Bikes off the skids
Under three minutes of the lift in and the ride down — what the helicopter access buys you, and what the ground is like once it has gone.

Photographs

A helicopter stands on brown ground by a high lake below snow peaks, a bike unloaded beside it and people waiting. — The lift in — bikes off the skids.

A rider picks a line down rocky, snow-dusted ground below white peaks. — Snow-dusted rock, and a line through it.

A helicopter comes in low over rocky, snow-dusted ground where bikes wait, a rider standing by. — Bikes on the rocks as the helicopter comes in.

Two riders with their bikes beside a helicopter on brown ground by a high lake, snow peaks behind. — Where the road ends and this trip begins.

A rider stands with a bike on a rock slab, snow peaks and a wide valley behind, under a deep blue sky. — Thin air, and a long view down the valley.

A group of riders raises their arms beside their bikes on snowy, rocky high ground. — The whole group, high up, before the drop.

A rider passes stone walls on a high trail under prayer flags, a sharp snow peak behind. — The trails share their ridgelines with older travellers.

Riders pause on a ridge floating above a sea of clouds. — Riding above the cloud line.

Mangal Lama, in a blue down jacket, points out a line across the range to a rider beside him. — Mangal points out the line to a rider.

A rider carves forest singletrack between moss-covered trees. — The lower mountain — moss, roots and flow.
