aftons bottom jump is pretty damn big. probably the biggest public jump in the cities.

yeah its a little over 40ft to the knuckle. imo one of the best jumps afton has ever made, assuming you can get the speed for it
 
haha i was gonna say.. i've seen a lot of afton jumps and that one doesn't look any different. looks like you'd never be more than 3 feet off the ground at any point..

go to afton for the rails. always fun :)
 
It's not.....awfull. It does have more pop then the picture shows. However, you can really only hit it on select days when the snow is softer and you can get enough speed. So yea, come one come all....for the rails :)
 
I was there once. klaym.

Powder ridge has a tabletop that nobody has hit, the approach was a near-perfect quarterpipe, followed by 35-40 feet of flat hard death, and then a super steep, 15 foot long landing (horizontal measurement... pry 10 feet). it sucks. here let me draw it for you with text:

)TTTTT\

That is almost an exact side view. I impress myself. plus the whole thing is like 8 feet wide, the entire length of it. they might cut it down and make some rollers though so i dunno
 
buck hill has the worst snow quality ive ever seen. it's like they dont even groom it, it's a sheet of ice. airbag is fun though
 
had fun at Sunburst today. Is it just me or could they make the setup soooo much better. It looked like they had tons of good rails down by the shed but they decide to put up a bunch of 6ft long boxes and mini rails 3" of the ground. The down and the down flat rails were good though.
 
just got done skiing granite tonight. so many good rails, except there was way too many gapers cutting people in the park, there was a lot of ruts, and it was very icy. other than that, it was really fun!
 
Either they made this smaller or the pic makes it look way bigger than it is. Regardless got 9s and almost a 10 on it today
 
Got up to Giant's Ridge for sunday and monday. They moved their park to a different run from last year and its even more fun than ever. Never been disappointed their
 
just as you think hyland is getting better, they blow it. pencil gone, red rail gone, small park kicker is basically an aerials jump w a flat landing, mailbox gone, dfd gone and that perfectly set up up/down gone.

the new way they set up the burrito could've been cool but they failed. the black cannon tube is set up pretty cool but that thing is so weird to slide. flat down looks fun but like usual the lip is 18" wide, too small and 2 ft from the rail. the new "flat/down" box is pretty nice though.

heading to granite peak saturday, place looks so legit.
 
as far as i'm concerned, granite peak is on the same level as keystone and breck, just much smaller. everyone should try and get out there if possible.
