So the word from work is that they're opening up tomorrow at 3 P.M.  I doubt they'll have any rails up yet but just thought I'd let you guys know.

thats gay...how are you suppose to have any fun if nothing is set up...last year at sunburst they have a big berm of snow in front of the parking lot at the bottom of Exhibition, and me and my buddies took a trash can turned it on its side and made a lil stalling jib and it was sick until a lifty made us take it down..

scott nueinhise (sp?) is the park manager. he tells the groomer what needs to be done and he does it. we also have our park crew.
and on another note, the new groomer should be arriving an day.

that doesn't always work the greatest. telling people what to do that don't ever ride park doesn't normal work.

at wilmot its different there is a park manager. and then me who builds so the other guys that groomer stay the fuck out of the park. new groomer wilmot just got there PB 400 2 weeks ago
