SMD - Rossland, BC

#mtb #mountainbiking #kootenays
SMD is a great trail located in the Malde Creek riding area of Rossland, BC. SMD stands for Supermegadeth and is an all-mountain rip with many fun features. Great trail for the intermediate to advanced rider willing to pedal a bit. Take Awesome for fast flow at the bottom, or ride the end of Death for steeper lines and a few drops. It can be accessed by shuttling up Malde Creek FSR or by pedaling up Tamarack. It is best to shuttle drop a vehicle at the bottom as it is a long ride back to Rossland, but can be done by climbing up Doukhober Draw.

I love being able to bypass Death.

It is always a nice option to have! You'll have to come try it out for yourself!

@@TrueRouteResearch I may have to do that. I suddenly have a lot more time on my hands.

Uh oh... That doesn't sound good!
