Lift Access bike park in Texas
Spider Mountain sits next to Lake Buchannan in central Texas

There are a lot of mountain bikers in Texas, but not a lot of mountains, so a lift-access bike park should be great news for Lone Star riders. Spider Mountain offers 350 feet of elevation and a four-person chair-lift that will operate Monday through Sunday year 'round. If you hail from Colorado or Switzerland, 350 feet of elevation might seem laughable, but if you live in Texas, you'd have to travel out of state to find a lift access bike park - or a real life mountain range, for that matter. Spider Mountain is located in the Highland Lakes area in central Texas, about an hours' drive from Austin and accessible from Dallas, San Antonio, and Houston.

You can overnight at the resort's Thunderbird Lodge, and take advantage of Lake Hodges, which borders the bike park. Day passes run $50 for adults (ages 19-59) and $45 for all others. Season passes are also available for a limited time at $199 for adults (ages 19-59 years) and $149 for all others, valid January 19 through April 30, 2019.

Spider Mountain is owned and operated by Durango-Colorado based Mountain Capital Partners, who also own Purgatory Resort, Arizona Snowbowl, Sipapu Ski & Summer Resort, Pajarito Mountain, Hesperus Ski Area, Nordic Valley Ski Resort, and Purgatory Snowcat Adventures. MCP offers a comprehensive "Power Pass" that gives access to all of its resorts, and will include Spider Mountain as well.

Lift Access bike park in Texas


From the press release:

With a variety of trails for all abilities and 350 feet of vertical, Spider Mountain ’s lift-served bike park features include downhill flow trails, and technical trails with bridges, berms, jumps, and more. The bike park is designed and developed by Hogan Koesis, director of mountain biking for Mountain Capital Partners, which owns and operates Spider Mountain and six ski resorts. Koesis has more than a decade of experience in the biking industry, designing, developing and constructing trails.

“It’s exciting to be the first lift-served bike park in the US that’s open year-round and bring progressive mountain biking terrain to Texas,” stated Koesis. “Until now, this type of lift-accessed terrain was only available in a ski resort setting. The new Spider Mountain Bike Park is unlike anything else in Texas.”

 There's 5 trails and one being built making 6. The plan is to open a new trail every 3 weeks or so and pushing the trail count going forward. There is no reason in the next couple years that we won't have about 20-30 trails on this mountain. The really cool thing about this mountain is that we get to use 360 degrees of the mountain in all directions. We have so much terrain to use! Stoked to build for the masses in Texas!!!

 $50 seems like kind of a lot for 350 vert and 4 trails. But either way, hopefully the business works out for them.

 Seems like more than a lot considering my pass at Northstar cost $58 this past July.

 @femto505: sure, if you buy a brand new one. But used lifts, especially short ones that only serve 350 vert, can be had for pretty cheap. If you shop around a bit, you can probably have a lift installed for a good bit less than $1M.

www.resortboneyard.com/l/lifts

There are plenty of ski hills that only operate for a couple months of the year and still have lift tickets that are less than $50.
  • 7 0
 $50 is cheap for a park that' doesn't have ski operations. Bike parks would not exist as we know them today if it weren't for the infrastructure and resort economy of the ski industry. Lift tickets are cheap at all other resorts because the cost is offset by money earned during winter operations. A bike-only resort is a massive investment and they won't be getting rich from it anytime soon.
  • 7 0
 Proximity is worth a lot. It's going to come out a lot cheaper for locals than a lift ticket anywhere else, once you factor in travel and lodging. Growing up in LA I paid a lot more for Mountain High ski tickets than they were "worth" compared to Mammoth or Tahoe, but I could go there for night ski after work instead of planning a multi-day trip.

That said, who needs a lift to go up 350 feet? Smile

 Hate to say it...... but $50 lift tickets for a couple of 3 minute featureless trails is gonna make sure it’s a ghost town for a long time.

 @toast2266: Installed for less than $1M? Keep dreaming! Yea, you may be able to buy one for less than $1M, but shipping it, refurbing/replacing components, preparing the site, excavating the site, installing, and running/hooking up utilities is gonna push you way over the $1M mark.

