Waterbury & Stowe Mountain Bike Trail Conditions
The Waterbury and Stowe corridor holds Vermont's densest riding — Perry Hill's technical descents, Cady Hill's flow, and the Trapp Family network up the valley. Green Mountain loam over ledge: it rides tacky and grippy for days after rain but the roots and rock slabs stay slick, and mud season closes trails outright each spring.
