Twin City area park setups

So I am doing a mock web site for a class assignment. It has to be on the Minneapolis area, so decided to do a side by side comparison of park setups of area hills (within about an hour of the cities) for a site. I have Afton, Buck Hill, Hyland, Welch and Wild. are there any others within an hour? (sorry haven't lived here long)
I know Hyland and Buck Hill have Jibs But they don't post their setup
online. I e-mailed them but was thinking that someone here may know
them by memory. If anyone could post their setups that would be sick...otherwise my only recourse will be field research.

i posted the afton and buck ones in diffrent threads if u do some searching u will be able to find them, the hyland setup is in the decline of midwest parks thread on one of the pages, that should be a good start but u should go ski

say what?
right now we have a small trap rail,
up rail (i like it)
down rail
flat down
up flat
boxes
stupid, moronic, dragon tail
flat up flat box
c box
big fat box (set sideways in the hill and really really dumb)
AMP WALL HIT! really fun but the trany gets destroyed after about 2 hours
for the jumps, its really hit or miss...
we have 2 side by side 2ft jumps
then we have one jump that is probably around 20ft? never measured it... but the sucker is super inconsistent from one day to the next
PS im "superbad" like really "superbad" but i have fun :)

+ THE Powder Ridge had a nice handrail till it broke. And yes, our 20 footer is so weird for speed.

hmmm so thats what happened to it... i figured they were to chicken to put it out till the PBandJ rail jam..
(note) ive never hit it, but if it was like it was at the beginning of this year i might have had a small chance at it later this year..
