Reviews & Tips (2)

I went on a Sunday night and it was packed. Lift lines were decent but the hill was overly crowded especially in the terrain parks. Every time I lined up for a jump a little kid or someone would cut me off or just stop on the landing. I even saw a class in the terrain park doing pizzas over all the hits. The park is not fenced in and people don't have any consideration when it comes to others. 95% of the people in the terrain park just pizza over the jumps, get zero air, and still bust there ass.

While it is smaller than bristol, it has a great family feel and it does offer a lot. If you don't do pipe you won't know the difference. It's such a great place and everyone is always friendly and polite, something you don't get with the bigger resorts in the area. Definite a mountain to go to.
