Probably works better if you can spell the shop name....

Sib last year at Elk we brought up almost all of our fencing, so they had the whole trail fenced (double fencing in some places). That will probably work for our race, however probably won't work to fence it for practice. Also this year Elk has a races the same day we do, so they aren't gonna be able to let us borrow there fences....Ohh well, we shall see...

My guess would be email him and ask...Then again I would probably die, after i went down the hill, though the parking lot, and hit a car....

Sibby, Last year they only had about 4 people doing course work...And 3 of them were J1/2s (one parent). I know for the most part that day I was running up and down with a drill/key/gates/other stuff.....Also I know there were a few people from over at Ski school (people incharge-ish) that were helping with the race, and even a few rangers I think for umm 'insurance' reasons, they don't want to be driving a) non empolyees around on snowmobiles and driving a snowmobile on a trail with people on it any more that they have to. Lets see what else...Training on Cliffy...Although I think it is pretty stupid reason, I will tell you why we can't train on it much this year...Since it is a homologated race trail, I guess there was a new rule by USSA this year that all trails that are going to host a USSA GS race need to be completely fenced, top to bottom, with FIS approved B netting. Right now we have 7 roles of it, we will need about 22 to cover Cliffy for our race. Where we are going to get it, I don't know....But I was told that you also need that amount of fencing now to train on it, since it is a 'race trail'. Rocket on the other hand, which isn't approved for racing only needs fencing where you need it (for safety reason), which makes that a lot easier to train on. So why doesn't CB just buy some FIS B netting and cover Cliffy with it (would be safer for the public, wouldn't it be?) What I was told by the lawyers in the room is: If someone hits a tree, its a natural obstical, and sucks to be them if they die hitting it, however if someone hits fencing on the side of a trail, which is now a 'man made obstical' it is a lot easier for them to sue the mountain....Even if they end up breaking a leg, insted of killing themselves on a tree. Until someone actully hits a tree (then CB has prior knowledge that that secion of trail 'might' be dangrous, they will not put up fencing. Kinda really stupid, I know... Anyway the fencing takes about 1.5 hrs to put up, and probably 1.5 hrs to take down (just a guess) with a resonable amount of people helping. So unless we could get the trail for 1/2 a day or so (which might be possible once or twice, and Gus is working on that now) If we can't get cliffy at all, then we will keep practicing on Rocket in the morning, which isn't bad, but it kinda sucks if we can't practice on our own race hill...Kinda ruins the point of having it at your mountain.

Infact they all went up together last weekend....in one (not so small) car

Grass skiing ????

Now they don't let people smoke...The food is poor everywhere...I never thought it was very cold....And there were less people than the other places.

Why aren't there any picture of it....?

My guess would be about 30 degrees, depending on where the piles of snow have been blown...

At elk atleast on the trail maps it says that there race trail may be closed because of races. They were going after me a little this summer I think...I saw the file...Only about 50 papers in it about me

It is going to be (if it happens) the stevenson lift...and just get the 4 trails...

Cameltop can get busy....If you go to the top of it (there is a stairway to the right after you walk into the lodge part of it...go up there...Probably about 8 tables, and you can usually get one. Then as skierboi said, there is the basement too, which is usually pretty empty.

Being that whole lodge was pretty much filled on all the other race days, I don't think one room would be enough. And I know they wouldn't want to move it to there main lodge or anything....Ohh well hopefully the whole thing falls threw anyway.

I never really liked the glen lodge... I was always a fan of the top section of cameltop. Ohh no, whats going to happen when the race team needs space for race registration...where are all the people going to park their cars now?

Rob, before you go on, people should probably know that the current (and I say that because that is how it stands now) program is for people who want to ski race. All the coaches have coached racing, and I don't believe any of them have a backround in freestyle. So steve (who I thought was joining the dev team, anyway...) can focus on whatever he wants...Some people focus on USSA races, some try to get into FIS races(not too many ), some want to just have fun skiing with other people, some want better form (probably where steve will fall) and some..err most don't know what they want, and just want to ski. Anyway just saying that until there is (if ever) a freestyle team at CB, most park rats aren't gonna be too happy there
