Not sure what the plan for PB is now, just trying to get a ton of snow in there to work with for some jumps. I'm pretty sure the jump line is still in the plans but now it's just a matter of when we get enough snow.
The groomer is in the Meadows at the moment pushing snow around to get ready to set up some new stuff. Yesterday it was open with some really fun features set up, including the Roots Rideshop box.
I REALLY wish we could at least keep a few small features out at all times somewhere, even it it isn't in the designated 'parks' just to keep people happy. I'd almost go out and dig them in myself if I didn't have to report back to ski school every hour lol.
For the most part we've had decent park set-ups considering the amount of snow we've had, but I was hoping it would be more consistent this year.
This weekend we should have some really good stuff out though. I'll update more as I hear what's going on.
Why are they so dead set on a jump line? They don't have enough snow for that and they won't based on the forecast. I just wish they would have what they usually do...a jump or two in PB with some rails and boxes added in a manner that makes for a good flow. I freakin hate Meadows.

Yeah there's plenty of snow on PB to set up a few rails and boxes, and have that big mound at the bottom set up as a kicker with a big side and little side. Meadows is really flat, but if it's set up right you can get a good flow through there with some small features. Should have something decent set up tomorrow.

PB is a unique place to set up a park compared to other resorts in the immediate area. Beech doesn't need to try be like app in a little area like meadows.

Here's a photo update for Meadows. The groomer has been working on PB all day setting in some larger features and getting a jump or two ready. Tomorrow should be awesome if the rain holds off.
Tree hip still holding up well.
