boardin_nerd Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 true that. with some fine tuning the new setup is gonna be legit. most deffinitly.. the only complaint i get is the landing get cut out ALOT .. and it seems like they dotn get fixed rlly at all.. but i rlly like bear creeks park!

HouseMuzik Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 We've gone over this a million times, temp. isn't the problem getting non-season pass holders is. If the $$$ is there they will stay open. Believe me.. if its cold and the snow is decent.. people will come no matter when it is. May they have to go back to $25 extended day tix again? maybe. But from what I heard.. Bear Creek financially is doing way better than they expected. Taking just season pass holders.. even before the season they were already up 20%. Money is not a problem with Bear Creek. Neither is crowds. There was a decent crowd tonight for it being 0F on the slopes. Quote
burton71 Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 (edited) Believe me.. if its cold and the snow is decent.. people will come no matter when it is.No they don't. Crowds drop off towards the end of March every year no matter how much snow the mountains have. Edited January 17, 2009 by burton71 Quote
Mixilplix Posted January 17, 2009 Report Posted January 17, 2009 Most people in this area don't have the spring skiing mentality..After March(and sometimes before that) they don't even think about skiing or riding. Quote
HouseMuzik Posted February 12, 2009 Report Posted February 12, 2009 So... who wants to take bets on what the real base of Bear Creek is after all this melt and rain. Everybody knows that the base isnt anywhere close to the 37-83" thats been on the condition report for the past two weeks Quote
JibHonk Posted February 12, 2009 Report Posted February 12, 2009 i think for 83 inches they measured through the knuckle of the blackbear jumps Quote
mollyskeez Posted February 12, 2009 Report Posted February 12, 2009 yeah those are big piles its prolly around 30 in some spots Quote
BC-Mark Posted February 13, 2009 Author Report Posted February 13, 2009 After a mid-winter preview of spring, snowmaking weather returns tonight. We will be making on all trails and should be able to lay down a nice layer or 3" to 4" overnight. The long range shows decent temps through Monday night with a little bit of a warm up Tuesday/Wednesday followed by more cold air. Conditions should be improving each day. Look for some changes in the park this week and, if we get enough snow down, possibly a big new feature in the Tubing Jump Line. Quote
boardin_nerd Posted February 13, 2009 Report Posted February 13, 2009 big new feature huh? Hmmm Quote
Saurus Posted February 13, 2009 Report Posted February 13, 2009 my guess is its ethier going to be a channel gap or a stupid hip so they can try and be like boulder Quote
snowboarddude Posted February 13, 2009 Report Posted February 13, 2009 (edited) channel gap would be sick if it was built right and they just put in a hip so i doubt that i cant wait to see what they build Edited February 13, 2009 by sanchezzz Quote
EAZY-Emuntz Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 maybe a huge quarter pipe at the end???? Quote
toast21602 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 maybe a huge quarter pipe at the end???? 1/4 pipes are soooo much fun if they are built right. i remember a couple years ago at Mount Snow they had a huuuuge one at the bottom of their super pipe. so much fun. Quote

We can only hope that they are gonna make one. They already have one thats pretty fun, but it gets beat up and its a little small. I think that nice quarter pipes are one of the most fun features that a mountain can have Quote
snowboarddude Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 a cannon rail jump like the xgames Quote
method9455 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 a cannon rail jump like the xgames and the dew tour, and blue mountain, those things are the new "random vehicle we put a rail on" fad Quote
sexkitten Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 I can't tell if they are blowing or not from the cams. We should be up at 8:00 tomorrow. See you all then. Quote
JibHonk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 be there at nine. i'll be wearing green n white jacket. black pants and black helmet with green goggles and riding a green and yellow skate banana. i should be over on the other side a lot tomorrow doing the usually spraying noobs but i'm really not an asshole so say hi if you see me. i'll answer to jibhonk or cole or pasr Quote
JibHonk Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 spraying and pole jams hellll yess Quote
Tyler Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 (edited) how bout making that last jump like 55 or 60 feet, that would be nice, although speed would definetly be an issue. a qp could be cool, i just hope they dont do away with the last jump in favor of a channel gap or something Edited February 14, 2009 by Oakley21 Quote

mollyskeez Posted February 14, 2009 Report Posted February 14, 2009 channel gap a huge quarter ???????????? Quote
BC-Mark Posted February 15, 2009 Author Report Posted February 15, 2009 Disappointing weather last night, we didn't get favorable conditions until 4am so the snowmaking team decided to groom out the skim coat of natural snow that fell and call it a night. Tonight looks like far more promising and we anticipate a 10pm startup and 10 full hours of snowmaking. Quote
