Sugar to Sweet One is a classic lap at Sun Peaks. Once a north shore styled, stunt riddled piece of singletrack, the trail was closed for logging for a few years to control the effects of Interior BC's notorious bark beetles. Now that Sweet One is complete, the lap is back with a more modern style. Check out the latest video from out Trail Crew as they show us that sometimes a flow trail and technical trail can be one in the same.

Sun Peaks trail update

Although this trail duo is now complete top-to-bottom, that's far from the end of the story for this revived relic of the old school days. The Trail Crew will continue to work on flow enhancement and addressing bridge work in this same vein, replacing with a focus on flow in and out of these features. But, more importantly, now that the trail itself is complete they'll be busy adding features back into Sweet One to bring it back to its former glory - a 100ft log ride over the creek is the first instalment to this end, open now!

The mixed bag that is "mountain weather" has provided the perfect storm for growing conditions over the past couple weeks and the crew has been out to brush cut a number of trails and fend back the ever-encroaching greenery; Behind Bars, Keener, Honey Drop, Route 66, and Altitude have all been considerably trimmed back.Some of our flow trails were starting to see the effects of the dry spring and have just been given a good buff to smooth the rougher sections; Smooth Smoothie, Holy Rollers, Repeat Offender, and Steam Shovel have all been given some love. That's all for this update. Stay tuned for more updates to Sweet One and in the meantime, get up here to shred this legendary Sun Peaks lap for yourself. See you on the trails!
