Snow Valley

Looks promising! More trails the better says I. Would be awesome if they took a page from trails like Evolution in Galbraith, Banzai DH (technically a green trail but ludicrously fun) at Black Rock in Oregon, and many of the Whistler Blue trails. Integrating easily rollable progressive jumps with non DJ lips and drops with diving boards if ladder or rollable backside if rock drops are great ways to really broaden bandwidth for multiple skill levels. Some of the ladder drops with diving board run outs at Banzai were like 7-9 feet if you hit the whole thing, or just an easy roll down if not, or anything in between. Dirt stepdowns without prominent knuckles are a nice equivalent of wood is too expensive....

Skypark is the closest answer to this. Snow Valley looks like it will be more natural terrain for now. May develop differently in the future, but I wouldn't expect anything close to Whistler.
 
Too late!

Just got an email from them. Looks like they are gonna to do some enticing promo deals soon. Trying to capture the people headed to Snow Summit for the weekend. Staying open later on Fri. Also if you visited another park in the area, bring that ticket to them within 2 weeks and receive a very discounted rate. Check out there FB page for details which will be coming soon.
They received rain up there and we're able to do substantial work to the trails. There are 2 trails open at this time. They also have a small jump line and a dual slalom course.

I LOVE this avatar! Pretty much my spirit animal! I was away in the PNW (the lesser Vancouver) for the last couple years and just recently made plans to come back to Redlands.
