Friday night, me and a friend drove 100 miles from Great Falls to Great Divide to go night skiing in their newly opened park. We got their at dusk and got our $9 lift tickets half (a promotion they do for other ski area's season passes)
The mountain was icy as hell and it appeared as though they only had about a foot of natural snow.
The park on the other hand was sick! It included multiple jumps ranging from 10-50 ft, a 50 foot hip, c rails, battleship box, 30 foot wallride, 40 ft down rail 5 kink rail (down flat down flat down) and lots of other stuff. What made the park so interesting is the way it was laid out. Everything was super close together and it reminded me more of a skatepark than a terrain park.
They are serious about their park this year. Kevin, the owner told us that so far this season they have put in 200 man hours and $150,000 on the park.
Basically if you dont ski Big Mountain or Big SKy it is worht the trek to Great Divide.
