I had spoken to Alpine about the new lift - they replaced the chair that is 2nd from looker's left on the hill. They also mentioned, though I didn't make it there in the summer, that there was a lot of dirt/earth work done at the top for the new lift so it will service more terrain more effectively. It sounded like the "Mohawk" lift wasn't going to see too much action this year with the new lift in place.

yeah thats what it looked like, im goin to whitewater currently and im tryin to get a job there but i got some friends that work there that can get me free passes, they'd be dumb not to be plowing with how prime the temps are... either way i might to to tyrol or cascade this weekend, maybe even olympia with as shitty as it is, they started blowing plus two guys from tyrol are runnin the place now so the park setup could be alot better

So I'll start from top of run to bottom

1. Flat Bar Down Rail

2. Up Flat Pole Jam or CPVC

3. Urban Down Rail or Urban Flat Rail

4. 15 Foot Jump



There is also that other run to the side of the park that has two beginner features.
