Our terrain park will have 2 flat 10′ beginner rails as well as a 20′ intermediate round rail.

We will use this information to expand on our design, possibly incorporating an additional run for a new more advanced park in the future. Our goal this year and into the future is to provide a safe, fun and exciting area for snowboarders and skiers to test and expand their freestyle skills. We hope to give all of our park riders a positive experience while at Treetops and plan to expand our park to best meet the needs of our customers each year.

A guest seating area in the Warming Hut is located at the base of the slopes where parents have a clear view of their children learning to ski.
