All Operations Are OPEN!

The Bike Park is open today from 10 AM–6 PM! One last shower passed through this morning, so rocks, bridges, and features may be slick early—but trails will dry throughout the day. We’re on track for a great weekend of riding!

Not into biking? The Adventure Park is open from 10 AM–5 PM! Take a ride on the alpine coaster, hop on a scenic chairlift ride, and swing by the Riverside Bar & Grill for food and fun.

Operations Update: The Bike Park will be Closed Today (Friday, June 27) due to overnight rain and heavy fog. Trail crews will work to access the trails as the day goes on, allowing them to drain and dry out for the weekend. The plan is to reopen tomorrow, and it should be a great weekend of riding—stay tuned for any additional updates throughout the day!

The Adventure Park and Riverside Bar and Grill will still be open during normal hours! Come take a ride on the Alpine Coaster and enjoy the fun from 10 AM to 5 PM.

Full time Summer Hours start this Thursday!!! Operations run Thursday-Monday.

All operations open 10a-5p

Operations Update – Friday, June 13

All operations are scheduled to be open today from 10 AM to 5 PM, weather permitting. So far, things are looking good—it’s a perfect day to come out and beat the lines!

Most of the rain stayed south of us overnight, which puts the Bike Park in great shape to open on time at 10 AM. There is still a chance of rain today that could lead to temporary trail closures or delays, so be sure to check the Trail Report for the most up-to-date conditions.

We’re also stoked to announce that “The Things” (formerly Upper Happy Camper), including Things 1 and Thing 2, will be open today!

The Adventure Park is running as planned, and it’s a great day to grab an all-day wristband and lap the coaster with minimal wait times. If rain does roll in, some attractions may temporarily close to allow for drying and safe operation.

We’re actively monitoring the weather and hope it continues to cooperate, but we may need to adjust operations as the day progresses. Stay tuned here for updates, and thank you for your flexibility and support! #SeeYouAtSpirit
