They've had 50cms of kerPOW in the last day and you're talking about Park?

Fuck, you'll just be lucky if the roads are open.

It'll continue to pound up there into the weekend too.

Lucky Jasper noob.

yo, i live in edmonton, and all the pow was gone when i went on sunday, and their park was a joke 2 small flat boxes and one rail, and they still had the rogers flags around it. Its still fun no matter what the conditions to go to a mountain. condishions were good, a little rocky at the top of eagle ridge pairidise and the new chair(which was sweet) but every thing else was all groomed )= with some bits of used pow in the trees, today would have been amazing to go because it was snowing hard all day and night

they get lots of snow, but the place is flat and boring, except for one area which is called the cliff which is pretty steep but gets skied out super fast after a big dump because its the only spot that you can actually use the snow they get
