    It's some rugged and steep stuff out there so i don't think it will disappoint at all . I'm really happy about this since i'm not too far away. I may consider getting a DH rig instead of the mountain tandem

    Right on! Wasnt the guy's name who was heading this up "Ciaran" or something like that? Kudos to him for keeping the dream alive. Baldy isn't too far from Long Beach, I'm looking forward to checking it out!!!

    Yeah, I'm curious too. It seems to me that over by the lifts it would be some really steep stuff, not that it wouldn't be rideable, just that it would be somewhat of a plunge vs a xc ride. I know they are looking primarily at a dh type of course, but it would make more sense to make it more appealable to more riders. Even DH guys like a little xc (as long as it's pointed down) once in a while. I'm in for some shoveling.
