    Alta Trial Park?

    What do all you Utards think of this park business at Alta? I haven't got a chance to check it out yet, i was kinda wondering what the deal with it is. I think its a good idea if Alta is willing to put some effort and money behind it and do a good job. I doubt that it will ruin the "Alta vibe" I was just kinda curious as to what everybody thought.

    ^^^^I highly doubt that will happen. Especially with park city in the area.
    It would be nice for those season pass holders for times when it hasnt snowed in forever. Then there is a little more reason to go up.

    MFPow,

    Did you read that somewhere or just hear word of it??

    It's been in the rumor mill for a few years now. However, so far, I have not seen any concrete evidence anywhere.

    Well, if it was a smart student they'd buy a separate student pass at each resort and save like $400 over a dual pass.

    Somebody at lifts said it was gonna happen a few months ago when they were building big rollers off of Sunnyside for a mini/micro park, but there's been 0 progress since then. I would have liked it today, I went running instead of skiing...

    OK got it

    On April 21 Snowbird will be holding the first annual (if it goes well) in-spring Bike Board Jib Jam. I was told it is an event that invites the best mt bike freeriders in the world to compete on a course designed in the Gad valley. the course will run through cliffbands with hits, rails and all kinds of crazy Red Bull shit going on!
    keep checking the bird site it should have alot more info soon

    Won't there be a ton of snow in Gad Valley then? Will they be biking on snow? I'm confused.

    I've read that it will be on snow. Thinking about studded tires for the DH rig....
