Yeah! The old, closed ski resort "Squaw Pass" are going to open again as a big ass terrain park. No Norwal slopes, just pure action all over the place!
The resort have around 650 vertical feet and the new owners have already put in 6 million dollars. A three seat chairlift is to be build. Music and DJ every day.

Its about an half hour cartrip from Denver....
And the plan is that its going to be done around christmas this year!

If yall didn't know.......

650 vertical feet? that's not all that bad for a park. My mountain has 1600vf but the park is only about 1000 of that and it's not all used, things are really spaced out.

my mtns park is about 1100 ft "long", not all used but...

seems tite to me, park only, no families with their kids that block kickers and that jump over the lips of rails just to get 1ft of air to flat ground.

It makes sense for such a small ski area to do this because they cant compete with bigger hills for your average carvers and rec. skiers

yea Bear mtn in Cali did that a while ago.

its basically all boarders, but if i lived near that shit id be soo stoked.

freeskier did an article with it in it

----------------------------------------- ----------

-It was a 38, the poor man's machete
-Held it in my hand thinkin damn man its heavier than expected
-wedged it behind my belt buckle, knowin that its evil, even thought i could smell trouble
-the extra strength felt weak, but over there on the corner, saw what i need and proceeded to cross the street
-put the heat in a mailbox, to lose it
-figured the post office knows whats best to do with it.

Last I heard (May) Coker was still living in Bear.

Yeah Bear Mtn. was the first one to go completely park. There are features on every run and midseason there are usually 150+ different features including jumps, jibs, and other things you'd never imagine were jibbable.

I think its sick that other areas are catching on.

how dumb is it to have only a damn park. that shit makes up so little of the ski industry, but hey if they dumped 6 mill into it already im sure the bank must be dumb enough to keep it running for another 2 or so years before they realize their loan is based on supplying punk kids with rails and jumps that they have to beg there mommies to go too in their van.
