This is a Email I just got from them.
Thank you for your email. I just want to clarify that snowboarders definitely don’t have the park all to themselves. The terrain parks are open to all skiers and riders who have completed the park pass program. I realize that probably most of that demographic is snowboarders but we are most definitely not excluding skiers.
Our terrain park patrons (both snowboarders and free skiers) are growing at such a rate that our current terrain park acreage simply was not enough. Our beginner terrain is also located at Vernon, of which the majority is snowboarders, and when you combine terrain park crowds with beginners, it’s not a great guest situation. Much of the expert terrain at Vernon was crossing over beginner terrain. With this change, we will have four trails that are again open to intermediate skiers and riders. The skiers and riders who are not into terrain parks will be able to enjoy Vernon and Granite peaks much more. I think that changes at South will make Vernon and Granite a more enjoyable place for intermediate and expert skiers and snowboarders alike.
