Kirkwood used to have biking at their resort in the summer and I think they still have it but I hear it is lame and I highly doubt that it is anywhere close to Northstar's league. As for other ski resorts, there aren't any. Just Northstar, Mammoth, and maybe Kirkwood but Northstar kills any other resorts in Nor-Cal.

I think I had 16 visits to Northstar on my season pass last season. Hopefully I can get up there a lot more though, I can't live without Northstar. Both to David and Jonathon, we gotta ride together more because it is so much more fun riding with people near your level. I'm sure we will be seeing eachother up there a lot.

for sure, stoked on riding gypsy again

its not so much as a race team as it is a sick group to ride with. they do some races but mostly just ride around reno and norcal

When the snow melts, it opening date differs every year but the trail crew pushes really hard to open sooner and they shovel lots of snow.

Hey has anyone ridden the waterfall on Karpiel? I've never attempted it because it justs looks to gnarly from the chairlift but I've seen people do it easy.
