UPDATE: The Developers filed their application for the Shadow Mountain Bike Park on January 24th. You can read their application here on the County's website. We will be reviewing the application and putting a summary of the application up soon.
The next step will be for the County to accept the application as complete which could take some time yet and then the timeline towards a hearing with the Jefferson County Planning Commission will begin. You can learn more about the County's process here.
We will be in touch with everyone regarding next steps shortly - it is time to make sure the County and Planning Commission know why they need to STOP THE BIKE PARK!

"Is it Worth It?"

What Is Shadow Mountain Bike Park,
Formerly Known as Full Send Bike Ranch?
Full Send Bike Ranch has changed their name to Shadow Mountain Bike Park. We do not support their use of our community's name when so many neighbors oppose the bike park, so we will now be known as "Stop the Bike Park."
The Bike Park, if approved by the Jefferson County Planning Commission, Jefferson County Commissioners and the State Land Board, will be a 250-acre lift access downhill mountain bike park just West of Conifer on Shadow Mountain Drive and South Warhawk Road, see the map below.
They are expecting hundreds of downhill and freestyle mountain bikers daily with the developers estimating at the Community Meeting that there would be more than 1,000 bikers on peak days in 500 cars that would be driving to and from the Bike Park (1,000 vehicle trips) on Shadow Mountain Drive.

COSECC COMMUNITY SAFETY MEETING
A virtual community safety meeting was hosted by the Conifer and South Evergreen Community Committee on October 17, 2022, addressing safety concerns on Shadow Mountain Drive and more specifically to discuss current and potential safety issues associated with the proposed development of a lift-access freeride downhill mountain bike park. Captain Lawrence Oletski of the Colorado State Patrol spoke emphatically about Shadow Mountain Drive’s history of traffic safety issues and auto accidents and made this powerful statement:
“It would be easy to say every three years there is one fatality,” Oletski said. “Folks, that’s just not OK. We don’t want any fatalities on this road.”
