Fear & Flowing

The park's blue flow trail top to bottom: berms and rollers, then a ladder of tight switchbacks along the Sherwood chair to the lodge.

Getting there

Park at Lee Canyon base area lot

6725 Lee Canyon Rd (end of NV-156), Las Vegas, NV 89124

  • Main resort lot just above the base lodge. The resort site lists no parking fee for summer, but confirm before you go. No cell service on the drive up, so save directions first.
  • Start and finish are the same spot. Follow the cue sheet and the arrows on the map.

Know before you go

  • Lift-served only: ride the Bluebird chair up and pedal nothing but the descent. A bike park lift ticket is required; buy it online at leecanyonlv.com, where prices vary by day (a 2026 Review-Journal report put the starting price at $15, and online tickets include a $10 resort credit).
  • 2026 schedule: open daily through Oct 18, then bonus weekends Fri to Mon, Oct 23 to 26 and Oct 30 to Nov 2. Lift hours run roughly 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays and later on weekends; check the resort schedule page the day you go.
  • This is the resort's blue flow trail, signed Fear & Flowing. Halfway down, the Gonzo jump line splits off and rejoins a little lower; take it if you want air, or stay on the main trail for berms and rollers. The route and timer follow the main trail.
  • Session the jump spur once at moderate speed before you start sending it; features change as the crew rebuilds them.
  • Every trail in the bike park is downhill only. Riding or hiking up the bike trails is not allowed, helmets and closed-toe shoes are required, and e-bikes are banned on the singletrack. A full-face helmet and pads are strongly recommended and come with a rental bike.
  • The lower third is a long run of tight switchbacks beside the Sherwood lift line. Brake before each turn, not in it.

Ride smart

  • Water: plan on about 0.5 L for this ride. There's none on the trail.
  • Signal is spotty. Tell someone your route and your time back.
  • Emergency: call 911 and say "Fear & Flowing ride, parked at Lee Canyon base area lot, Lee Canyon Bike Park", plus the coordinates from Locate me.
  • Wildlife: give horses, burros and anything with horns room, and never feed them.
  • Stay on trail. Desert crust and mountain soil take decades to heal.
