When the weather starts to change, Mt Bachelor's sister resort on the Sierra summit Boreal Mountain Resort turns on the snow guns. Several days of serious snowmaking allowed the resort to open up the Castle Peak Quad for its earliest season opening in history on Friday, October 9.
Back for it's 5th year in a row, Boreal hosted the JPi5 Event, Oct. 10-11. What used to be only open to pro shredders, was opened up to the public this year. Jibassic Public Invitational 5 was judged by Robbie Sell from FUEL TV and the Boreal Park Crew. Not an easy job, I'm sure!
Prizes included $2000 in cash for best tricks. Given away on the spot!
