Backyard jump

I recently just got around 2 feet of snow dumped into my backyard, so I was wondering if anyone has made an actual jump, like maybe 20-25 feet? I have a lot of flat room and I could get towed in by way of snowmobile. Any ideas?

My parents have an old piece of shit XC groomer in the woods from the late 60's, I've contemplated fixing it and plowing stuff around but don't really have the time to fix it.

If you have the time, you should try it op. Would definitely by fun.

i had about a 25 ft gap jump, snowmobile tow in style a few months ago. just stack up a shit load of snow, carve a wedge out of it, and then do some for the landing if it's not already sloped.

You'd tow yourself into the jump on a snowmobile. Triston.

Here's the one I built this winter at my farm, it was a lot of snow. That's my dad standing on top and he's 5'10"

If your wondering how to build it get recycling bins(the colored ones that are rectangles, also it cant be dirty). Then pack snow in them and it makes perfect blocks.

haha, when they are dirty the snow does not slide out of them very well.
