Trying to plan a trip, should I consider Sugar over WR? I have never been to sugar, how does it compare to WR?
The only way there is more than 1 run is to shuttle back up and do another, except for a 30 second alt line to throw in. Sugar has the best single trail but Windrock is by far a better destination....followed by a loaded tater from Captain TomsThere is more than 1 run
x2 taters for you buddy. That was insane....followed by a loaded tater from Captain Toms

Krystals is how I talk my wife into shuttling us all day I'm just talking a day trip and wanted to know how Sugar compared.What kind of trip are you talking about? You've been to WR 100 times.
If you're talking a trip for your family, there's definitely an arseload more for your wife and daughter to do in Boone/Blowing Rock (shopping, spa, tourist stuff, etc) opposed to eating Krystal and watching 4x4s in windrock. In the meantime you can slip in some dh runs at sugar, maybe find some other not-so-public runs if you're there for a couple days or more. With it being new to you, you'd enjoy the same run 5-10 times a day. And enjoy the high country at night.
If you're talking about a day-trip to ride, I'd say it's still worth checking out once. They've put in some work this year cleaning it up, much nicer than its been in a while, and really fun.
That pretty much sums it up for me, Thanks Josh.The only way there is more than 1 run is to shuttle back up and do another, except for a 30 second alt line to throw in. Sugar has the best single trail but Windrock is by far a better destination....followed by a loaded tater from Captain Toms

I may have to do that Brad, I guess you have a season pass?A slow ass lift is better than no lift. If you are just riding solo for a day come check it out.

After riding Snowshoe in the rain last week Sugar will be nothing. I'll let you know if I can make it.I'll be there all day, no mowing this week. Definitely check the weather Josh. We won't run the lift in thunderstorms. As of now the forecast is : 70% chance of thunderstorms, doesn't look good for Sunday. Hopefully the forecast will change.
Did Sugar get a lot of rain yesterday?Any body down to do some shuttlin at Sugar today? I won't be there till around 1-2 and don't want to buy a ticket for 3-4 runs. Hit me up

I like the sounds of that! Still down a bike at the moment though.Hey Brett. If you want to come over this way, the WBD is open. 6-8 runs per hour. 1 day pass-free. Bike rental- free.
