I dont know if there will be a jump yet, and how big it will be. We were starting to setup the park today, tomorrow is the first day so we'll see

I think it's a volume thing, the camp would need to be more popular for the prices to go down. Its the first time in 4 years theyre doing it so

Always so jealous when I see this going down from MN. Looks so dope, I feel like one of the only places to do a "leftovers" type snow event and be able to do it for multiple days. Hows the snow looking this year?

Troll did a pretty cool event this spring, but it was Red Bull so I'm guessing invite only.

it's allright, there could be more but they play it safe usually with the setup at the start of the camp, and then the setup gets better as the week goes on.

It had a public session, but it was snowboard only which was a bummer. I got two post season events this year, wild mtn and tyrol basin

this is what it looks like. The setup is pretty fun, and it will change throughout the week. There is the chairlift on the left, you need to take off your skis and walk a little. There is a quarter pipe/hip at the bottom.

That is a bummer. Cool it was open to the public, but not as cool that it was snowboard only. If I want to catch the edge of a wood log and mess myself up that should be up to me. And glad to hear the Midwest is holding it down with a few more post season jams. I should talk to my manager to see if our resort sugarloaf can do something like this for the east coast

Yeah camp is open today they spread the snow as much as they can so i think you can do a top to bottom lap with the chair without taking off your skis. I'm not there yet but I'll be there around 10am
