Just got an email from them saying that they will have 2 chairs running and just exhibition open on Wed. They hope to have 7 runs open by Thanksgiving. So much for the rumor that the park will be open at the same time. Hopefully by this weekend the rope will be running.

There just wont be a 45 footer cheese wedge, more like a 35 step up or table.  The industry as a whole is moving away from the bigger step down jumps, insurance reasons and Jim is very conservative so at least he didn't adopt RCR (i.e. Lake Louise) policies. 

Robby did get the ok to put up more of the junk scrap in the park so we'll see what he finds, anyone ever look over there by white carpet?  Some intriguing stuff!

the tower pole at the bottom is really sweet!

Jumps were still not properly built, supposedly blamed on "not his normal groomer" as his fuel pump broke.  Lose a groomer and chair two, please ship parts ASAP!!!!

Picnic table followed by Rainbow to flat rail now followed by down box.

A couple of tires are also up at the top
