083 – Sunrise Park Resort is AZ’s only lift-assisted bike park and it’s getting rad. (Colby Landin, Trail & Track Builder)
Manage episode 439095200 series 3396642
In this episode you’ll learn about two things…
#1. Sunrise Park Resort (which is outside of Greer, AZ.)
#2. Colby Landin (seasoned trail & track builder)
We kept hearing that Sunrise Park Resort was making great progress in improving their bike park. Then we ran across Colby’s Instagram Page and saw what he was doing up there. We reached out to Colby and last weekend drove up and spent a couple days riding the park and recording this episode with Colby.
First and foremost, shoutout to the White Mountain Apache Tribe, who owns and operates the Sunrise Park Resort. We love to recreate on your mountains in the winter and summer and we appreciate you sharing them with us and working to make the trails even better.
Secondly, we couldn’t talk about Sunrise without shouting out the Tonto Gravity Riders. They’ve been advocating for and working on trails throughout the state (including Sunrise and with a focus on the Pinal Mountains) since 2010.
Sunrise Park Resort Summer Activities
- Bike Park: 31 trails (8 x green, 4 x blue, 10 x black, 8 x double black). 2 lifts.
- Alpine Coaster (3000’ of track, up to 25mph)
- High Flier Zipline (tandem lines, 2100’ of elevation, up to 50 mph)
- Tubing Hill (magic carpet ride up, 300’ hill)
- Airbag Jump (18’ & 32’)
- Rock Climbing Wall (42’)
- 3d Archery Course (15 target course)
- Disc Golf (lift accessed).
eMTBs are allowed at Sunrise Park Resort.
Note: Other than letting us record this episode at the resort, we have received no compensation or perks from Sunrise. We bought our tickets full price.
