With warm temperatures and sunny skies to dry out the trails, Jackson Hole's mountain bike scene is now in full swing. In town, people are getting out and enjoying local trails off of Snow King Resort and up Cache Creek while die-hards are heading up to Teton Pass for some more technical up and downhill rides.
For those looking to get out on the trails or test their skills against town's best, don't miss the Cache Creek to Game Creek Mountain Bike Race next Wednesday, June 25th. Teton County/Jackson Parks and Recreation Department and Hoback Sports will be hosting the annual race next week. It begins at Mike Yokel Park at 5:00pm. Racers are reminded that Cache Creek and Game Creek Trails are shared-use trails and bikers must yield to all other users when training for and participating in this race. The race will take place from approximately 5:15pm until 8:00pm on the Cache Creek and Game Creek Trails. For more information, contact Jim Harkness, 307-733-5056.
If a recreational ride is in your near future, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort offers a ride up the mountain with your bike so that you can skip the uphill and just enjoy the cruise down. And if you're not a racer and are just looking to get out and have a good time on the trails, make sure to check in with your nearest bike shop to get the latest rundown on trail conditions and required ability level.
