XC CROSS-COUNTRY MTB CAMP
New for 2026, this cross-country mountain bike camp is built for NICA riders and young mountain bikers who want more trail time, better coaching, and real progression over the course of the week.
YOUTH XC MOUNTAIN BIKE CAMP (NEW FOR 2026) | AGES 9-17
AUGUST 2 - 8, 2026
Milepost 35’s Youth XC Mountain Bike Camp is a 7-day, all-inclusive program on Mt. Hood, Oregon, built for young riders who want to improve on the bike. Designed for NICA athletes and other youth riders who love to pedal, the program focuses on cross-country riding, skill development, daily coaching, and video feedback in a fun, structured camp environment.
Campers ride the private Wy’East Mountain Academy campus and nearby Mt. Hood trail systems, with access to XC loops, singletrack, and varied terrain that supports progression for a wide range of riders. With more than 30 years of camp programming experience and a staff of 100+ coaches and team members, Milepost 35 provides a well-supported setting where riders can build confidence, improve fitness, and sharpen key skills like climbing, descending, cornering, and trail awareness.
Whether a camper is newer to XC riding or already racing, this program is built to help them ride more, learn more, and come away stronger and more confident on the trail.

M35 GIRL™
M35 Girl™ is our way to warmly welcome and encourage girls to progress their skills through riding and hanging out with female peers and mentors in a supportive, all-girl world within the friendly confines of a co-ed camp. Every session we offer optional all-girl activities, all-girl clinics, and unique, M35 Girl™ events.
GROMS™ | CAMPERS AGE 9-12
The word grom (short for grommet), refers to a child under the age of 13 who has endless energy and wants nothing more than to be on their bike all day long. To make sure camp groms have the time of their life at M35, we've developed a program just for them that caters specifically to their needs.
WANT TO STAY FOR MULTIPLE SESSIONS?
No problem! A lot of M35 campers choose to stay for multiple summer sessions. Rest assured, we’ve got your camper covered! There is a short break between each summer session (called the “in-between”), but we don’t take a break from having FUN with in-between session adventures and activities led by dedicated camp staff.
