I thought the middle one was money on Thursday when it opened up. Sunday it was too slow to clear it consistently. The bottom step up is pretty fun though.

yeah same here man. i was so pumped to go skiing then i heard it was going to rain so i didn't go. woke up and it wasn't raining. i guess it rained over night and the roads were really icy by my house. so i made a rail instead and while i'm building it my dad walks outside to tell me it's going to be 55 and thunderstoming tomorrow. great. all the snow will melt and i will have a rail sitting in my yard.

S Box will be open for Tuesday, it's on the flat run out of black forest, skiers right of the small table.  The idea was to have the 100 footer be on that downslope, until it was just discovered that the sections are bent from when non park crew took it out last year.  Now there is hardly any snow on that section so it'll be a while before anything goes in there.

Robby's on vacation until Friday so put in a word to the groomers and steve voss to make sure they use the blade to fill in the landing and takeoff ruts.  The tillers don't solve that problem.

PS the jumps are the same whether you hit them in the middle or on the side!

 ^forgot

After the roller box is the blue "cliff rail" or what ever you want to call it.  It's set up with a pretty good downslope on your way down to black forest.
