So now that canyon is about to close, what will become of Main park? smaller or bigger? Only huge features or small ones too?

The plan is to keep Main Park and Forest Trail up and running until it gets too "springy" then the park moves up to Chair #3.

Any chance there is a date when the Alpine park will start to build?

I really wish they would put a lip before or on the side of the lift tower jib

Pretty ridiculous, even if they only had 10 features it should only take one semi-mediocre operator 2 hours to maintain that stuff especially if it was mainly jibs. I was doing between 30 and 40 features a night this past season in just 8 hours, surely they can handle 10.

Taken today, 6/27. This is the spring pipe and park at the base of Saddle Bowl on the backside of 3.

Let's see.

Forest Trail might be up and running but make sure you have wax, it's slow in there. Jumps and jibs.

Spring Park has the pipe, 1 jump (big and small take off's) For jibs, flat box, rail and lift tower. I believe that's it. Trying to remember if it's a rail or box.
