Anyone doing the rail event this weekend at Granite Peak? I just saw the set up tonight at work and it looks pretty sick.

I didn't get a pic at work last night b/c it was too dark but I'll try to get up there today. So far they had a kink rail and a big culvert going down to a funbox. It looked like a lot of fun.

I was told that it was open but that could very well be wrong.

I'm going to work tomorrow and will double check that skiers can enter and will see if there's a digital waiver I can send to you.

I am pretty positive that Bald Eagle Cup is snowboarders only but I could be wrong.  If you add Granite Peak Parks as a facebook fan you can see pictures of the setup and up to date information on contests and that.

the Bald E-Gal Cup is only snowboarding...  Is there another comp that day too?  if there isnt, that means there is not skiing

So, apparently the person I asked about it forgot that I was a skier....and it is indeed a snowboarder only comp....talk about lame. Sorry guys :-( It will still be opening day though! Idk what they have up yet for park though.

This weekend doesn't look that exciting for skiers either unless you want to hit groomers. I haven't been up yet but according to the website the only park open is the Main Event one. I'd recommend that people head up to Indianhead where they got 18" of snow

Nice! Glad you had an awesome time! Were all the runs open? I worked all weekend so I wasn't able to get out. We had pretty good conditions all weekend from what I heard. Jumps are up on Birch Run and Main Even park is open with some features. Might try to head up north later this week though. Let me know when you're down at GP!
