I took a trip up to the Big today.

As you can see, there is still a bunch of snow.

They are getting underway with the change of chairlifts, here are all the chairs from Chair 1 in the Cedar parking lot.

I built and hit this cool jib on the chair 5 lift shack.

After that, I went to the park and hit the s rail and a crazy rail to rail to box contraption with Alex (skik2pe) and Shay( SHski) and Conrad. Both are still up.

Alex threw down a bs switchup on the rail- rail gap and then slid the rest of the rail and box clean. It was hot.

Hopefully I will be up tomorrow, if I can get out of bed.

I do all ages here in Polson. Polsons oldest team is U-16 so i havent done older although I totally could if needed.  Are you talking about Montana Cup or State?  I kind of doubt i will go to either, where is it at even? If its in like Missoula or Kalispell  or somewhere close i bet i would go
