Be SafeMountain biking is a voluntary recreational activity. There are risks involved in participating in mountain biking including uneven/rough terrain, loss of control/balance, collisions with objects, terrain features, trees, rocks, and other riders. Each rider should determine whether he or she is sufficiently skilled and fit to safely participate in this activity. Please use mountain bike trails at your own risk. Trails are not patrolled regularly. Helmet use is strongly recommended. Wintergreen rec-ommends that you do not ride alone. If you are uncomfortable with any section of the trail, please disembark from your bike and walk the portion of the trail with which you are uncomfortable.
