke>duffman>freight train. Such a fun line, and lower freight train is the best non chundered jumping on the hill right now. (I dont know about D1 though)

too toight had about 5cm's of fresh pow on the top section yesterday! I rode dm/a-line and didn't find it that bad...I dunno, I've been on a hardtail all season till last weekend though, so everything seems smooth on the bb7!

Agreed ... Too Tight had a layer of very loose (powder-like) dirt the whole ride down.

I always think my tires are flat when I'm on that trail...the dust makes the same noise as a flat rubber does.

The rain a few days ago has taken care of alot of the dust on Too Tight. It's nice again.
