If you're trying out the park for the first time or are not familiar with it, start practicing with these items!
This park can be used by hiking up.
Terrain play freeride park
This is a new type of Snow Park where you can freely enjoy side hips, waves, banks and other features that make use of the terrain. There are endless ways to play! Enjoy freestyle riding on Chairlift.
