2006-2007 Season

   Another season of some improvements that are obvious, others not so much, and some that will be completed later.
   One of the most noticeable is the re-grading and re-surfacing of the switch-backs on Green Canyon Road. Bannock County Road & Bridge took a lot of the grade out of the corners. They utilized material from our lower parking lots for the project which in turn has given us more parking.
   The Aspen lift is undergoing a major renovation. Eventually (hopefully next summer) this lift will be converted into a triple lift with state of the art operation to better suit the beginner. This year the loading area was redesigned and a new cable was installed. All the major components for the upgrade have been purchased, but unfortunately some of them were delayed in delivery until it was too late to complete the upgrade.
   A new ticket scanning system should be in place by opening day. This will speed up lift lines and help us pinpoint future lift related needs.
   A new, specialized snowmobile and passenger sled will be available to transport the littlest skiers to lesson sites. Several new Jr. trails were developed by the First Timer run especially for the younger enthusiasts.
   Some new box slides are on their way to the terrain parks - and new beginner terrain park features on the Aspen.  

 
2005-2006 Season

More brush and rocks have been cleared.
Extensive preventative maintenance.
This summer has been one consisting of many behind-the-scenes improvements.  Wiring and underground pipe for snowmaking, electrical switch gear for night lighting, minor lift modifications, etc. While these upgrades will probably not be evident to casual observation, the lack of them would be readily apparent.

With the extension of the Skyline Lift, the vertical footage has increased to 2,200 vertical feet.
The Skyline Lift has been converted to a Triple Chair, greatly increasing lift capacity.
Speed has been increased too.  It will take the same time to get to the new, higher summit as it took to get to the top last year.
