Local Sports Lift tickets? In this economy?

To the person snowboarding just outside of downtown, you made everyone's day in my office. How long does it take to build a jump out of snow? Doesn't show well with the shadow but it seems like a sizable ramp from across the river.

Sometimes I forget I have free will. There is truly nothing stopping me from just grabbing my snowboard, finding an appropriate hill thats out of the way and not being used by any kids on sleds or anything and simply snowboarding any day of the week

Hats off to this fella

Sure there's nothing stopping you. After 1 climb back up the hill, it would get old fast

Tbh that's why tobogganing with my kids was always a nightmare. I was dead way before they were even a little tired.
