I know a lot of racers that have been up there, but I haven't personally.
What do you want to know, I could probably help you out a bit.

Why would you go to farnham in february? You could just go get hill space at just about any mountain, and if you do moguls, then you could probably just head up to COP during the day. Is there any real reason you would go to farnham? Why would you need the space at farnham? Sorry, this just doesn't make sense to me.

I haven't heard any talk about Jumbo in the past year or so... has there been any word on if they're closer to getting approval for it or what?

as for me, i'm sitting on the fence for this one. a ski resort in canada that's got terrain around (or above?) 3000m will be most amazing - but the whole grizzly bear habitat and the state the north american ski industry is in right now - should it be done? yep, sitting on the fence for sure.
