Test you skills at the 2025 Mt Dufour (mostly) Downhill mountain bike race course. Come enjoy some rocks, roots, and epic turns.

The course starts at the top of Mt Dufour at the Fire Tower Lookout. It will start down the trail on the right side of the parking lot called Tall Paul which is fast and flowy with some rock thrown in the mix. Once you come to the short black diamond section called Pauls Pass use caution. Walking this section before riding it for the first time is recommended and can be done during the race if needed. It will take you down to a sharp left onto a wooden bridge. Follow Taller Paul for about another 100 meters. From here, make a left onto Turbos Terrain, which starts with a steep section that was once an old ski lift path, to a sharp left turn, followed by a few tougher sections. Once through that section, its a fast, rocky ride which makes a quick right and down a quick, steep section with flowy turns around some trees to the bottom. Which brings us to RocknRoll, make a right here, follow it down across a couple wide wooden bridges which will bring you to the home stretch straight down the bunny hill as fast as you possibly can go to get to the finish line.
