well my mtn has no park, 22 trails, 5 chairs, a pipe groomer (sitting in a shed, not pipe, WTF???) and two lodges. Oh theres also a ski patrol who go down in the "pizza slice" and chase after hoolgans who should dare to build a few very small jumps and drops in the woods. Oh, the mountain is on STATE LAND which makes it blow more cause there are police tnere all the time and the managers don't claim responsibility for actually clearing out the two "glades"

and the trail map

it has about 300 vert, gets 60" snow/yr, and the claimed terrain park has 4 sucky rails that yhey dont even build the jump up to, and no jumps. They even knock them down when you try to build a jump yourself.

you can't call them jumps. call them rollers.

the medium sized ones have a flat of 5 meters. that's about 15feet

Their "big jump" has a flat of 25feet.
and they have said for the last 3 years now, that they are gonna be the best park in norway

fuck that. I hate it when people say they have a shitty mountian when it at least has trees. Im just kidding though, ur hill does suck. But seriously, I have no trees on mine. U seen Aspen extreme? I ski at mt brighton. U know, the one they walk to the top of in the beginning, thats the one.

It's funny how even in the west coast, there are hills just as small as those. These are two mountains which are within 45 minutes of eachother:

Mountain Number 1: Salmo Ski Hill

Mountain Number 2: Red Mountain

i hope this works so you can see my patheticness. Do you remember in last winter's women of freeskiing, (i forget who it was) said that she used to ski on an old garbage dump in se wisconsin? its this hill. it never was a garbage dump, but its sure a dump. then there is Grand Geneva, which, despite helping to produce a few big names, including the battersbys, blows. and alpine valley is close, but the shitty one, not the other one. there are a lot of super dope sledding hills around too. There are, amazingly, a few really good skiers from around here, though, such as matt sterbenz, bart singleton, and the aforementioned battersbys. at least we have a place to ski though. imagine how the skiers in burkina faso must feel.

supposedly to the left of wildwood and behind the mohawk lift (theres a stone wall in a depression that makes a natuarl quarter pipe by the end of the year but you have to go off ledges to get to it) there were two years with a park, and theres a rumer (i heard from jenny) that there would be jumps on timber this year. btw who are you

I'm still laughing. Sorry for mocking it's beauty... but that is just awesome.

it really doesnt have a half pipe, because all the little kids carve jumps out of the side of the pipe, effectively ruining it. and there wasnt a park when i lived there, they didnt try to build a real park until i went away to school.
