I saw/heard the news also. To me it seems kind of silly to run lift serviced for just over 300 vertical feet. I realize you don't need lots of vertical for MTB, however the terrain serviced by that lift seems very mellow.

That said...I have never ridden the SB MTB trails...curious what they are like...I know most of the trails are interspersed in the XC ski trail network. Curious to know how they compare to in the CValley trail network...Is it worth the trip?
