it's obviously still under construction... it will be powder coated... and that mesh part where the people are is going to be box surface... it will also be lit from the inside for night shoots... going to be so rediculous.

It will obviously be set so that the steep part is uphill... I can't f$#cking wait to ride it.

Guys, echo mountain will never, EVER open!!! I drove by there in dec. and there was probably 2 inches on the ground, then last week i drove by there and it seemed like there was even less. Unless they have mad crazy snowmaking, this place will never happen.

according to my buddy at Planet Snow (they are designing the park) they have 13 million gallons of water to blow snow with starting last weekend. Each year they can use more water (based on a graduating model. They will have snow for this season and a park.

There IS mad crazy snowmaking... and this is the first year ever. The lodge is just getting finished and I'm sure they just started blowing snow recently... next year they'll be able to start blowing snow a full 4 months earlier... This year is going to be fun as hell but next year is going to be off the hook.

classic ns, condeming something skiers crave before it ever has a chance to succeed.

no dude. to be classic NS, you have to condemn EVERYTHING, even if it has already succeeded.

In the world of snowmaking, 13m gallons of water is absolutely miniscule.

they only have like 40 acres to cover, so they wont need as much as most places.

besides the fact that the park is going to be really fun this year and even better next year... imagine a resort where there is 0 green and blue groomers to dedicate cat hours to... evertything should be tits all the time.

Anyway... besides the actual park.. it should just be a dope place to hang out. There are video games... tons of ski/snowboard movies, ping pong, food, music on the whole hill, cool local art up there instead of some gay painting of a majestic buffalo... give it a chance.