 I've ridden and helped dig at the place and while the price tag is a bit of a surprise to me here's what I think they're getting at. Season passes are only $200, which for a bikepark open year round every day is a pretty fantastic deal and what most of the riders there on a given day will be riding with, especially if the rider is from Austin. The $50 daily pass seems to be to me a reasonable way to cash in on day-trippers in from Dallas, Houston, etc. and less enthusiast, more casual enjoyers of the sport. While the price is a bit steep consider it similar to the $20-30 you spend visiting a bowling lane- obviously a ridiculous price to pay for an enthusiast, but not so to a more casual audience. All in all I'll be picking up that season pass and let the daily pass owners pay the bills on the place.

 @SlodownU: Local resort installed a fixed grip triple for $1.29M three years ago, and that included the cost to cut all the ski runs around it. It has a lot more than 350' vert, and it's on the backside of the hill, so it's not very accessible. Same deal at Bridger - they spent $1.2M on the Schlasman's lift, which is 1700' vert of steep, rocky, cliffy terrain. Almost all of the towers are perched in tricky places. I can think of a few other lifts that were installed for right around $1M, all of which are a lot longer, and are running up way steeper terrain than the one at this bike park.

Not saying that lift installation is cheap by any means, but unless they're buying new or installing a detachable, they ought to be able to get a short lift like that up and running for less than a million.

 Good on them, more options for local riders and for those winter months when a person craves warmth and dirt!
I think some of you are missing the point. I'm under the impression this place was built from scratch (IE: not on an existing ski/ multi use area [ yes, I do realize this is Tx] , 4 trails is a good start. Yes, there is room for growth, but the Whistlers of the world were not built in a day.
  • 10 25
flag Lotusoperandi (Jan 7, 2019 at 13:01) (Below Threshold)
 Yeah, because the Whistlers of the world were built over eons of glaciation and uplift. No matter how many trails this place builds it will never be a Whistler. So I wouldn't use this line in your argument.
  • 11 2
 @Lotusoperandi: the point wasn’t that it will be equal to whistler... it’s that there was no pre existing resort there and that 4 trails is an awesome beginning.
  • 20 0
 It's actually really fun. The beginner trail is fun and flows well, the intermediate trail is a pinner singletrack and the two expert trails are steep, rock and challenging. I checked it out on my Kenevo in early November. No, its not Whistler but for riders in Austin, Dallas and Houston it's a lot closer than Angel Fire.

flag hubsession (Jan 7, 2019 at 13:30) (Below Threshold)
 Please don’t mention this place and Angel Fire in the same sentance. This is just like all riding spots in Austin. Crumbled limestone instead of dirt, built by inexperienced trail builders, and ridiculous fee’s to ride. If you live in Texas and love mountain biking, do yourself a favor and MOVE.
  • 28 1
 @FindDigRideRepeat: I beg to differ. It's actually a lot better than your description. There's some really good dirt and serious capital long term that is going into this project. It wasn't built by inexperienced trail builders. The greens and blues were built by former employees of gravity logic that moved onto better things, ya know, the people that built whistler...

 2 hours vs 2 day drive. No question this opens up opportunities. Drive up Friday night, come home Sunday evening. We hit it once a month and saved our AFBP money for Whistler.

 @FindDigRideRepeat: You really need to check out the Austin ride areas or move back to whatever hole you crawled from. Arguably, Austin was the first mountain bike city. Bicycle Sport Shop was the first MTB shop in the state, opened by Wes and Cody Williams, and sold to Hill Abell. The Barton Creek Greenbelt was barely a horse path, and Emma Long Park's motorcycle trails welcomed the MTBs. Trails were blazed by riders, not groomed handicapped-accessible paths. You build trails using the geologic and morphologic landforms of the area. You want blocky basalts, check the Big Bend area. Oh, that's either private or NPS-no-ride-zones. You want "dirt" then go ride the mud of the Ho Chi Minh trail. But don't rag on Austin riding.

