The second annual Idaho-Down Jam State Festival is shaping up to be Idaho’s largest sustainable outdoor music festival located at the beautiful Brundage Mountain Resort in McCall, Idaho.

The festival will be a sustainable and interactive experience with continuous live music on two stages centered in a large natural amphitheater, curious vendors, interactive experiences, LED light show, late night shows, and camping on site including a kid’s camp.

The infrastructure for the event will be sustainable and lessen the social, ecological, and economic impacts on our community.

Wild Rockies Racing presents
the 19th Annual Brundage Mountain Bike Festival!

BREAKING NEWS: Live music Saturday night at 6:30 pm from Voice of Reason!!!!

Saturday’s race is a 8-mile loop. We are doing a new course this year- to mix things up! A long climb all the way to the middle of Hidden valley to start it out. Then hang a right, bombing down part of the Elk trail. Part of the upper loop is all downhill on the spectacular Elk Trail. Then you end up doing part of the old course in reverse as you pass by the lodge,– Growler to Bear trail clock-wise. The beginners and trailblazers will do short courses, obviously, due to the nature of vertical gain at Brundage Mtn.Resort.

This race also hosts the Idaho State Single-Speed Championship!! YOU MUST HAVE AN ANNUAL LICENSE TO BE IDAHO STATE CHAMPION!

After the XC, we are going to do Lorien’s favorite event, the Bomberman Super D!!! THIS IS A CHAMPIONSHIP EVENT.YOU MUST HAVE AN ANNUAL LICENSE TO contest the STATE CHAMPION, one day license holders can still win the race — but the title will go to annual license racers!

Full details and on-line registration is available here.

More Wild Rockies info can be found here.
