Would it be a bad idea to try Top Mad Hatter on a gravel bike? I saw one of your other videos descending sidewinder on a gravel bike. Wondering your opinion?
Should be doable assuming you've got good brakes and some larger tires that can take up some of the square hits. Also at the bottom it gets quite rooty so if you can exit back onto the gravel path once the flow is done I'd advise it rather than rattling your teeth out. Let me know how it goes!
Thanks! After I'm done with still several Squamish trails I'll be heading back to the North Shore to finish up Seymour and start on Fromme. May have some Whistler non-bike park trails scattered in the middle.
@@TrailPOV Thats great! You should upload your videos to our Campfire platform for a chance to win gear and be featured on Outside TV! Check out this month's Mountain Biking contest here: www.outsidetvcampfire.com/contest/about/july19campfirecontest
I did this climb last year! So much work, beautiful views..
Absolutely. Also feels like you're in the middle of nowhere

Awesome video! Where are you riding next?

How does trail looks like in April? Planning bike trip and I can't find anywhere how trails usually looks like in April
I usually start commuting work by bike in April so trails should be fine
Usually snow at that elevation in April, try lower trails
How big of a climb would this be from Alice Lake?
A very long climb....one of the longest imo
