Spectators are welcome and encouraged to watch as PRO/CAT I contestants race from the peak of Skibowl at 5,100 feet, down the Cannonball run, reaching speeds up to 50 mph, then through the technical Woods trail, finishing at the Skibowl West base area. If you have never seen a downhill mountain bike race, this is an awsome opportunity to see some brave people race down a mountain on two wheels! Non racers can enjoy the over 20 attractions at the Adventure Park during their weekend stay.

The Mt. Hood Adventure Park at Skibowl was one of the first areas in the nation to provide lift assisted mountain biking. That tradition continues today, 28 years later, with miles of trails accessed by two chairlifts. Bike and helmet rentals are available on site.
