Its my first season here so idk whats up but does big sky/moonligh or anyone have any rails set up early season/preseason? Either by the resorts themselves or just some random kids. Or at bridger, idk if they even have rails there lol.

Yeah i think that is just some kids finding the resorts rails/boxes and setting them up. If you do this you should put them back when you are done or the next year they will all be locked up. At least that's what they did back home.

Regardless, I still haven't heard of anything. Last year there were some rails up hyalite, but I don't know if those are there this year.

Uh, I don't know about how much snow there is up there right now, they are right below the bottom of the bridger lift if that gives you any idea.  The bust factor is really low, we had a couple employees go right by us on snowmobiles and no one said a thing.  If they aren't going to have the common sense to chain em up, they can't really complain when kids go hit them.  Plus there is no liability because the land is owned by the forest service.

The other weekend we had some rails up at lost trail. which is down by hamilton. The snow was good, speed was fine, and the two flat boxes were sick.
