So WHAT do you think of Timberline?

Here's a visual on trails at Timberline Resort, WV.
Small local scene, low crowd, very natural environment, friendly and very laid-back resort.

OVERVIEW
Apparently, they are open Sat & Sun – as well as all major Holidays.

NEWS
There will be two new trails mapped out by Tuesday June 30th, but you may want to come out and enjoy them before we place them online.

TRAIL MAPS
Here’s one of the most challenging trail – with markers & photos to preview. This one is called Yellow Mellow.

There is nothing “mellow” about Yellow Mellow.

I raced the double down last year. although the weather was complete sheeet, i had a blast. fun courses and VERY rider oriented management....unlike some other wv resorts cough. i highly recommend checking this place out; i would happily drive 7.5 hrs again if another race is held.

oh yeah, there was a free keg of good stout at the finish line

Looks like fun...I think I'm gonna try to make a stop here in July. Spending a week or so camping/riding/going to a music festival in WV so I'll try to check it out!

Several people showed up at Timberline (from other parts of WV and surrounding). Nice to see several new faces. We have a few photos posted (of all the fun) on www.visitcanaan.com - just look for Photo Coverage on the right.
On other news, I checked out a new trail called Cherries today (Eastern Territory of Timberline) - in one word: Steep-and-Fun

A few friends of mine went up there on sunday. I heard they had a great tme and really enjoyed the place.

Thats 3 of them in the first pic in the photo of the day

so the lift isnt running during weekdays? i just wanted to confirm.

no weekday lift service, but lots of fun fast technical trails.It's only the second season for gravity but there has been XC race trails being built for the last 15 or 20 yrs...Just don't be surprised about being treated like a long lost brother there.

I am psyched!
Just received my new lens - perfect for tight & technical single tracks at TLine.
See you there on Sunday for plenty of photos.
