I was there all day today 10-close. Conditions were pretty good. Very minimal ice patches. The park has no new features which is depressing. Zero boxes, there are 2 20 foot rails and one is a bit sketchy around the sides so if you come off the rail to a side it could be ugly.
The jump line is still fun but a bit rutted up and the landings are icey. So if you doing spins make sure you have them on lock. One run has a bunch of small rollers and they aren't much fun.
Minimal crowds even on this holiday weekend so that is good.
All-in-all still worth riding there. Make the best of it and enjoy. I might be there tomorrow morning for a few hours. I'm pretty spent from today so we'll see.
