Hey guys looks like im moving to chicago.  Please tell me theres a decent rail park within an hour of the city.  I dont plan on sticking around during weekends in the winter but i need a place to get some laps in a couple days per week after work. Any advice appreciated

The Rock in Franklin, WI. Gonna be a bomb ass park this year, millions put into the complex over the last year. Brand new rail packages, state of the art snow making equipment, and souper noice Piston Bully cat. Gonna have jumpline, slopestyle course, and railyards.

Plenty of Options.

Wilmot Mountain

Grand Geneva (Mountain Top)

Alpine Valley

The Rock.
which should be pretty amazing this winter they put tons of money in to the place.

Sunburst Ski Area

Little Switzerland

All of these places are within a reasonable drive.

Everyone is going to have there opinion and likes and hates and bullshit about these places. I would say check them out and form your own opinion. There all fun they all offer something different.
