How long is your home park?

I've been watching these "a run with" videos from Quebec, and I find it interesting to see how many hits people get at their home parks. After coming home from Whistler where it takes at least 4-5 minutes to get through the park, if not longer.

At home it takes about 15 seconds to go top to bottom at my park:




So how long does it take you to get down your park? Video evidence would be awesome.

We have a few parks.

One has 3 lines:
3 small jumps
line of 4 boxes
line of 4 rails

One has like 5 lines. Probably contains 30 - 40 features.

And one has only one line, but it is about 40 features.

I ski dryslopes and indoor

My indoor has about 16 different rail features, the rails are in 4 separate lines which each have 4 rails, so not much of a wait.

My dry slope has a permanent park which is flat box or ufd box with a 8ft kicker
On park nights theres a.......
canon box
up flat box
rainbow rail
7 kickers
ufd
flat box
flat bar
barrel tap
another flat box.

takes about 2 minutes top to bottom on park nights at the dryslope and 5 at the indoor

Stratton, the trail is Lower Middlebrook.
That was a very rough guess. The last time I was in there was about 1 month ago. But I am positive there is only 1 line but it has at least 30 features. The trail is very, very narrow, but it is really long.

you can get like 6 or 7 hits in my park but each lap takes like 5+ minutes cause the trail down to the park is just as long as the park and the section below the park is half as long

Both parks in Whistler and Blackcomb are pretty long, got a lot of features and they are movin them once or 2 times a week so you never get bored about always lapping the same order of features !

Like 10-15 seconds, first there's a battleship box, then you have a choice of a jump, c box, or cannon box, then after that you have a choice of a quarter pipe propane tank , DFD box, down rail, and a random tire, then after that you have a choice of a spine, rainbow rail, flat down box, wooden cannon, and a tiny jump. Our park sucks

Flat bar, Flat box, Rainbow box. All lined up side-to-side, so a lap in one hit.

The staff in charge of the park at my hill are probably going for a world record...and this world record would be for worlds smallest terrain park.We have a butter box(about 8 feet long) and to the right of that an up flat(both parts about 3-3.5') and after the box we have a down bar (about 6/7 feet long) and after the up flat we have a down flat about same size.We also have 2 jumps.One jump is "15 feet" which actually is like 10 feet and we have another that is about 5 feet...My hill is poop :(

Wisp's park can't even be called a park.  The most hits you can get in a run are 3. But most lines get you 2.  There are about 7 features in total.  As someone on here once said, they have so much potential for a nice park - they seriously have like 10 features just laying at the bottom of the park that are unused.  Management doesn't like parks, though I guess...

Someones posted my other local mountain, Seven Springs.  The Alley is so much better than Wisp.  Hell I'd take their beginners park over Wisp's...

Finally, Snowshoe, WV stepped up their game this year and now have a progression park with about 4 15 to 20 footers and about 8 boxes or rails of varying difficulties, from ride on ground-level boxes to skinny urban on rails.  The worst part about it is the lift blows.

Depends, my home mountain has a park, a run - that goes to another park. So basicly you go from park to park down the mountain. But I'd say maybe 1 minute to 2 minutes tops.
