Ok, believe it or not we are at the half way point of our season. What's on your mind? What can we do (within reason and keeping safety in mind) to keep you interested?

how much is snowboarding

Posted by: Nick Houston - Feb 19, 2010 7:12 PM

ok so I read the remarks and this is what I think you need, add another tubeing hill run and something else for the little kids to do, mabye make the sunkid lift track go down the little hill. so that when the little kids and others come out of the lodge can get up the hill with out taking off the ski. think family that includes all ages.

Just redo the terrian side cause its all icey and and the rails need to be waxed and make more snow for the beginners so they get better and PUT BOXS WARE WE PUT OUR SNOWBOARDS AND SKIES INSTEAD OF RIDING THE SNOWBOARD AND SKIES HOLDERS LIKE AT THE END OF JJS WAYS PUT BOXS THEIR THAT WOULD BE TIGHT

We have rebuilt the the east jump face and built another, smaller jump to the west.

I'd like to see an ungroomed run. Maybe that isn't possible considering how much natural snow we do not get, but The Long Way Home and the Falls could be left ungroomed and/or develop some small moguls to run through there. Something to break up the face of the mountain, and provide some different kinds of snow to ride. Even after a decent snow shower, it's guaranteed the next day that it will all be groomed in.

dewie is right, the kicker needs to be a bit bigger and a little flatter instead of such the big angle. .lets at least make this last couple of months a good one with the jump nice. someone should really get on it right away, instead of reading these comments and just thinking about how cool it would be.

i think that we need to make the jump that we have now..closer to the landing like broski said the landing is perfect. ..just bring the kicker in closer and mabye dont angle it up as much as it already is make it a little more flat and it will be perfect!

I think we need to divide tha bear up, let the two-ee's have the right side to do there slalom and what ever they feel like. Give the left side to the snowboarders to build a nice park for everyone, except two-ees, to ride and enjoy. That would be plenty of room to have many jumps and rails for all ranges of expertise. And its a block of ice, your gonna get hurt either way if you fall! Reporting Live. . . . . . . Tom Brokeoff

the jump that is up is good, but maybe pull in the actual jump closer, not a ton, but just a bit. the landing is the best it will ever get right now. good job with that.

Posted by: broski - Jan 26, 2009 6:19 PM

I think that the landing is plenty wide and that the jump is to big, we always cater to the 12 or so people that can hit it and make it but we are a beginner area and we should focus on making the kids better with what we have and not trying to make a killer jump that only the few can ride. In my opinion we could have 2 jumps but we would have to give up a rail so that we have room. If that is not the case we all should comprimise on the size of the jump or make more then one hit. Either way I think that we need to down size the jump or give the little guys something to ride.

Id like to see the flat rail make a return

Posted by: Dan - Jan 25, 2009 11:47 AM

We'll make more snow to build another jump (smaller), how wide would you like the big jump?

Posted by: dan - Jan 23, 2009 6:43 PM

It would be sweet if they made another smaller jump... like a ten footer or smaller for beginners.

Posted by: Josh - Jan 23, 2009 8:40 AM

the way the terrain has been setup is always a plus but the booter could always be better, especially the landing, in my mind make it wider so that if one of us would like to huck a nice floating 5, we could actually land on the landing, instead of off to the side. Other than that, it is always been fun.
