I'll be out there with a large group from work. If you see the RXN trailer say hi.

I rate the hills as followed (and it's just my personal opinion):
- Bell, always on the first day, (I like riding Bell the best)
its not a huge riding area but its fun, playing on the back side of little Bell, the Bowl on Big Bell
and the Meadows.
- directions = take highway toward PG, watch for signs, you'll be turning left onto Bell Mountain Road. Not sure how
many Km's from town.

- Renshaw, the second day, (if the trail is rough, it's 32km of hell).
biggest play area, most popular as mentioned.
- directions = run hwy back toward Tejuan, turn left after bridge, at stop sign turn left again, follow to parking
lot.

- Lucille, I like to do Lucy on the last day, I find it steep and I'm not a hill climber. Lots of trees to play in, lots of fun.
- Directions = Drive through town, hang a left at the tracks, follow signs

thank you so muchr rxn. i wish more people were open to giving real riders advice about thier riding areas. and the directions is just icing on the cake. i hate going to a new area, spending hours trying to find the place, then riding all day not really sure if its right in the first place. especially when alot of us drive 5-10hrs plus to get there for a day or 2.

Map I made isn't 100% but it is close enough to get you pointed in the right direction. Remember to bring cash with you, as there is a $20/sled trail fee, which is paid at the booths in the parking lots at Bell and Lucille, the booth for Renshaw is a short ways up the trail. a 3 day pass runs you $55.

This should help a bit, feel free to ask any questions you need answered.
