The terrain park at Revelstoke Mountain Resort lies about a third of the way up the Stoke chair.
Every stomp and bail and Jerry yardsale is right there in the public eye.
No days off, no slacking.
Seems crazy, but theyre dedicated to the craft.
Fluorescent jackets weaving from feature to feature like clockwork.
Planks off, head down, shaping.
If you holler theyll wave back then say what up next time through the gate.
Mostly though, the features have stayed the same.
That is, until now.
Three snowcats, winching and snarling diesel, were hard at work flattening and reshaping.
Theres a fourth jump in the works, and the outlines of some interesting new features.
This observer is hoping for some funky flavour, so well see about that.
You should come down and check it out.

PM: 97% has been super positive.
MZ: For the most part we’ve received nothing but positive feedback !
Shout outs from the chair, local park rats chillin daily and mini rippers progressing.
Everyone else has been patiently waiting for a decent terrain Park for years, and we haven’t dissapointed.
We still get people come through just to showcase their carves.
