boulder. the second jump on boulder is amazing and you should definitely be able to get some shots on it.

its getting there.
right now theres a little jump, maybe 15 ft gap with 100% chance of gapers.
2 barrel jibs, one is like 2 feet, the other 4-5. 20 ft flat down rail, 15 ft down rail, and a colvert jib

Boulder is always going to be good. But i do ski out of whiteface, and that is pretty good, but it's nothing like boulder.  That'd your best bet.

Here's what Toggenburg has going on as of 5 days ago, all the snow mounds you see lying around are in the process of being turned into jumps, resulting in a 5 jump line of 20-50 footers. This saturday we are having a big air comp and we are beginning our Park Pass which we hope will allow us to spend less time re-shaping features, and more time making stuff look perfect.

*with a scratched wide angle and patchy clouds.

just confirmed. togg has the sickest park in NY. Jump line is going to be dope. With this park pass being implemented its going to keep all of the little vultures out. Jack and Nick and the rest of the park crew have outdone themselves. stoked!

confirmed that the park is sick, hit it up on monday, also the trees, and "backcountry" were prime if you knew where to look.  How much is the park pass going to cost?

Park passes are free but you have to watch a video and sign a waiver.

yeah i'm knew to toggenburg, go to school at SU, so its not my home mntn, but i'm really liking it so far, and seem to be fiding the "backcountry" or "secret stashes"  I really like how they don't rope off or block off the trees/woods/resort boundries at togg and how they don't groom out powder on the trails.  My mountain at home is redic, they rope of or groom a 3 foot wall of snow in front of all resort boundries and trees, and they go crazy when it snows "oh shit powder, we NEED to groom it out cause everyone hates powder"  annoys me a lot.  But yeah so far togg has a sick park and DEEP pow if you know where to look.
