so I pulled into the lot at my home mountain and I look over to the trail with our really shitty terrain park and it's just flat there was literally no trace that there was ever a park there.

Fuck global warming. In 50 years we might not even have snow.....
I was watching Cody Townsend and he said it's sad how some of the mountains he has done might be some of the final descents.

Pics? There is nothing more depressing than snow melting and seeing exposed features and knocked over rails.

I think the downrail in the steel city jam was wobbling because so much snow had melted. Also there was a massive brown puddle in the in-run.

70 and thunderstorms in January is the new norm I guess.

I tagged Hyper because of his climate change thread. Then realized he had already seen this thread.

Didn't you guys get a few inches from this week's storm? You're also supposed to get 8-12 this weekend.

You'll be alright.

idk if they even have a park crew the park so shit I have no idea who builds it they might pay someone once a year to come in and build and then they just leave it up for the rest of the season, i've never seen anyone working on it. I honestly shouldn't be complaining I live an hour and half I way from Carinthia I should probably just go there.

Carinthia is sweet i had a pass 08-09 and rode a bunch the next few years. Was 3.5 hours for me. Even though lived 5 min from oak(no park at the time) and 40 min from gore(gheto park)

I feel ya though. Sucks when you wanna shed but cant. At least parks are way more prevalent than they were even 10 years ago. But ita impressive how little some people care or understand how to build them.

Nothing you can do about it. Our last 2 winters have been really good in the alps and this season is pretty bad. One bad season doesn't mean the world is gonna end. There's always good winters and bad winters.

News man said it was the end of the world, so lets loot all the kwiktrips! were all gonna die because the world will be a fireball by a date that keeps changing! You know, Al Gore said that we had 10 years to save the planet 11 years ago! We have -1 years to save our selves from an apocalypse!

We need cold temps bad..... natural snow would help, but for building parks snowmaking snow is best. Nothing beats the Snotty snow that comes out of snow guns.

Idk, the sting of it spraying the lifts at night, those weird glue sections when it's too wet, when that shit sets to concrete but you're still shredding with your friends. Okay, I fucking miss it a bit. Ice coast child here.

It’s almost like scientific consensus changes with the introduction of new information/research/technology. Weird
