Description

Creekside is an advanced alternative to the bottom of Tenderfoot.

Starting at a three-way intersection with Tenderfoot (just past the quick descent from the giant boulder), pedal uphill a few yards and then turn left onto the trail.

A feet of flat terrain quickly turns into some challenging fun as the drop begins to drop. Unlike Tenderfoot and the other trails in the bike park, Creekside is a throw back to the days when you had to expect the unexpected.

The trail is ever changing with roots in all directions and rocks that hide little drops.

The trail stays above the creek a first but then drops to the same level, crossing a few bridges in the process.

The end of the route spits you out onto Burgess Creek Rd. Turn left and ride back to the ski area. You'll come into the lower part of the mountain at the intersection at the top of Wranglers and Zig Zag.
