Snow Bike Protocol

1. Trail access is dependent on conditions. Please check the daily grooming report after 9:00 AM for detailed trail access information.
2. All riders need to check in at the Ski and Ride Center and receive a bike trail pass that confirms they have read and understand the protocol.
3. All riders must have a daily trail pass OR a Nordic Season Pass.
4. Purpose built snow bikes only! Both tires must be wider than 3.7” and tire pressure must be less than 10 psi, no exceptions!
5. Bikes yield to all other users. Stay to the right side of the trail at all times, stay out of the classic ski track and give skaters a wide berth.
6. Please stay off trail when there is more than 3” of new snow.
7. If you are leaving a rut deeper than an inch, having a hard time riding in a straight line, or pushing your bike, the snow is too soft and you absolutely should not be biking on the trail.
8. The success of this program relies on you being an ambassador for the sport – be polite, educate other bikers, discourage bad behavior, follow the rules, and have a great time.
