WHAT IS WOMEN’S CAMP?

Community. Clinics. Camaraderie.

Sky Tavern’s Women’s MTB Camp Weekend, June 20-21, is a packed schedule of activities built around bike skills for all levels of abilities, whether you’re figuring out the fundamentals or tackling advanced technical terrain. Combining a fun atmosphere at 8,000 feet above Reno, Women’s Camp is all-inclusive with epic trails, experienced instruction, shuttles, and a full course homemade dinner on Saturday followed by an après party with a live DJ.

Choose to extend the good times even further with camping under the stars Friday and Saturday nights at the base area (vehicle or primitive tent camping/no electrical hookups).

I’M IN! WHAT DO I NEED?

Here is what we consider mandatory - plus some recommendations. 

REGISTER NOW

    • Full suspension mountain bike

      • A fully functioning and well-maintained mountain bike is required. Please check over your bike before attending a bike clinic: tire pressure, brakes work, chain is cleaned and lubed, quick releases and bolts are tight. 

      • Bike Type: Sky Tavern has a diverse network of trails. Your bike choice may limit the terrain that you can ride. Hard tail mountain bikes (front suspension only) may limit you to our green trails. Full-suspension mountain bikes are STRONGLY recommended for our blue and black trails. No kick stands as they can loosen up and become a hazard.

      • Tires: Wide, knobby tires are required for our loose terrain. A spare tube that matches your tire size is required to carry while you ride. Tubeless riders, check that you have sealant in your tire. Fix-a-flat supplies are recommended.

      • Brakes: Front and rear disc brakes are required to attend our bike clinics (no coaster brakes or rim brakes). Hydraulic disc brakes are highly recommended.

    • Mountain bike clothing - comfortable shorts or pants, tee or jersey, chamois (optional), bike shoes or closed toe shoes with grippy bottoms (skate style are better than tennis shoe style)

    • Water bottles or hydration packs for on and off trail hydration

    • Reusable mug for morning beverages

  • The shuttle will operate all weekend, taking you from the parking lot to the top of the mountain for each lap, so we can conserve our energy for learning and sessioning.

    Our trails are gravity focused.

  • A modern mountain bike with disc brakes and front suspension is required. A full suspension mountain bike is ideal for Sky Tavern’s terrain. Riders with all-mountain/enduro full suspension mountain bikes will have a better experience on our blue, black, and double black trails.  Remember to check over your bike before the clinic: tires, brakes, gears, shocks, wheels and frame as it’s no fun dealing with mechanicals when learning new skills. Flat pedals are highly encouraged!

  • We don’t rent bikes but we recommend asking these local shops: 

  • Class 1 pedal assist eMTBs (no throttle) are permitted. Just be ready to load it and unload it on the shuttle by yourself!

  • Riders will be split into small groups based on their experience and abilities. Our professional coaches instruct a variety of skills: stability and balance, improved braking techniques, body position and range of motion, climbing techniques, cornering, wheel lifts, roll downs, tactics in technical terrain, and intro to drops and jumps. Our coaches will guide you to specific skills that will help you meet your goals! We will ride trails to put our skills into practice, sessioning features as you wish!

  • Based on how you answer the registration questions: experience, level of riding, goals, and motivations.  Coaches will assign participants a group with similar needs.


  • If camping in a vehicle, you are invited to camp in the parking lot near the lodge (there are no electrical hookups). This includes vehicle, RV, trailer camping. Tent camping is permitted in a designated area. Bathrooms are available but no showers.

  • Reno-based action sports photog Emily Tidwell will be capturing your progress in real time! Our goal is for every participant to get an action shot!

  • Gas cooking stoves are permitted in the parking lot. No other open flames are permitted.

  • Yes, we can store bikes in the lodge.

  • Properly fitted CPSC Certified helmets, eye protection, knee pads and gloves are required.  Any other body armor you feel comfortable riding in is optional. Body armor, elbow pads and full-face helmets are highly recommended if interested in our blue, black, and double black terrain.

  • All riders must carry their own water, snacks, and fix-a-flat supplies (correct spare tube size).  We recommend carrying a multi-tool, tire levers, and pump as well. If you’re not sure what size of tire/tube you have, check out this video.

    • A light breakfast will be provided Saturday and Sunday thanks to Coffeebar (coffee, tea, pastries, yogurts, fruits). Lunch (wraps or sandwiches, chips, and fruit) and dinner (build your own taco or bowl) will be provided Saturday.

    • Snacks will be available both days courtesty of Skratch Labs and Sasquatch Foods. 

    • We will do our best to cater to your food preferences and allergens. If you have special needs beyond Vegan/Dairy Free/Gluten Free, please be advised and prepare accordingly as we cannot guarantee other options or allergen-free items.

    • Please bring a reusable coffee mug for morning coffee or tea.
