if so that really sucks but they really did a poor job marketing that place. They hyped it up so much the first month and then stopped making updates. Then they built that wack ass jump (which could have been sick but it was really rushed and way more like a 5 foot skechy cliff drop. The management seemed really chill though what a shame.

i wouldnt be surprised. it seems like they had all these unrealistic plans that would cost a fortune, especially when they are offering conveniences to such a small market. it was absolutely inevitable.

They would have got way more business if it was in SLC rather than in Ogden

Apparently some NSers have either talked to the owners about it closing down or have actually seen crews gutting the place and throwing away the features

well that's a waste... they could have:

1. given them to a mountain (the rails)
2. given them to some random kid for a summer setup
3. sold them
4. anything but throw them away?

haha, i know you're not sure, but i'd be kinda disappointed if that were the truth.

Not really surprised at all.  With suc a small target market, I don't nkow how it could've survived.  For it to be profitable almost everyone in that target market would need to participate.

that sucks. I feel like something like this could defiantly be viable if done right. Need more tramp and foam pit stuff though.

No, it's called Ohio Dreams. Water ramps are a thousand times better than a foam pit.
