- New trail day for us mountain bikers! I would like to share a trail preview of the newly updated Daniel’s Pass in North Cheyenne Canon Park in Colorado Springs. This area is located 1.5hr south of Denver. This is trail is located off Gold Camp Road. This is the entire trail footage of my first run down Daniel’s Pass. I would rate this trail a Blue (Intermediate level). I missed a few fun and better lines during the first ride down, however, I just wanted see the entire trail first. My thoughts: I like it! The trail has some great flow. It has features that can challenge you. Overall it was fun and I would do it again!
Thank you trail builders for making it happen: Friends of Cheyenne Canon.

Hmmmmm dunno how to feel but what I can say is this should get people into mountain biking and hopefully help with congestion in the canyon. Great shots and looks like a few doubles and drops which is cool to see... Hahah although I miss the old gnar I know we got plenty more trails and its only a matter of time before they start making tougher trails again. Glad u enjoyed and im sure others are stoked too
I agree with your comment. This trail is great for all the different skill levels within our mtb community. I wished at least they kept the tree drop.
@@DavePFilms right ! Was a cool entry level drop. Anyways praying for more trails in the meantime and blessed to live on the front range!
@@dsancho08 I’m sure more to come. We have great trail building teams in Colorado that do great work.
Just saw this video. Nice job documenting the new changes! I rode Daniel’s waayyyy back in the 80’s and it seemed so steep and gnarly. Especially with a hardtail and cantilever brakes, lol. I’m looking forward to riding all of these newly built trails that are obviously much easier to ride but look really fun. It cracks me up when all of these people comment how lame the new trails are but zero percent of them have actually picked up a pick and a shovel and built their own gnarly stuff. Bunch of entitled, lazy folks IMO. Like any renegade trail builder, I could care less about trying to prove how cool I am on the internet by criticizing those hard working trail builders because they don’t build gnarly trails just for me, haha!
Keep up the good work, Dave!
I hiked up there a week ago, now I gotta go back and ride it, nice.
Also checkout the other trails like Bruin and Sweetwater that interconnect to Daniel’s Pass. You can make a nice loop around those trails.
What a beautiful flowy trail that is, nice work Dave.
Cool video Dave
This trail looks great to ride. Nice and fast riding. Great shots, I like the area and the scenery.
Thanks for the content and for sharing mate. Ride on and have fun
The trail builders did a great job providing a trail to all types of riders. Thanks for your support.
I watched a vid on this trail last Sunday and had the strongest feeling that you were out riding it. Wonderful job covering the trail. The sound of scree under your tire is music ! Lov'd it Man !! Ride On !!!
🤣 you know me! I love the North Cheyenne Canon trails and been waiting for months for this trail to open. Glad you loved the sound of the trail…I enjoyed hearing it too that’s why I left it without the music. Too bad you hear me breathing so hard towards the end. Thank you for watching!
I'm moving to Colorado Springs in the near future and I can't wait to shred this trail!! Great vid!
That’s awesome! You’ll love all the trails in COS. One of my favorite trail systems is North Cheyenne Canon and it has plenty to offer for us MTBers. Thank you!
Awesome I moved here from Cincinnati in 2013 and love it. Rode up Pikes Peak twice on Barr trail.
Quality vid buddy 🤘🔥
I appreciate that comment! 🙏
Nice riding man! Got to go back and try the rock feature to the left at 7:10
For sure! I’m glad you saw that too. That caught my attention during edits. There were more lines that we missed but it was our first time through. Good riding bro.
Nice vidéo Good job bro 😍😍
Thank you brother! I appreciate your support 🙏
@@DavePFilms avec plaisir
Nice man! Definitely doesn’t look as hard as the og one but tons of fun!
Yea it’s a lot of easier now. I do miss the tree drop 😔 in the beginning. I wish they kept it and just made a b line. But it’s so much fun. You’ll enjoy it!
@@DavePFilms yeah it hasn’t seemed to get a good rep immediately
@@doubletrackdodger2512 yea this trail was re-done for the entire mtb community to enjoy. Definitely a blue now.
@@DavePFilms yeah! Definitely wanna try it!
This is my city. I rode this for the first time a few weeks ago. Not really a downhill trail with weird turns. My buddy said it was faster than Captain Jacks, that was a lie lol.
What I really want is Jacks to ban hikers, don't mind the dirt bikes too much.
Have you ridden Heizer?
I haven’t tried out Heizer. I love Capt Jacks upper the most.
If you want a downhill only I recommend Floyd Hill. I will be posting that soon. No hikers allowed!
@@DavePFilms No reason to mountain bike in Denver lol.
"A little loose" haha. does actual dirt feel weird to COS riders? We have the same DG kitty litter up in Wyoming too, but nowhere near as deep as it gets in that canyon. I remember how sketchy Jacks was the first time I rode it, gravel surfing would describe it accurately.
What model Oakleys ar you wearing there? Are they Rx? Fun video! Thinking of starting at the bottom of the Canyon and hitting it…maybe Buckhorn, Jacks, Chutes coming down.
Oakley Holbrook with Trail prizm lenses. Not Rx. I highly recommend! Very easy to see the obstacles on the trail. I love taking upper jacks down then the rest of jacks then chutes. Let me know if you have any questions about the glasses.
Awesome ride there brother. Looks like Brad and you having a blast. I see some really nice bump jumps all over Daniels Pass. How you rate this compared to Captn Jacks ?
Also you using a 360 camera into the
Mix?
Yea we had a good time! Honestly, I’m not sure how I would rate it. They both have different features that makes it unique. Daniels has a lot more features to play around with. But Capt Jacks is more flowy. It depends what you feel like riding that day. We are going back to checkout the other lines and trails that connect to it. Yea I use a 360 a few times but my primary is the hero 8. I don’t like the fish eye very much on it.
Great video and ride. Doubletrack is dying to do this one. :) Is the old trail still around or did they completely re-do it? I used to hike up it a lot and this looked very different.
Thank you my friend! They completely changed the entire trail. You’ll see parts of old Daniels pass filled it especially the steep and loose sections. Also there are other trails that interconnect to Daniel’s that look fun to ride. It’s a fun trail and you won’t be disappointed. You and doubletrack would ride this trail well.
Well done guys! That trail looks an awful lot like Hard Money in Black Hawk, just better dirt and less rocks!! How long was that climb up to get to the top?
Thank you! 🙏 The climb to the top was about 2 miles…and it was pretty chill. Until you get to the bottom of the trail, then you need to climb out of the canyon 😣.
Nice mountain biking DH trail
I’m blessed to have a trail like this. Thank you!
Siick!
You need to ride it!
If you don't mine me asking what bike computer is this and why is it beeping every so often?
Sorry for the really late reply. It’s a Garmin Edge 830. It beeps every hour or when I jump. It records the distance of the jump. Sometimes you can make a reminder to drink and eat at certain intervals.
@@DavePFilms That's pretty neat - Thanks!
im looking for a ebike trail since im buying a very long range ebike that has a 52 volt 60 ah battery that cover 100-140 miles XD
I know captain jacks allows e-bikes!
Tribe Yeti.
Tame and lame, typical mw crap. Original was better.
I have to agree. I miss the original.
Can’t believe they ruined the best trail in town by turning it into this garbage, this “new” daniels pass sucks
I wished they kept some of the original sections of Daniels pass like the tree drop and the steep sections.
