Gnarnaimo. The one time I rode the seven summits trails that last 6km was a blown out mess. I’m jealous that you got some flow out of it. Sounds like a great trip!

228 - We conquered the Seven Summits of Rossland. 37 km and 1200 meters of technical alpine riding at heights 2000 meters above what we are acclimated to. The ride was beautiful and scenic, challenging and relentless, but pretty enjoyable (most of the time). The finally of the ride is a smooth flowy 6 km blue descent which makes you feel like a hero after 31 km of hand pounding, technical alpine. Was a pretty amazing experience.

My friend we were staying with in Nelson told us the same thing. I thing they have reworked that descent as it's been a super dry year and it holding together nicely. Very fast, flowy and smooth.

Haha, not yet, but the squeaking is practically as loud as one.

We tagged that descent as a bonus shuttle right after some rain, butter smooth single track and high-speed hollering was had!

You better get a "69" raceplate for that rig.

68: Sulfur, Pneuma and Race of Spades lap - lots of puddles, random snow above 7-27, tacky dirt, slippery roots. Made it out before too dark, but we all had lights just in case.

Got that fall hero dirt this weekend, I forgot how nice it was to rip around on the loam and leaves instead of the moondust and shale
