It's hasn't completely opened yet. Yesterday Garbonzo was closed. The lower section of freight train has 10-15 jumps, including sweet step up/step down and some big berms.

yeah lower freight train has some amazing berms and decent size hits. You have to access it from duffman right after the no duff trail entrance. The ride down no joke, and upper duffman makes for a great change between upper and lower freight train.

Why don't you link us to the day to day "open trails" page on the whistlerbike.com website?

I think asking on a dedicated "Whistler" discussion forum is pretty appropriate, and a lot easier than calling a general inquires Whistler line and getting transferred two dozen times until you get a recorded message telling you that someone isn't in right now and will call you back.

The Train WILL NOT be totally open until the end of July if at all, with all the weather the crew is having issues building up Garbo, we may not see it til the end of the year or next year.....remember Aline took 4 years to get it where it is today....
