Jumps have finally arrived at Bolton Valley. Last Wednesday we finished building the terrain park skiers left of the Butterscotch park. It's a three hit slopestyle course and it flows perfectly. Here is an edit of shredders Gabe Cohn and Jeremy Hulsey taking laps through the new park.<br />

Night Riders Mystery Event:<br /> <br />
Bolton Valley is hosting a mock Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics on Jan 29th.
Skiers and riders will assemble in teams of three to represent their
flag in the group slopestyle event. The slopestyle course will be loca<span class="text_exposed_show">ted skiers left of the Butterscotch park<br /> <br />
Age and gender groups are out this week. Each team will be judged on
their unity, creativity, and ability. Skiers and snowboarders are
encouraged to team up, but this is not mandatory. Mixing gender and age
category within your group is also encouraged.<br /> <br /> Night rider
points will be allocated to the group winners. I.E. each member of the
first place team will receive 5 points within their age category towards
night rider finals.<br /> <br /> Countries are appointed on a first come
first serve basis. Have your team captain message Shred Bolton to secure
your flag. If you cannot create a team by the 29th we will organize you
into groups before the event.<br /> <br /> Join the event at <a href="http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FBVWNRS&h=4AQFfrnxv&enc=AZPb0WnTmHi46JqSAvqLx6Mj9SGPMJGg3QIIB-utU-A2NDwHv6wDjL61IxZ_VLpsfn0Iiaw4oUsuWH5mLt9pPvr5sb7A6bjmpT9It68-8_Qcw568urKpH5pIbAT4xdl7bnDU1jZh1UBL9RHfAnyWZDVp&s=1" rel="nofollow nofollow" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/BVWNRS</a><br /> <br />
For those of you who reserve a flag ahead of time, dressing to
represent your country will earn you some love from the judges. (please
be respectful in how you portray the country you choose)<br /> <br /> The
team challenge is a long standing tradition at Bolton Valley. Creativity
and group unity stand above all else. Do you have what it takes to be
an Olympian?</span></div>

<br />
These last few days have gone by like a blur. On Sunday <a href="https://www.facebook.com/shredbolton" target="_blank">Shred Bolton</a> hosted the Tell A Friend Tour presented by <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Andy-Parry/164910300239857" target="_blank">Andy Parry</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Skirack" target="_blank">SKIRACK</a>, and <a href="https://www.facebook.com/lineskis" target="_blank">Line Skis</a>. At the event we had something like eight pro skiers in The Jungle destroying every feature in sight. Jason Levinthal even showed up to demo his <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Jskiing" target="_blank">J Skis</a>.<br />

It was awesome watching the pros ride with Bolton Valley locals. Andy Perry spent most of the time teaching kids how to be a wizard just like him and it worked! We were all impressed when everyone started getting 50-50s on the flat rail. <br />

Holy smokes this week was packed with fun! Last night (Jan 15th) we kicked of this years <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/271234836365310/" target="_blank">Wednesday Night Rider Series</a>. It could not have been more fun. We had over 40 contestants show up to shred in The Jungle and it got crazy. OG Bolton photographer <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mike.mcdonald.161214?fref=ts" target="_blank">Mike McDonald</a> was here taking pictures so stay tuned on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/shredbolton" target="_blank">Shred Bolton</a> to check them out.<br />
<br />
Here are the <a href="http://www.boltonvalley.com/upload/media/Nightly%20Results%20for%20Prizes%20and%20Web%201-15-14_1.pdf" target="_blank">results</a> and <a href="http://www.boltonvalley.com/upload/media/Points%20Talley%20Sheet%20after1-15-14.pdf" target="_blank">point standings </a>for the series. <br />
<br />
Next Night Rider event is in two weeks on Jan 29th. Mother Nature has pretty much eliminated the chance of having a slope style course up by that time so we are switching the 29th to the Mystery Event. <br />
<br />
<br />
We are so thankful for the love and support you have given us this season. Keep shredding and pray for snow. <br />

We are stoked with how the season has progressed so far. It's awesome to see how you have contributed to make the park as fun as possible. If you have ideas you haven't told us, the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/shredbolton" target="_blank">Shred Bolton</a> Facebook page is a great platform to express your ideas.<br />
<br />
Any input you provide is seriously considered. Shredder Max Ryan gave us an idea for a flat rail which we liked so we put it in the next day.<br />

Terrain Park Managers, Anthony Staples and I (Jeremy Hulsey) are working hard to unveil a fresh new park experience for you, the Bolton shredders. Throughout the season we will be dedicated to providing parks for all levels of skiing and riding. Whether you're ready to try your first 50-50 on the progression box or you're game for any feature we throw at you. We will make sure the park is primed and ready.<br /><br />We've had a rough start with some unseasonably wet weather, but last night we blew a little more snow, so The Jungle will be on point and ready to be explored by Christmas. Today snow crew has focused efforts to the Butterskotch park to make some jumps and a next level slopestyle course.<br /><br />
Looking forward:<br />
<br />
If you accidentally bought a pass to another mountain, don't stress, we will have plenty of events and programs for you to come try out our parks.<br />
<br />
Wednesday Night Rider Series - This year we are bringing this competitions back to it's OG days. We are still working out the details, but be ready for bigger prizes, better setups, and tons of fun! <br />
<br />
Bolton Valley Edits -Bolton is looking to work with skiers, riders, filmers and photographers to properly represent our terrain parks. If you and your crew are looking to film here let us know! <br />
<br />
Park Clinics - Days when the park crew is ready to teach park newbies a thing or two about jumping and sliding down stuff. <br />
<br />
Much Much More - We are brainstorming non stop to make sure Bolton is as epic as possible this season. If you have any ideas, comments, or questions, feel free to post on our Facebook page @ <a href="https://www.facebook.com/shredbolton" target="_blank">ShredBolton</a>. In the mean time come shred with us and Stay tuned for photos and videos of our setup in the Jungle.<br />
<br />
Yours Truly,<br />

