i do, they have a decent park, but i wish theyd make more jumps and a better pipe. The only good jump is the step down from the top of the hill.

Other than that, me and my snowboarding buddies(im the only skier) try to do cliff drops in the woods.

Sundown is in the hilly ass northern part of iowa, theres plenty of 10-20 foot cliffs around if you know where to find them.

its alright, snow at sundown is actually pretty good, mostly packed up powder. about 36 inch base

Everything else is OK, last year it sucked but hopefully itll be a better year this year. Reg snowfall is about 6-12 inches every snowstorm, then it melts after a week....
Anyway we manage.
