They should have North Slope open by Christmas break, which is the medium park if you dont know.  Normally a 3 jump line 20-35 and a bunch of rails.  They'll also have a rail park at the start of the run.  If we get a ton of snow maybe they'll have Tryo (big park) open by then, but I wouldn't expect it.

Also you can expect at least one good day of tree skiing if you're going to be here for a week or more.

Yea Jeff, we conducted a survey at the end of the season and new rails were a huge request, so there you go. We plan on conducting surveys throughout the season as well.

I haven't fully decided on the opening setup, not sure where we'll be setting up, prolly up top somewhere, trying to get some space just below the octogon, maybe!! Or Ridgeview, we'll have to see what the weather and snowmaking brings in the next few weeks. But like always at leat 3 rail features setup for opening day!! Hope for cold temps so we can open on the 19th!!!

The new rails look so dope! Set those up for pre-season park for sure.

Even though I won't be able to ski them, pretty stoked to get back on snow this season.

Yup, right now the rails are stranded on islands of snow and not open(able). We are making snow as we speak and I hope to get a setup going here soon. First Trick is on Dec 11th, I hope we can get snow on 5th Ave for the setup for this if snowmaking goes well, it most likley will be a hike park...
