concrete on snow progress update
Today we started final assembly of the form work on the hill. We should be finished Monday and ready to pour concrete!
Looking up Rail Alley at ...???(we don't actually have a name for this yet!)
Side view into the soon to be pyramid
Filling the interior form with dirt.
About half way done with remesh/rebar work.
It will not be long now! Just a little more rebar/remesh work and then the exterior form for the pyramid can go into place and then we can pour the concrete.

Concrete on Snow
That's right! Dave and Eric are out on the hill prepping for Boreal's newest feature. A 5' tall, 16' long, concrete skate-style feature.
There are going to be so many options, it is going to be ridiculous.

Summer Project Update
Work continues at the top unload area of the new Castle Peak Quad
Final grading isn't too far off.
Looking down at where the top terminal will be set and 4 of the 16 new fan guns that will provide coverage for the new lift.
Hummmmm....could these fans be for the superpipe?
In total there will be 25 new fully automatic fans to provide coverage in the mountain core of the Accelerator and Castle Peak Quads including the Beginner areas, Prospector and Race Arena trails as well as the Superpipe, Night Park, Accelerator jump line(??say what??) and Kidz X park.

Monterey This Weekend
I was down in Monterey this weekend for the Red Bull Grand Prix Moto races. It was pretty sweet. I hung out and had a beer with Jason Lee, chatting about how sweet Boreal is. He is a big fan from back in the day.
The guy in the back-right with the flannel on is Jason Lee.
