The park cat built a couple 15-25 foot jumps as well as a quarter pipe on Bonanza last night. Mgmt has also approved the installation of a bunch of rails on DiamondBack. Bonanza park is scheduled to be open today but we need another night or two of low temps/humidity/winds before DBack will be ready. Enjoy.

We finished making snow on Diamondback, guess it's up to the park crew now to set it up. Sorry about Bonanza... Eldora's been sucking up to the racers. It's so hard to contribute to this community as an employee here.

yeah, i wasnt super hip on bonanza last season, it just doesn't seem like a good run for a park (shaded, icy, relatively steep, suuuuper short). i've been stoked on edits with really flat parks, like mellow green runs with lots of features that are more like street skating than big mountain mega parks.

regardless i love eldo and will continue to ride every weekend there. looks like its getting lit up right now, brians glades should be awesome this weekend!

It's okay, the amazing snow today made up for Bonanza and Dream and scream. It was a pow day...Stoked on good snow.

Not sure if my input means anything, but if the crew could keep the lips of features in shape that'd be sweet. The boxes and rails are almost too flush with the snow, so its a "super ride on", except for the down rail in Bonanza.
