I know this was kinda mentioned in that other thread, but I am going to Alta and wondered if people always hit it and if they get ticked about u just watching-not hitting-watching. cuz i kinda wanna take some pics u know for the folks at home....unless i would get beat up by the locals. are they touchy about people watching people hit it like they are with people Hitting it?

Locals will beat you up
You'll most likely get a ticket for skiing
ive heard about some people getting ticketed for watching.
Its not smart to go to, cops have it monitored all year round

Well first, dint they blow it up? and second stepp is right, i heard you can get ticketed by cops if you watch or arrested, last year one guy got the electric chair cause he watched them hit it for too long

sometimes they do helicopter flyovers to see if there are people there, and if they are, they will give you a big ass fine. It's probably better not to go, and the locals will beat your ass, along with the yetis

What the?... Sounds a bit over the top to me.
You get fined by the police for skiing some inbound area of slope. Surely the kicker is only there when there's a company there filming, at which time its understandable.

its good to know that somebody can ask a question because they might not know everything about skiing and get such honest straight forward answers. I thought we were supposed to be a community to help one another, although I have seen very little help and nothing but kids hiding behind their computers and making smart ass remarks. Everyone deserves a trophy that reads "I am cooler than you and I will never help a fellow skier who is not from utah, colorado, or whistler and If your skullcandy headphones don't match next years gear i won't even acknowledge you as a person who enjoys the same lifestyle as me because this is a struggle to actually live life as a non-smart ass." believe I know the feeling.

for the real litagitamate answer on this thread no it is not built ear round you have to build it urself for the ticketing i doubt it its in the national forest and im pretty sure it isnt illegal to hike back there so yea

Once again, he said ticked, not ticketing
The jump is in the backcountry which means you have to build it yourself or hit it with a crew who is already building it. In general, backcountry protocol says if you didn't help shovel, you don't get to jump, and yes I'm sure a pro crew who is there to film and wants to maintain a good landing would be upset if you tried to start hitting it, but if you show up, no one's around, and the jump is there go for it. Otherwise, if you show up and someone is building it, offer to lend a hand, and you will probably be rewarded with a chance to session.
If you just want to watch, I've never seen anyone hitting a jump in Grizzly Gulch that didn't want an audience ;)
Hopefully that clears that up.

not all pros are douche bag surfer assholes. especially mfm you really think he would fuck you up if you were on state owned land. maybe if you sucked. but if you can hit chad's you better do something good, if you're doing straight airs then go hit the same size jump in the park.
