Brookdale Lodge is haunted af = those goose bumps. My family built the cabin just up creek and as a kid i would spend my summers there. Hells Angles used the lodge as headquarters at one time. When my mom was a wee girl her and cousins would pour dish soap in the creek making a bubbly experience for lodge goers. It was hard to see it in disrepair for so long. so glad its up and goin again. Flow is best on a hard tail in the spring hero dirt even tho ridge hurts with that set up its so worth it. Nice vid

Wow! You sir have really lucked out on your timing! All the fires up here have ravaged air quality (forget how hot it is still up here at 7 pm). When I say ravaged, I mean its so obliterated that I'm ordering Lifestraws and packing bug-out bags. Been trying to get a ride in and its so smokey it would be seriously difficult and unwise. Your timing could not have been better.

New to the channel, new fan! Love the vids and commentary man. Was there a noticeable difference from the 🟦 of Sawpit and the black diamond of Ridge? Sawpit almost seemed more gnarly from the vid, but I get the GoPro effect. SC is next on my list for a MTB trip. Cant believe nobody else around in your vid. Not busy? Any truth to the rumors that you can find shuttles to the top to avoid the climbs?

@TheOutsiderMTB 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Chad - welcome! Ridge was black diamond I think because of the two steep sections I came across. I'd say Sawpit was a hard blue in spots, but not any crazy features. I went during the week so it wasn;t busy, but weekends I know can be. Thanks!
