Terrain Park/Freestyle Terrain

To see what is currently open, check out the snow conditions report, or head on up to the park!

The Terrain Park will close one hour before the mountain closes each day. Hours may vary depending on snowfall and conditions. The parks must be groomed manually after every snowstorm and will be completed as quickly as conditions allow. Please call ahead to see if we are open after inclement weather.

Think you are ready for the park? Here is a list of tasks/drills you should be able to accomplish before riding in the park, to ensure safety:

  • Straight run forward and switch comfortably
  • Jump up and down in one place while remaining balanced
  • Perform an "Ollie" and "Nollie" while remaining balanced
  • Make foot to foot movements such as "duck-walk" on a board or gentle skating on skis.
  • Make toe to heel adjustments such as small tip/tail presses on skis or quick edge changes standing in one place or moving slow on a flat slope on a snowboard.
  • Align the body perpendicular to the slope
  • Flex and extend the body through a full range of motion
  • Surface spin while maintaining the center of mass over the middle of the skis or snowboard and not catch an edge
  • Create and maintain a carved track in the snow (single, skinny line)
  • Control speed through turn shape, brushing, scrubbing off speed and edging
  • Control basic rotary movements and maintain alignment without twisting tension or rotary force (upper and lower body separation)
  • Glide with enough speed to roll over small bumps and knolls
  • "Ollie" and "Nollie" while sliding at varying speeds
  • Ride with confidence, accuracy and adaptability
