I would certainly miss the park, but if I was given a chance like that, I would say that yes I would.

Who gives a fuck, if you have unlimited backcountry access and cliffs to huck off why would you need jumps? You could just trick off the cliffs if you wanted, and just use natural features.

I'd have to say no because for me skiing is about variety or else it gets boring. i got bored of groomers after 3 years so i moved on to park. if i only do park though, i might get bored of that too.

Anyone who says no is a very strange person. This is the dream. The ultimate setup being the perfect mountain. Who needs a park with unlimited BC? Take a couple courses and start in easy places and you won't get killed by an avalanche hopefully. It would be worth it though. Oh so worth it.

no, and i wouldnt give up backcountry to ski park either. i like a mix of both, otherwise it gets boring. i wouldnt want to ski park every day for the rest of my life, and i wouldnt want to ski backcountry for the rest of my life.

it's hard for me to answer this question, because I do have unlimited backcountry access with cliffs, pow, pillow lines, and all that fun stuff in between - and a park at the base that is good enough to get my jib on.


so it's the same as the old question of "sex or skiing". I choose both.

no question. in a heartbeat. you can haul ass off a cliff and crash but it wouldnt hurt as much as it would in the park. the powder makes you jizz in your pants cause its so soft. there are endless possiblities in the backcountry. sure there are risks, but if there were no risks, what fun is it?

While it seems awesome I would say no. It would be the greatest thing ever for quite some time but you can only build some many booters and drop som many cliffs before you get bored. I would want a mix of both bc and park. I'm pretty happy with the mixture I have now t be honest.
