I'm gonna make a mountain bike track in the backyard, which is woods, that is multifunctional, a little bmx, ski in the winter and of course mountain biking, now I want some fun features, any good ideas? I've heard throwing some rails in, definetly jumps and berms, so any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

Wooden wall rides are great for bmx and MTB. Also, balance beams and such

remember to make all the transitions and pump bumps mellow so that you can ski on them. definitely build a drop in with a couple of different options, maybe one with turf and a rail (summer ski) and one wooden for bikes. manny pads are fun, make one of those for sure.

Sounds like you don't plan on mountain biking much...
