haha mtrose is NOT a mountain you want to go to when you want to ride park
like 3-4 years ago maybe but not now, the mountain is pretty fun tho. they've got the chutes with a couple double black runs (never really been a big fan) not alot of cliffs, or anything gnarly. Just a fun mountain on pow days, not a very friendly atmosphere tho, when i was younger i would constantly get yelled at by douche bags for the randomest shit. Even got called out for skiing switch in the park a couple times. Even got my passed yanked for skiing out of bounds when i was 13. they suck at calling people back after interviews when they hire them for park staff... cough cough

well considering todays conditions at northstar with knee deep pow up top, mt rose would be epic because its really high elevation

mt rose is alright. It has the best elevation and all, so the snow stays better in the late winter months, and it does get a good amount of snow... for nevada...

but yeah.. it does get a bit of a yuppie feeling since Galena is just down the road from it and kinda runs the place...
