Anyone ever skated Mountain Shadows rd.? up by redding and igo, in the neighborhood called ranchland Acres? ring any bells? some people call it middletown. anyone?
I just drove that road today. Unfortunately, I drove about a zillion other roads as well, and I really don't remember that one especially well. It's definitely got some elevation drop, and I think the pavement was fair. I just can't remember how steep it was. There were quite a few cars, but it was just after 5m, so I dunno what it's like in the middle of the day. I do remember that there were some other hills very nearby that looked seriously gnarly. Scary-steep stuff.
i just know of too many good DH courses in my area and was looking to expand my knowledge.
btw, mountain shadows has a slope of 1/22, so about the same as maryhill (1/23). asfault is good except lots of gravel-type rocks on the sides of the road, no hairpins but lots of easy turns. i live on that hill so thats where i get all my skills. the steepest hill in that area is called ledgewood. it has a slope of 1/8 and lots of hairpins that can send u over a cliff.... so pretty much suicide.