 As a dedicated Texan mountain biker I can’t tell y’all how excited I am to see where the sport goes in the coming years. Sure we have hills instead of mountains but what we do not lack in is community. We have have plenty of mountain bikers here that are ready to pack up vehicles and drive a couple hours to dig all morning and ride all night.
Most of our land is private making it hard to develop, but to those land owners that allow us crazies to come out and build progressive trails and push the boundaries of what people thought was possible in Texas, THANK YOU!
Y’all come visit sometime!

 Yup. You don’t have to look at his profile. You can tell he’s a Texas from all the y’all’s.

 haha all the Texas haters... what I love the most is how most of us texans live at about 600'> elevation and go podium at most of the DH and Enduro races up in the mountains, and like 15-20 times the elevation... not acclimated to altitude... I think that speaks for itself.. we may not have lots of elevation or shitty attitudes like many of you but we have plenty of trails that will challenge anyone

 ???? That’s funny.. Pretty easy to hate Texas. Lived there for 25 years and it’s hands down one of the most boring, hot, over populated, cookie cutter, douchiest places to live. It’s the new California but with horrible weather and no scenery.
  • 2 1
 Funny that it always seem to be Texans that complain about elevation at races. Meanwhile, there’s all the Californians from the coast that are also at sea level and still end up winning without whining. For example: Kate Courtney, Curtis Keene, and Aaron Gwin. Then there’s east coasters like Richie Rude and Jeremy Bishop who also just get it done.

Just saying....

 I’m so pleased to be a small part of this cool new spot, and it wasn’t because of my awesome biking or shoveling skills I just happen to have a few go pros and drones. I, along with dozens of local Texas riders helped TEAMTRAILPARTY led by Jeremiah Work, build the two black diamond trails ,and there’s nothing like them anywhere in Texas. The amount of fun mixed with pucker is amazing however short ,but will elevate your stoke to 11. Not sure why TEAMTRAILPARTY wasn’t commissioned to build more trail there, but Jeremiah knows what he is doing. Some d bag said these trails looked like “run of the mill single track “ from looking at 1 promo video. If anyone wants to see how wrong and off base he is, I have lots of videos of Spider Mountain’s “coming of age” . By checking out my race runs from the first ever race there, (also put on by TEAMTRAILPARTY &JWork) You’ll see nothing “run of the mill” for our area.
Someone said it but I’ll reiterate, to have a dedicated, purpose built BIKE PARK is special. To b the first in TX is special. To offer 5 trails is killer. Two of them are black !? That’s rad. A jump flow line? Sick. The lift is just a cherry on top. To be sat on a lake that size with boat and Jetski rentals,... AND A FULL RESORT TO STAY AT? Dope on dope on dope. To all who spit ???? on this thread, stay home if it’s so bad. More for us. Peace.

Kudos to Hogan Koesis for what he did to develop Angel Fire as one of the best bike parks in North America.

Spider Mountain is owned and operated by Durango-Colorado based Mountain Capital Partners, who also own Purgatory Resort, Arizona Snowbowl, Sipapu Ski & Summer Resort, Pajarito Mountain, Hesperus Ski Area, Nordic Valley Ski Resort,.

Hogan's success with this project will likely put him further in a position to further expand the sport with the multiple mountains listed above. Who doesn't want to see that?

More power to him and this project.

 I moved to FL from the DFW area, and Texas may as well be Whistler compared to anything in Florida. This venue may be corporate owned, but it would have never happened without the hard grassroots work of many riders and clubs across the state to grow the sport.

 @lardo5150: Word is Mt. Magazine (highest point in the state) is getting lift served trails. Last thing I heard is there isn't enough work force to make the project happen quick enough so they are recruiting. I don't know the exacts, but I don't see why there can't be 900'-1200' of elevation loss on that mountain. Maybe upwards of 1500'.

 I guess another question is should I fly down with my DH bike, or just stop at Walmart and Grab a Huffy on the way.

 Grab a huffy and save some cash b/c your likely to break both! I’m a weekend warrior with a dad bod and have broken more frames in the 4 years living in the Austin than the 18 previous years of living in Santa Fe and Durango!
