Alpine Meadows To Open Mile-Long Terrain Park

Alpine Meadows To Open Mile-Long Terrain Park

Published : 04-Oct-2012 02:43



A recent partnership between Alpine Meadows in California and Snow Park Technologies means skiers and riders can look forward to continued terrain park improvements and what the Tahoe resort describes as, "an enhanced park experience" throughout the winter season. Snow Park Technologies is renowned in the terrain park business with 15 years of experience designing parks for major resorts and events nationwide including the Winter X Games.

Snow Park Technologies will expand the medium and large parks, which combined parks offer an entire mile-long park run, the longest in the Tahoe region.

Also brand new this year, there will be a beginner progression park on Subway where lessons will be available. Guests eating out on the sundeck can enjoy the view of skiers and riders testing out their skills at a new base area jib arena. New jibs will be added this season, including four new beginner boxes, two intermediate boxes and four new snowmaking pipe jibs, increasing the park's fleet to more than 60 jib features.
