Huntley Gravity Zone Map

The Huntley Gravity Zone offers a fantastic selection of top-notch jump lines built by the world-renowned Gravity Logic trail crew out of Whistler. Despite these world-renowned builders having constructed some of the biggest expert-only jumps in the world, Huntley Gravity Zone offers jump lines for most levels, ranging from beginner to advanced. That said, you won't find any true expert-only trails in this network.

Description

Rendezvous provides a great warm-up run, especially if you quickly follow it with the intermediate flow line on Tango Whiskey. Once you sink your tires into Tango Whiskey, you'll begin to appreciate the massive berms and huge features crafted by Gravity Logic!

The next most difficult trail is Shock and Awe, located across the road from the main hub/trailhead.

Finally, once you've built up your confidence, Air Raid is the true creme de la creme of the jump lines in this zone. Featuring big tabletops, step-ups, and more, Air Raid begins with a mandatory drop as a filter feature. If you can't clear this drop in your sleep, don't even think about trying the bigger features further down the trail!

Huntley Gravity Zone can be accessed either by driving to the trailhead, as noted here, or by pedaling to the zone from anywhere in the Little Sugar trail system. The Uphill Both Ways trail runs through the gravity zone and connects to the long-distance Tunnel Vision Loop and the Lago Vista East trail, which bisects the trail system.
