Anybody have any idea what trails will be open this weekend at Whistler? Last year on opening day it was mostly just A-Line. We couldn't even ride Dirt Merchant.
Open trails at Whistler
- Thread starter Talkingmonkey
- Start date
I did, actually, and couldn't find any information regarding bike trails that are expected to be open, which is why i posted my question here.
I thought people here might have some inside info.
Thanks for the link though.

Last year they only had limited trails open cause of weather. If it starts raining this weekend up there, everything will be shut down except for B-line.
Trail closures are really on a day to day basis. That mountain dries out so fast that closed trails can be bone dry in 2 hours.
I've only once seen it rain long enough to warrant closing a-line. Last years opening day was one of the better weekends all spring.
You know what they say, "If you don't like the weather in the NW, wait 15min."

Whistler's great but not worth the 5 hour drive if only a few trails are open and mega riders. Guess that's the feeling when you've been going up there for 3 years! Never thought I'd hear myself saying that.
Build has it right. You really can'r predict trails closures. it has beenhot and sunny so everything from fits 'might' be open. If it spits, they leave it, if it rains they close stunted trails, if it pours for a fairly long period they close the river called a-line, if it is worse than that the lifts would close anyway.
that would suck to have opening weekend get shut down
Well, isn't that handy.
They have updated the park page.
I swear, this wasn't up when I posted this question.

Are you retarded? You're thinking of the wrong weekend. Opening day was awesome. Part of the video you shot was on opening day. Retarded retard.
Yeah, last year opening weekend was one of the nicest days up there.
but crowded
every thing but crab apple hits and lower whistler DH.
They redoing crabapple hits? Wonder why it was closed.
I don't think anyone would have wanted to ride lower whistler DH Sat even if it was open....a bear set up camp all day pretty darn close to the trailhead! It was open Sunday, fun as always, but a bit beat up right now.bigshred said:
