Mount Snow hiking?

Do they set up rails for hiking  or do the locals just set shit up themselves?  My ignorance shines as you can tell.

yeah how much snow do you have?

its worth it for people who live near mt snow.

and to answer the question, im pretty sure people just set shit up theirselves. but dont quote me on it

Homies just set some shit up. As long as everyone is respectful, doesn't steal rakes or shovels and picks up their trash, it's all good!

Last year we made a 60' eight kink down the middle of the pipe, it was killler. I also had this dank jersey booter out of the pipe...that set up was soo prime!

yeah usually people just set stuff up down the middle of the pipe where there is plenty of snow. i believe one of mount snows web cams points up the half pipe so check that out on their website.

obviously the snow melted more quickly then last year, but theres still a good amount. i went last year probably 3 weeks after they closed and had a super sick sesh on their mellow dfd, real fun.

Locals. Most of the park crew kids and locals hang around post season. Nice settup in the pipe last year. when that melted out we started setting stuff up on inferno.

I might go up this weekend. We went from end of season to first weekend in june last year

It does. You can see yourself hitting stuff and setting it up on the webcam. Sucks that the bottom of the pipe already started to go. But The middle has some solid coverage

me an some janky muthers went up last year and set up rails.  The pipe was all melted out but there was still plenty up where the booters were on inferno.  We made a 4 jib line.  Pain in the ass to drag the rails up there but i you have a crew its definitely worth it.  I recomend just getting a bunch of those little 8ish foot flat bars and putting them together as kinks - there a lot lighter.  Hopefully will be up there soon!

so the session went off today at mt.snow, edit will drop shortly. We set up a super mellow dfd rail, dfd box, and there was an epic urban down rail and the nike 6.0 box as a flat. kids from 860 will be going up later this week or possibly this coming weekend hit me up if your going.

went today for a few hours and it was super fun.

there is the big urban-style down rail at the top but the lip is super low and no one was hitting it. then there is the mellow dfd, a 25ft(?) down bar thats real fun, a dfd box, the nike 6.0 box and a couple other little rails and jibs.

shameless self-promotion because its at MS, even though the chairs were still spinning, and it didn't get any comments.  this is my ode to windows movie maker- from here on out, its imovie.  I realize its kind of long, but the best park stuff is at the end.  let me know if there are any other ski disciplines/ spring shenanigans that weren't included.
