TERRAIN PARK UPDATE
March 31, 2011

So tyro and the features below the half pipe are gone, but N.Slope and 5th ave are still prime and ready to be shred. Its been a long and great winter, i would like to thank Kurt and all of the park rangers for their season of hardwork! This sunday at 4pm will be last chair and the last time some of us will be riding for the season but its time to relax, maybe hit up the mini ramp this summer at Darkside and wait for the Memorial Day Weekend when like always Stowe Mountain Resort will host the "Last Trick Rail Jam." But for now enjoy the mountain, maybe get some friends together and tailgate, and enjoy the rest of the season!

Here's the latest Triple Chair Thursday Video......

A Day in the Life Video of Stowe's Halfpipe & Terrain Parks!

At Stowe Mountain Resort, our two mountains are naturally divided into six distinct areas that each provide a unique atmosphere for skiers and riders.

One of the six is the Mansfield Triple. This ranks highest with young skiers and riders thanks to two freestyle terrain parks, a halfpipe and other freestyle treats.

Terrain Parks Director, Kurt Crouse gives an insider view to what we have to offer!

Our Zaugg Cut Halfpipe (featured above) with 18' walls and 400' in length is located on Lower Standard on Mt. Mansfield. Below the pipe and new this season we will be adding a Small to Medium Terrain Park including new boxes and a rail to provide a better stepping stone for progression between our Midway Small Park and North Slope Med Park.

Fifth Ave (featured above) has grown roots and will continue to be an ever evolving Rail Garden right off the top of the Mountain Triple to provide a top to bottom freestyle experience off this lift.

North Slope: In the sprit to grow and advance our most popular Medium Park, we will be switching sides of the trail below Crossover, this will allow us to stretch the park down the hill further to allow for more rail setups while still providing our signature 3 jump line as well as a little bonus area for more rails under the lift connecting it to Lower Lord in route to the base of the Mountain Triple lift.

Tyro is our Largest Park in relation to all of our other Park offerings, we will add a new rail or two and also provide respectable “Air Time” jump features.

Midway is our Small entry level Terrain Park for anyone looking to easy style it by starting small and working their way up to our other Parks, we will be adding a new box or two for this season.

PRIOR to using Freestyle Terrain, you are responsible for familiarizing yourself with Freestyle Terrain and obeying all instructions, warnings and signs.Freestyle skills require maintaining control on the ground, and in the air.
