So I know that they have installed a super big magic carpet and have started snowmaking, but what is the deal? Is it going to be a tubing hill? I heard a rumour they will have some jibs? I also heard that a ticket is $40?! Anyone know?

Are you talking about the Nordic center near Summit Hospital?  I have never seen a rec center in Frisco...

they wouldn't make a penny if it was 40 bucks a ticket, It may be 40 bucks for the season, but that seems a bit low...who knows.

Toby was trying to tell me this wasn't going to happen this season. Confirmed: park open til 6 once night skiing starts.

$29 for tubing and rails I think... Maybe they'll make a seperate ticket just for the jibs. Its $25-$30 to tube at Copper... Im guessing they want to be competition to that. Do they have tubing at Breck and Key?
