Why Evolution Bike Park dries this way
Terrain & soilEvolution Bike Park (Crested Butte, CO) rides on sandy soil that drains fast over terrain that sheds water and dries quickly. Loam reads that exact ground against live weather, rather than leaning on a regional forecast that can’t tell you what the dirt is doing. The terrain here is rolling (a 10.3° average grade at 9,922 ft) and drains steadily rather than pooling, while the WNW-facing aspect gets its strongest sun in the afternoon, so morning laps can stay tacky after overnight moisture. Westside, Meander and Columbine are among the named trails our map data covers here.
