Keystone Bike Park: TNT Update

If you've been at Keystone Bike Park recently or if you've been checking in on social media, you may have learned that the upper part up TNT has been closed for the last couple of weeks. So what's going on? I got the tour of what's been done so far by the trail crew today and the changes to this trail should get riders pretty excited.


After the initial drop in to TNT, a massive left hand berm will send you into this section of more berms and huge jumps.
It's all about the details with even the landscaping is getting some good attention. Carins, and rocks have been strategically placed and trees were worked around throughout the trail.

Looking uphill at the series of berms that leads you into the lip of this right hand hip jump.

Trail crew members finish up the section that leads into a 25 ft. step down jump. You'll be able to send it deep on this one which will have a 35 ft. landing.
Weather pending, the trail crew has a goal of wrapping up this section of trail by the end of the first full week of August. From there, the crew has plans to start cutting the new blue trail from the top Dercum Mountain which will then connect to Eye of the Tiger.
