Brundage Bike Park Open
The Brundage Trail crew is flying through its yearly trail work, with nearly all of the most popular bike and hiking trails already open — including the stunning Rock Garden and Lakeview Vista Trails, which offer scenic beauty at every turn.
This route connects to the new Brundage to Bear Basin (B2BB) Trail, a 6+ mile multi-use intermediate trail that links these two trail systems while serving up an enjoyable ride for bikers headed either direction. Brundage Mountain has 30+ miles of single-track for downhillers and XC riders to explore. Summer Trail Report
