Our local rope tow has seen better days, but they let anyone use the tools to fix it. I don't really wanna just go in there and go crazy if I don't know what Im doing, might make it worse. They have one of those nice rakes and shovels and stuff, any tips?

You kinda just move the rake back and forth until it’s raked

jumps are pretty hard to fix by hand, there is a lot of snow that needs moved around and it probably won't retain its shape unless it sits for a few hours.
