Mountain Biking Clinics, Adventures, Rentals, Camps & Trails
Fun on two wheels
Crosscut’s mountain biking program supports trail access, training opportunities, and community connection for dedicated and aspiring riders of all ages and abilities. Once the trails are dried out (usually by late June) all are welcome to come ride the trails at Crosscut!
While our trails are free and open to the public, we ask visitors to support our nonprofit organization with a voluntary trail pass and help us cover the summer operating expenses.

Mountain Biking Clinics
We offer clinics for all skill levels for ages 15 and up — from true first-timers to advanced riders, we have you covered. Our instructors create a welcoming environment to learn new skills and expand existing ones.
Youth Mountain Biking Summer Camps
Our mountain bike camps for kids entering 4th-9th grades build independence and confidence in biking. Our seasoned instructors know how to motivate and encourage kids to build mountain biking skills and navigate trails safely. Learning together in a positive, team environment, our half-day bike camps serve kids of all abilities, identities, and backgrounds. All our bike camps are half-day, week-long programs.
Private Lessons
We offer individualized instruction to ages 10 and up. One-hour lessons are geared toward beginner and emerging riders, and 2-hour lessons are for intermediate-to-advanced-level riders. Private lessons are available weekdays and weekends and can accommodate up to two.
Mountain Bike Rentals
Our mountain bike rentals include the bike – a Rocky Mountain Element A50 equipped with flat pedals – and a helmet. If you wish to use your own pedals, please bring them.
Private Mountain Bike Adventure
Let us take you on a private adventure exploring the beautiful Bridger Mountains on our extensive trail network. Adventures are designed for up to four guests, and will last three hours with a riding distance of 3 to 20 miles. Your guide will select the terrain and trails based on your skill set and your adventure goals. This adventure is for everyone including families with kids over 15 years old, groups of friends, beginner to advanced riders and everyone in between. Looking to celebrate a special occasion? Reach out to us to discuss customizing your experience.
Please get in touch if you have a special situation such as an advanced rider who doesn’t fall in our age requirements or you are looking for a family private lesson. We want to help you meet your mountain biking goals!
