Open Triple Air Contest - hosted March 25-27   Alpine's Freeride Team shredding! New Park Plans!We were talking with Jonahs, our park designer and manager, and he convinced us that incorporating features into the mountain's natural topography is a perfect, clear fit. "Since the majority of our skiers and riders spend as much of their time exploring all 2400 acres as they do the parks; and in the way a guest can find steeps, moguls, chutes,or spines anywhere on the mountain, we want guests to be able to try a park feature on other areas of the mountain," he said. Check out the preseason work.Everyone here including our general manager Kent Hoopingarner is excited about the change. He said, "the new park plan is appealing in that our park designer and staff can build terrain features which blend with the natural banks, rollers, and mountain layout. This type of design is certainly a growing trend in the industry; but it is a true fit for Alpine Meadows, everyone will enjoy every part of the mountain."So look forward to additional park features scattered throughout portions of Kangaroo, Boomerang, and Tiegel trails (via Kangaroo double, Roundhouse high speed quad, and Hot Wheels triple chairs); as well as lower Palisades, Terry's Return and Loop Road (via Summit Six high speed six passenger chair and Alpine Bowl double chair). "You will be able to ski one of the best mountains, blast jumps, and slide rails in the same run," added Jonahs, who incidentally, enjoys the off piste on Alpine's High Traverse as much as he enjoys a flawless step-down in the Shreadows advanced park. The Shreadows Vid Latest News from the Park Crew     Thu, 02 Sep 2010 21:56:36 +0100 en_145_66_0 http://www.skialpine.com/ski-terrain-park/ Thanks for a great season!
