Trail of the Week: Red Tail at Copper

At over 5 miles long, Red Tail is Copper’s longest mountain bike trail, descending the full length of the American Eagle chairlift into Center Village. This technical, intermediate trail weaves its way down the mountain across familiar ski trails and into the forest, covering varying terrain.

A non-stop thrill ride, Red Tail offers a full-body endurance test that can be accessed from the top of American Eagle. – Olivia at Copper Mountain
