Better off in Auburn till they open it up all the way.
well lets see i think today was the worst its ever been for me in auburn sooooooo much mud but hell when the wife gives the hall pass i need to ride... anyone hit the star today was it raining there to?
mud? At Auburn? Sweeeet. It could've been a lot worse....like 105degrees and hardpack with dust on top like all summer long. Enjoy the last bit of mud. It's good for building if anything!
What the F is up with this weather! Damn Golbal Warming!!!!!
to hell with auburn.......
you will never hear me complain about a lift chair that leaves from a village that serves rum and cokes, regardless of the weather or trail conditions.
friday may have been a wet, cold, snowy, muddy mess, but it was awsome.
down with the yuppie!!!!!

You drunk ass!!!!!! I'm not gonna lie, I'll probably go up next Sunday. Even though the SOCOM was overkill on the lower mountain, it was nice to be up at Northstar. I'm glad I rolled out early opening day. I stopped in and bought a new DJ fork!! Argyle 409 beeeeeeeatch!!!!!!!
So f-you Roundeye but knowing you they're slanted because you're buzzed up. I'm going to sleep so I can go log some miles riding around in Auburn.
We're gonna be heading up this saturday the 31st! anyone else?
Are the upper lifts running? If not definitely not worth it.
Whats up guys well i am heading up there friday with Dean and if its good i will ride on Saturday what the hell i got a season pass.
MArc, meet freeridr4life and myself up on saturday. we have season passes so its not a big waste besides gas i guess.
i will be there all weekend
So what are some good riding spots in Auburn?
I am planning on doing a little dirtbiking at forest hill this weekend and was intending to hit up N* afterwards, but sounds like auburn may be a better choice for this weekend?

Thanks for the feedback. I am trying try to look up the Ravine area.
Any insight as to a trail map I can look at or suggestions on what to ride over there?

You better be working on your best Stevie Nicks impression this season!Don't wear yourself out.

I will make it up there soon. Hopefully in the next 2 months. My big bike building/road trip funds are going towards me moving next month / emergency ($$$) plane tickets for family stuff this weekend.
It would be nice to meet you guys up there.

Brett's in pretty good shape now. He's been pumping the neighbor's cat alot....
Well it was a long shot, but I was hoping people wouldn't be douches and just help a brother out with some trail locations.L-I-A-R
I am not trying to exploit your trails, I had heard some good things about auburn downhill trails back in the day and now that I am finally riding again I wanted to check them out.
Either way I will be riding auburn sunday, so if anyone wants to roll hit me up.
Uhhhhh, relax.
Pay me $50 and I'll tell you everything.
I just talked to someone at N*. Zephyr and Vista lift is closed for a couple more weeks.
Hey Ron, how you been?I just talked to someone at N*. Zephyr and Vista lift is closed for a couple more weeks.

OFFICIAL WORD!!!
UPPER MOUNTAIN OPENS June 7th!
After a long week of trail work, it’s official. Northstar will open the Tahoe Zephyr Express on June 7th. The Zephyr provides access to some of Northstars best trails, including Live Wire, Gypsy and Boondocks.
The trail crew has been hard at work completely revamping Boondocks. This trail has long been a local’s favorite and it just got better. More flow, jumps and features have been added in the lower section of the trail. A few of the boys rode it this afternoon and came down with huge smiles.
Live Wire has been high on the priority list as well. The crew spent all week working on the re-installation of the worlds first and only full length trail irrigation system. For those of you who don't know, that is a sprinkler every 20 feet for over 2 miles! Live Wire also saw a lot of work this week, the last section of berms was rerouted from 5 burms to 3 burms with a big step down in between berms 1 and 2. Improvements to Live Wire also include a reshaping of the "fish bowl" and a left hand hip into a right hand hip in the section of trail that immediately follows. The final section of Live Wire will also be completed and will finish right at the bottom of the Zephyr!
Gypsy also got a fresh make over. The top section before the tunnel was improved with a number of unique features and jumps. The rest of the trail is high on the priority list for early this week.
Finally, the opening of Zephyr means that the lower half of the Vista trails will be open as well. Lower Kariel, Lower Sticks and Stones, Pho Dogg, Lower Dog Bone, Speed Control and K-12 will all be open and ready to rip.
Don’t forget that the Tahoe Zephyr has twice as many bike racks this year. That means more laps on Live Wire. See you Saturday!
Make sure to check out the videos of the new trail features posted on this site.
