Race Course


 

We're excited to announce Whistler's BC Cup DH will take place on the following course:

 

  • Starting at the Schleyer/Upper Joyride entrance.
  • Turning off onto Upper Joyride underneath the Gondola
  • Before merging on the new revitalized Upper Canadian Open Top Section (trail construction in progress)
  • After hitting Old Olly Road, Racers will then head down Lower Whistler Downhill
  • Before taking the lower Detroit Rock City entrance
  • Take Detroit Rock City all the way into the finish which will be at the top of the Boneyard.

 

Important notes to remember:

 

  • Please respect all trail closures. Any riding of closed trails will result in loss of pass privileges.
  • Heads up - there's plenty of Crankworx construction happening in the Boneyard, we will not be using the road gap line that’s currently under construction near the finish area.  
  • Final course will be presented at official track walk next Friday.
