How is 7 springs park?

5 small rails in santa's beard park, 20 foot flat rail, picnic table, c-box, 2 table tops, and a super pipe in the big park. Giant Steps park still not open.
 
all things considered it isnt that bad. conditions change daily though depending on how warm it is. it should get a little colder this week and than warm up on the weekend so the park an pipe should be pretty soft, which i like. i dont know if they will ever open giant steps.
 
to say the least it is better than last year. There only problem is that the park crew is only like 3 people, but they should get things going soon. The fist jumb isnt bad, it was a good jumb to try some harder tricks like cork 7' and rodeo 5's. The halfpipe is good too, it's just really short.
 
theya re supposedly going to make the superpipe longer. 7 Springs has stepped it up but I'm not sure they have as much as they claim too. They have put too much emphasis on haveing a C-box. And they say "We plan to open this soon!" everyday in their snowreport next to the Giant Steps Park.
 
I talked to park crew yesterday, they have a shit ton more rails, wallride, and plans for some new tables in both Giant Steps and sunset. They have most of the stuff ready, they are just waiting for better snow conditions. Prob. going to strip the parks, blow for like 2 or 3 days, then put all the shit in.
 
i hope they don't strip parks. They should just put some more jibs in big park and then open the giant steps park, and leave the new table for giant steps considering it actually has a decent hill.
 
well they could set up giant steps, and when thats open, then strip the sunset park down, and redo it.
 
ehh my bad, i forgot giant steps isn't lighted yet. So that would limit park skiing to the hessian park at night... and that wouldn't be good.
 
they stripped the big park and flattened the lips on the tables. They've been blowing snow all day and will supposedly have it up and going again on Monday.
 
they are putting the wallride in tonight. they have a hand rail with a stair case that they made outa snow, the c~rail, mail box, 20ft flat rail, and the two table as well as the pipe. no word on when they are opening the gaint steps park. i heard that the two new guys from out west that we got to be the park managers told Dick Barron to fuck off. if thats true then maybe thats why the park has been a little slow on getting it going.
 
I think it's been slow because the weather has been so shitty. They were forming the jumps in Giant steps today and they look massive. The flat bar and the malbox is out and now they jsut habe the 2 tables, wallride, c-box, handrail, picnic table and pipe.
 
straight from the website today:

This is an Advanced Park!! 1 down rail, 1 wall, 1 mail box, 1 "C" rail, 1 flat, 2 table tops, 1 up rail, 2 flat downs, 1 picnic table...icy conditions!

Giant Steps Terrain Park

I was up there yesterday and the park that swings down next to the super pipe was looking pretty sick...

it was a powder day yesterday though...too slow for jumping and too rare to waste on the park.
 
yeah the 11 inches def. helped. the snowreport boasts a lot of new stuff, if anyone has been there please post about it

looks pretty good, hopefully it wont rain this weekend
 
Everything is the same in the pics excpet there is a flat box instead of the spine after the C boxes. They took out the flat down at the top beside the up rail, but otherwise its almost the same.
