    That looked amazing and propper death in places 😵 defo a contender for next years big trip 😉 love how you take time to show each big feature 👍

      Cheers Robert, Yeah it's exactly that. It's defo worth a look but i wouldn't spend the whole trip here, maybe more of a stopping point for a day or so. Couple that up with the cairngorms and tweed valley and you've got something special brewing!

      Yeah it's really nice, There's a few trails down on the lower sections that didn't make the video.

    Great video as always. The GoPro does a great job of smoothing out and flattening those trails as those tracks are intense. I maintain that the Top Chief is more difficult than the WC though.

      Thanks Ali, yeah the Go Pro effect is REAL! and same with the Red Bull coverage tbh.....track looks pretty chill on TV too.
      Noooooo, don't be silly ...... WC Track is on another level!

    You've done well to get the difficulty across. The thing I always find funny is that Top Chief used to be a red-graded trail 🤣 - there is nothing about that trail that could be considered red 🙈

    • @MtbTrailHub
      @MtbTrailHub  3 года назад +2

      Thanks for that! Hahaa, i bet that caught a few people of guard. It's good that there is now the option of the Blue Doon. I saw lots of people really out of their depth on top chief because it was the only way down.

      @@streetpigeonmtb you would think so. Was there a few weeks back and the kiosk was telling us that there have been more incidents on Blue Doon than all of last year and previous seasons. It’s is a cracking Blue run though..

      It was only while i was talking it through that it dawned on me about that..... Glen coe just down the road also has a lift but its got nothing on this place! Yeah they are awesome trails.......I heard there is financial support in place to build more trail from the top. Happy days!
