Does timberline care if you hike the public park in the summer without a lift ticket?

i know this doesn't answer your question fully, but I haven't met a single park ranger bitch made enough to care about people hiking without a ticket. if the park requires a park pass, then that's a different story

I know for a fact you need a park pass for the big boy park and they are pretty strict about checking for it.

They have people who watch for hikers. Sometime. You can hike the MTN. But the park is in bounds. You need a ticket to use it. You make be able to ride it all day or get busted before you get there.

I got caught poaching last summer. Guy just made me ski down. Sometimes there’s no one checking for passes on the mile lift and you can just hop on. It’s all a gamble

If you can get to the top of the park you can hike each feature a bit on your way down and it won’t look very suspicious. And then hope there’s no one checking for passes at the lift so you can do it again. Also in late summer the public park is on Palmer and they don’t usually check for passes on that lift so if you can get up there you should be good

I went in July last summer. No bueno, the park was to the right (facing downhill) of the lift and was not worth the 100something$ ticket, at the bottom you had to hike across some rocks to get back on the lift. Theres a bigger park to the left (not all the way over to Windells), but I hit the first feature and got yelled at, told me to fuck off and what not. Not sure if I was just being a jerry and it was closed off or what, but it didn't help the experience.

All in all I didn't find it worth it.

Jesus Christ hiking for 30 minutes for one park lap sounds like fun.
