so this is the plan. they blow snow on clifford, then skyline and THEN they start blowing snow for the park. its going to be on the skiers left side of marshall. and they'll have 2 new rail/box type things.

yeha basically they will blow snow to open all the lifts so they can charge full price and they go back and build a park, leftside of marshall form teh top AKA otherside from last year. With everything from last year, minus the down and kink rail, plus 2 new rails

that sounds shitty
clifford is a really bad hill to build a park on, at least the side they are using
you could build a sweet one on the opposite side, but they use that for races

i think there should be a park pass, so that famillys and little kids are kept out. That way fortune would have more money to buy stuff for the park too!

Skied Camp fortune today and the hills are pretty boring right now. Peeno, cliford, sparks, meech and canadian ar open. They need to get a park. one or two good jumps would be fine for now untill they can get the full park open. Just something to get your hopes up for the drive up there.

Fortune has just finished blowing more snow than ever before on a single run! Park construction begins tomorrow and will hopefully be completed by tuesday night. Although not all features will be ready by wednesday, most will.

As it stands right now there will essentially be two paths you can take down skiers' right of Marshall, which is where the park will be. Closest to the trees will be the jump line. The jump line will include one wedge tabletop where last years jump was, followed by another table on the flats, with the last pitch as its landing. The next line will basically be a rail line that will include, as of now, the coffin box, flat down box (it will be set up on the same knoll as the first big table and will be beside the medium table, which is just to the left of the first big table). After the flat down box, there will be a hip/table jump with a hip landing to the right, then the c boxes setup together, followed by the down flat down rail (set up on the same knoll as the final table). And finally the park will end with the new 16' by 10' wall ride.

Peewee will also have some beginner and other rails.

There will not be park passes, but the whole park will be fenced off and park maintenance staff can give people the boot if they aren't following the rules.

Get out there wednesday and see how you like the setup and give some feedback, before everything becomes completely frozen in place. The setup promises to have nice flow with a variety of staple features.
