Right from the site.

Hopefully Kurt can chime in and let us know if a day pass is going to be required to attend, or if the jam can just be hiked if you'd rather not take the lift.

wait, so it looks like your going to have to buy a day pass or have a seasons pass for this....

What happened to it being open to anyone? I highly doubt kids are gonna pay $89.

Thought the First Trick and Last Trick was always free, Kurt help us out here. Assume your hands are tied on this, but can you provide any insight?

So I don't set the date or time of any event so thoes of you who will be gone by then, dang.

The event is free (no entrance fee) but lift ticket is always required if we are open for skiing/riding, last trick is free because we are not open.

Still very little snow down low so the event will be held on the upper mountain and I will change out some of the features, I want to move it to mid mountain where there's more room for more features but still figuring that one out as of right now.

Only the location and features are within my power to change anything about the event... all the other stuff... ???

It's not a rail jam, it's just an open session for anyone, well anyone who can afford the $89 day pass, or has a seasons pass.

Wouldn't be upset if they didn't charge $1800 for a pass lol.

Just gonna hike once the park down at the base is set up. Kurt I wouldn't hold it against u if you set up a flat rail down there for me :: )

hey man i didn't go up today since it was -30 or something, but i heard it's a flat box, then the butterknife thing, then cannon, then flat down rail.  up near the top of the triple.  sounds fun.  i might not have remembered all the features right. 

Oh I was very excited on Wednesday to see that they're starting to blow for jumps on North Slope, dunno if anything's official though.

Hope that's good news for you.  Good luck on the exams

so the setup is in kinda a weird spot...it's right at the top of the triple along the side...the setup is the flat box to butterslice box to Canon tube to flat down rail...the box is decent with good pop off the lip...the butterslice is...i dont know what the hell to do on it haha and you dont have enough speed to come off it switch and go into the canon...canon is pretty much the same with a pretty short outtake so if you are boosting spins off it you're gonna land flat and the flat down is sick and really easy to disaster tricks with, its also got a little hop on where the down starts...ill be up there tomorow but it's gonna be crazy packed hiking

my 2 cents
