Things are Shaping up Nicely at COP... Literally

May 14, 2005

The new DJ Park is bigger,better and more progressive than ever. It will
have jumps for the beginner all the way through to 18' foot doubles for
the advanced hucker. For the ultimate in convenience we placed the DJs near the Food Court, Slopeside Cycle and Emergency to cover all the
riders' bases. The West Trees have taken on more flow by eliminating a few criss-crossing of trails and with the new high speed quad on weekends and Wednesdays you'll now get twice the bang for your buck.The Drop Zone by the old DJs has been relocated to the Stunt Park which now includes a 4x4 trail gap. There have been some positive changes to the DH course. The middle section is almost finished being rebuilt. Some new tables have been placed at the bottom shooting the course across the hill to finish at the daylodge.

There is still snow thawing at the bottom so construction will still take
a couple of more weeks.

New projects include a new trail called Redline which will include many
larger jumps and features (Aline-style). Also an elevated shore-style
ladder trail named Anaconda where ladders will start at the end of Country Road and take you along the fenceline all the way to the bottom. Our main goal this year is to offer seamless rider progression from 0-60 in every aspect of the Bike Park.
