Any recommended trails? I know there are tons, but a bit overwhelmed for choice. Prefer flowing single track to big drops and scary northshore.
(And anything that you can avoid mashing your face on, HK Stu)

The only one I have heard of is the legendary 'Powerhouse Plunge' which is a steep descent. Years ago I tried to ride down it and shat my pants and ended up escorting the bike down on foot.

One to add to the "avoid" list then.

Chris - best to avoid the stuff on the north shore then, though there really are some fantastic trails there.
If you're in Squamish, buy a map from the bike shop next to Valhalla, and you'll be able to pick your trails from that - though Sq has some downhill style stuff, it's best for the flowy singletrack stuff.

We never did any in the end - on the rainy days we were too knackered and when it rained it rained proper - not occasional showers, full on constant downpours. Stuff around there looked good though.
