The weather gods have been merciful this year, as we cut new flow trails for the Colorado Mountain College Spring Valley campus near Glenwood Springs, CO.
We've started off the project with the implementation of a new green beginner trail as well as an advanced expert rated trail.
Green Flow Trail
The beginner trail is approximately 1 mile in length and will be situated between the existing climbing trail and the blue descent trail. This trail will provide the easiest route down the network paralleling the service road and existing climbing trail, with few obstacles. Beginner trails are the first step to a well designed network that allows for new riders to become accustomed to the terrain and progress their skills.
Black Flow Trail
The advanced descent trail is approximately 1.04 miles in length, providing steeper grades and opportunities for higher speeds. Expert riders will get several opportunities to challenge themselves with the incorporation of large basalt deposits along the alignment. In addition to the technical terrain, this trail will include approximately 10 jumps, features and numerous berms.
