We are opening tomorrow! Hours for today and tomorrow are 9-4:30. There will only be a handfull of runs open.  We are setting up a small park in the North Park.  There should be at least 5 rail/box features set-up... if we have time and snow we will certainly set up more.  I'm heading up there at 3 AM tomorrow to set rails so I hope to see some of you out shredding tomorrow

Gonna have to hit up cascade a few times this winter if they got that dedication. Like Trevor said, Tyrol sets shit up at 3PM, and then during there open hours. They set up a down-flat-down at like 6 tonight.

Well I think it was a succesful opening weekend... got maybe 10 hours of sleep, went skiing for a solid 14 hours, and celebrated someones 30th birthday inbetween all of it.  Ski season is definitely game on.  So, I think it's time to catch up on some of that sleep and then do it again next weekend. I hope that those of you who came out liked the rails we had set up.  We are open Tuesday and Thursday nights and then opening Friday for the season.  I'm not sure what the plan is for the park yet in the near future, but I know we are going to make a shit load of snow during the next week.  We're shooting to be 100% open by Christmas.

I have to work every single day that Tyrol is open this week, so I might go up on Thursday if I can find some others to come along too. Don't know how I'm feeling about that yet though.

How much are tickets? Either I'm blind, or I couldn't find them on the site.

Well yeah, I saw that. But I didn't think they would charge full price for 1 park. Unless 44$ isn't full price.

It's Cascade, I wouldn't expect anything less. They're not trying to please the customers. It's 100% about how many dollars they put in their pockets. And too many Chicago tourists will gladly shell out $50 for 2 runs.

I'm not positive but i'm guessing they're full price.  But you could certainly just get a day or night pass or whatever cheaper ones they have.

our crew all bailed on cascade this year after they ruined the park last year.
word on the street was that they were going to keep it that way this year. They keep upping the price on season passes and tickets and keep lowering the quality of the park.

on a different note. its supposed to dump tomorrow night and is snowing right noweezyyyyy

this 12 inches of snow is going to help cascade and Tyrol out a lot and i have a feeling there is going to be a llllooooooottttt of people there at Cascade and it is going to be crazy. with only a few runs open the park is going to get destroyed

If there's freshies you shouldn't even bother with the park... go find the good snow on the sides of the runs. And I'm pretty damn sure there will be more runs open tonight. By the weekend there will be probably 10+ runs going. I still haven't heard what we're doing with the park in the coming week but I will let you alll know when i know.

the box rumor might just be true... it won't be like super big, but definitely 30+ feet... i don't remember how long it is for sure. And I don't know about the setup for the weekend... probably the same as last weekend, but i'll find out for sure in a few hours when i get up there.