Yeah, so we had best intentions of getting the Jungle Jib open this weekend. But the unusually wet weather, coupled with some freezing rain and a power outage, has delayed the opening of the Jungle Jib. The park crew will work on getting it back together tomorrow in the soft snow. We'll be able to open it up pretty shortly after the temperatures drop on Monday evening. Hang in there, we're as anxious as you to get the park open.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1368472870183329526.post-86460318774222634382013-12-19T09:57:00.001-05:002013-12-19T09:57:10.531-05:00Welcome to the Jungle (Jib)!We've got fun and games. We've got everything you want. And honey, we know the names.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Yes, it's true, parks crews are working on Jungle Jib as I write this, and we hope to have it open either tomorrow (Friday) or Saturday. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Word on the chairlift is that it's going to feature a mixed bag of straight rails, flat boxes of different widths and lengths, as well as a few corrugated pipes/rails. I don't want to spoil any surprises, but I hear there might be an oil drum too, but you'll have to come up and see for yourselves!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Stay tuned to the <a href="http://www.boltonvalley.com/the-mountain/snow-report-and-maps">snow report</a> for official updates, but I fully expect to camp in the park this weekend, take some awesome footage of you all throwing down, and put together our first park edit of the season.</div>

<br />
Thanks to some cold days that helped the snow makers get ahead of schedule, Opening Day has been bumped up a day and we'll open for the season on Friday, December 13th! There's some snow in the forecast for this weekend as well, so hopefully that will pan out.<br />
<br />
We can't anticipate what future conditions might allow, but we are making snow on Alta Vista and hope to open it on Saturday. We will not have any terrain park features this weekend but plan to add some next week as snow surfaces allow. The first night of night skiing will be on Wednesday, December 18th.<br />

<span style="font-weight: normal;">Hello, Bolton Valley!</span></h4>
<br />
I'm Mike and I'm the new Snow Reporter for the '13-'14 season. I'm stoked to be here at Bolton and I can't wait to get to know everyone. We're going to be doing some really fun things with the Snow Report this year, so be sure to follow that when we open up next week.
<br />
<br />
Now, trust me when I tell you we're all as excited as you are about getting up on the slopes again, and fortunately, after a bit of a warm spell, we're looking at some colder temps outside today. Overnight drizzles turned into snow early this morning, and we've picked up about an inch or so of the white stuff. It's currently 29 degrees and overcast here at the base, and it looks like we could be seeing some more snow showers starting this evening and on-and-off through Monday night.
<br />
<br />
Our snow makers are also expected to start working their magic again tonight. So that's awesome.
<br />
<br />
We're in full-on winter mode here around the resort and hopefully you're all ready to get going when we open up on December 14th. With a little luck, who knows - we might even be able to start the season on Friday the 13th instead.
<br />
<br />
So, who's got dibs on first chair?

<span style="background-color: black; color: cyan; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Alright, you've hit every feature in the Jungle Jib this season. Once Butterscotch opened up, you were the first in line. You were a dedicated Night Rider. You hit the US Airbag more times than you can count. So this weekend, cap off your season of shred with Rock n' Roll Pond Skimming. You've got to know you have the upper hand here. You've been jibbing with the best of 'em, your balance has been tested...what's there to lose? Well, maybe your dryness...but no big deal. You can find more info on Pond Skimming below:</span><br />

The first update is that the Jungle Jib has re-opened and has a couple new features, so be sure to check it out. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: cyan; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: cyan; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And the second update is less an update and more of a gentle reminder, no a forceful reminder, no a demand that you hit the US Airbag before it leaves on March 10th. You only have a few more days to get some of your biggest air and work out a new trick that might not be ready for a full snow landing. 3 jumps will only run you ten bucks, so get to it. </span><br />

<span style="color: cyan;">The weather has been a bit tricky this year. We've had everything from sub-zero temps, to rain to high winds and heavy snow. We've tried to rearrange the schedule the best we could. This week the Night Riders schedule will continue with a Rail Jam. Finals will be held next week on Wednesday, March 13th. This means we will only hold five regular events plus the finals this year. Thank you for your support of Night Riders and let's finish of the year in style with two more fun events.</span><br />
<span style="color: cyan;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: cyan;">See you on Wednesday.</span><br />

<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: cyan;">US Airbag is here at Bolton Valley from March 1st to March 10th. If you've ever been aerial-curious you'll want to give this a go. US Airbag is a bit like terrain park training wheels. You can give new tricks a try by landing on a huge, inflatable airbag. Or, take your first ever jumps. </span></div>
