Haskell Canyon Bike Park

Haskell Canyon Bike Park

The proposed Project would develop a bike park that would consist of approximately 15 miles of trails interspersed throughout the Project Site and two activity/programming areas – the Haskell Bike Park Core (Haskell Core) and the Blue Cloud Trailhead. Trail types for all skill levels provided within the Blue Cloud Bike Park include approximately 3.7 miles of perimeter and climbing trails (beginner and intermediate), approximately 5.5 miles of downhill bike trails (beginner, intermediate, expert, and pro), and approximately 5 miles of multi-use trails (beginner, intermediate, and expert). The proposed trail widths would range 4 to 6 feet wide. The Project would also maintain approximately 1.6 miles of existing multi-use trails. The Haskell Core would be located on the western portion of the Project Site. An existing access road into the Haskell Core would lead to a proposed parking lot with approximately 40 spaces, a parking/ emergency turnaround, four American Disabilities Act (ADA) parking spaces, and unstructured space for four food trucks. The Haskell Core would include an event plaza with picnic tables; beginner, intermediate, and advanced pump tracks; a dual slalom course; progressive jumplines; and a progressive skills area. Event/spectator areas would be provided adjacent to the main activity areas. Other amenities within the Haskell Core would include shade structures at the start zones of the dual slalom course and the progressive jumplines, two vault restrooms, a bike repair station, a rest area with benches and shade structure, and cargo containers for storage areas. Several trailheads leading to perimeter, climbing, and multi-use trails would also be located in the Haskell Core. Additionally, two infiltration basins would be constructed within the Haskell Core. The Blue Cloud Trailhead would be located near the central portion of the Project Site and accessible from Blue Cloud Road. The Blue Cloud Trailhead would include an unstructured parking area. The Blue Cloud Trailhead area would also include space for potential future landscape restoration and a multi-use trailhead. Visitor amenities that would be provided at the Blue Cloud Trailhead include a single vault restroom, a bike repair station, and the Saddle Trail Hub, which is a meeting space for riders with a shade structure. No utility connections for water, wastewater, or lighting are proposed.
