Dude...   say why it sucked.   it doesn't help to just say it sucked..  I know tons of kids who were superstoked and were tearing things up.  What problems did you have?

sorry, I was a little sensitive because so many people were there and I watched park crewing trying in the afternoon, but kids (including my own) were hollering at them to hurry up, "don't salt" cause they were so hyped up to hit stuff - they just didn't want to wait.   Then, nobody apparently waxes there stuff and yesterday with the wet snow made that much slower if you didn't wax.

unless it gets warmer for longer than forecasted and if it rains more than forecasted then yes, they will be open for next weekend.  Pray for cold so they can open some more trails.  It looks marginal.

I was there from just after 10am till about 3pm and left because park crew was out once and for all we could tell had no intentions of coming back out.  Last Sunday they came out a little late, but once they were done things were great and stayed that way cuz they had used salt. Yesterday from what I could tell no attempt was made to open at 10am with a well manicured park. It was like alright we're gonna open but you guys can ride shit setups until we feel like getting up, and then when we do get up we're not gonna do it right.

I'm not really tryin' to be a hater cuz I'm more than stoked on riding in November, but I was a bit disappointed because I paid for a pass. I don't think I would have really said anything because I know what it is like to work on a park crew with tough conditions, but the fact that while I was there it didn't appear as though they were even trying just kinda jaded me. They spent more energy trash talking the kids telling them to do something than they actually spent on the features...

My brother and I went there today and in general it was ok. The snow was real slow and my invaders havn't been waxed yet so that added to it. Some of the take offs were sketchy but there were about 3 to 4 really decent ones. The jump on the other hand needs some work, the landing was pretty much flat rutted out ice. It is worth it tho if you really want to hit some rails to warm up.

jump? you mean the ditch thats probably used to direct snow-melt runoff? and i'd start getting used to waxing your invaders regularly, they don't have the world's fastest bases.

If I give you $4 will you stop whining about the stupid hamburger?  This is Freeskiing's Online Community not SpongeBob's Crabby Patty Discussion Forum.
