Powderline to boardslide to powderline!

Man 'O Man!
The snow is light, fluffy and deep!
We have a lot to report today, but basically, if you're worried about what the terrain park looks like on a day when the mountain has been dumped on with more than 8", in my humble opinion, you need to get your priorities straight!  One pass has been made up the main by the Snow Cat and the rest is light-as-air-freshie-fresh!

As the terrain park itself sits, we're still looking at the same lineup of 7 features however with the fresh dumping, more park along with more mountain should be up and running by the weekend!

  We have also started building a Junior Grom Park.  We're sick of hearing "...oh, he's only 4, he can't snowboard..." because it's a complete load of garbage.  With all the research and development going into kids snowboard lineups over the last couple years, there is no reason why the kids can't shred their own little park too!  What we have done is very simple.  The park is built beside the villas on the lodge side in front of the pool.  The ground is basically flat with a slight grade and everything is a ride-on feature.  Parents are welcome to come out and work with their kids without having to take a lift, a sled or walk up the mountain.  Because it's a flat area, parents and/or instructors can push or pull kids over the obstacles. Right now we have a dance floor, a table-top and a log-jib.  We're working on putting in tires and PVC pipes.

  This area is free, however still requires a POMA pass.
