 Trail is a hiking trail in great shape. If you are doing a short loop with kids, I'd go up farside and down this one.

 A few small snow patches above the bridge, but rideable, completely clear and dry from the bridge down.

 The first video associated with this trail is of the 'Riverside jumps" dirt jump lines in the Whistler Village (next to Car Park 2) and not actually anywhere near the trail named "Riverside". Can some PB-TF admin move the video please.
