So there has been quite the dilemma going on for the past couple weeks in Tahoe. A local resort (Mt.Rose) has been denying all of the kids that ride at the resort(mostly pass holders) a terrain park since they have opened, let alone a couple rails or boxes, after opening with a park almost every year before this. Ironically, they also started a freestyle ski/snowboard program this year that costs around 1500 dollars for a single spot that filled up with eager kids wanting to learn how to jump and jib. Unfortunately, a lot of these kids are stuck riding there every weekend and are actually getting in trouble by ski patrol for jumping around on side lips and going fast down the groomers. Because the mountain is so close to town and and some of them are still in school with no wheels to get around the lake a lot of them are doomed every weekend to ski groomers at a moderate to slow speed. Even though they continue to open up more terrain they keep ignoring all of the complaints from the park riders/parents/kids saying they don't have enough snow for a couple rails which is complete bullshit (I work terrain parks there). If you are in the tahoe area you would know that all the resorts here have the same issue with lack of snow yet mt.rose is still the only mountain open without a park.
Pretty much all I am asking: if you have a facebook account, leave a comment on their FB page telling them to set up a park. It doesn't have to be nice nor does it have to be mean, just mention setting up a park ASAP. Leave a comment on the thread after and ill give you 10/10.
