My brother and I had plans to go, but karma shined on me and now I get to go pick up my new Syncro during that week. I went a few years ago. Had a great time.

I raced my mountain bike down Whistler when I was in my 20's, know I'm too old for that now. My youngest son can't do hills yet and my oldest just road his bike into a tree after loosing control on too steep a hill, so going with he's out too! LOL
Have fun!

I'll be there! Probably not taking the Westy - rented a yurt at The Riverside. See you there! - Specialized Enduro, black & red.

If you can't make it to Crankworx or are driving through the South Puget Spind area September 10th and 11th go to the Capitol Forest Classic near Olympia.
There's free camping at the event and vw campers are always well represented.

Nice! I am not sure where my site is, until I get there. But when I went last oct. for the final weekend of bike park, I was right below the yurts. I am counting down the days. Arriving late sat. night 10th.
The Capital Forest classic seems fun, too bad it's the same date I am away

It's hard to say, as I've never tried that. I remember reading that you can overnight in the free parking lots in the village. But not 100% on that, do some research on that. Or you can check riverside resort and see if any cancellations. There is a walmart in squamish, you can def. sleep there
