Here is a map of the mountain biking terrain at the Bush.

At the beginning of the summer the trail network was a work in progress but the Sugarbush trail crew did an amazing job building and renovating the long neglected trails since last summer was the first time in many years the Bush had lift-served mountain biking. More improvements are currently underway. Lift is scheduled to be open 6/27.

A freestyle park was also built.

There is a rental shop and at least one ski patrolman is on duty everyday. As mentioned by others there are easy, intermediate and expert trails down.

my wife got a kick out of your comment Tim! she then went on to say "so, what, you want a new mountain bike for Father's Day?"

But if the time comes when you want to get a new bike shoot me off a PM.

Thanks, i may take you up on the offer, SOON!!

I want to get here some time this year. If you check out the online trail map, click on one of the trail names and it will play a video od someone riding then entire trail top to bottom with a helmet cam. They have some pretty intense trails!

I don't think Mt Snow would let you ride that bike on the life served trails. Time for a new bike!
