Description

Saddle Up Trail is an advanced route that requires some know-how. The trail starts a few hundred feet west of the Christmas Lift next to a small ski race start house. The trail starts with quite a shallow grade, but becomes steeper the further you venture from the lift...

This is a professionally built freeride trail with all the elements you'd expect - stacked with large jumps and steep berms before ending with multiple banked turns before exiting on to Christmas Lane and returning to Christmas lift. (New construction done summer of 2019 that makes the last mile a smoother ride)
