For those of us who aren't as hardcore as others, Snowbasin is a real treat. It's cheaper and closer for me than Deer Valley, and I really like the trails...just one fat, old guy's opinion! :mrgreen:

I called Snow Basin this last Friday and they said that the trails were not open to mountain bikes as they were too wet still. I went to Deer Valley instead for a little practice for the upcoming DH races. I had not been there since 2002. I was surprised at the amount of new trails and wood stunts. Thieves Forest and Fire swamp seemed more rutted than usual. Somehow I cracked my frame and I am looking for an experienced aluminum welder to make a repair. Does anybody know if there are any downhill trails at Snow Basin? I know that Go-Ride was going to hold a race there a few years ago.

So the frame went ahead and finally cracked, huh? That sucks. Hope you can get it fixed.

BTW, I called Snowbasin today, and everything sounded fine.

The trails at Snowbasin are XC trails. There are no trails like you described at Deer Valley.
