Make sure you get yourself to Wild Mountain this Sunday for the “Ollies for Alzheimers” contest. Registration is from 10am-11am and the contest is from 11am-1pm. They will also be holding their “Demo Days” event so make sure you get out there early to check out all the new gear.
Wild Mountain was once again open before Halloween and SeekJoy Productions was there to document it. The first winter season edit of the year from them features great riding by Josh Tranby, Tony Young and more. If you didn’t get a chance to ride the White Ribbon at Wild, you blew it. Wild Mountain will be closed this week but hopes to be open again this weekend. Keep your eyes peeled for your next opportunity to shred, but until then feast your eyes on some Minnesota footy.
For all those who can’t wait to hit the slopes Wild Mountain opened yesterday and Trollhaugen opened today. They both have one lift/run open. Wild Mtn. has the Expressway run and have put out three boxes (flatbox, hourglass, battleship) and Troll has Nissebakken open with a handrail and funbox. It will only set you back $10 to ride and Wild is open 9:30-5 while Troll is 1-8. They are waiting on the conditions to determine what the plan will be for tomorrow and the following week. So if you want to get out and enjoy the first run of snow Wild Mountain and Trollhaugen are the place to be, just be ready to dodge some mud and get a little wet. If you make a trip out there please stop back leave us a comment on the conditions so we know what to expect.
Even though the weather looked extremely bad right before the AmThrash Spring Rail Jam, a large group of shredders showed up at Wild Mountain. The weather took a turn for the better and everybody had a good time on what little snow was left on the hill. Many riders ended up covered in mud, but a good time seemed to be had by all that showed up. Thank you to Wild Mountain for hosting this event as always! The rideMinnesota crew was there to take pictures of the event which you should check out.
On this Saturday (Dec. 19th) at 5pm, the FL Project will be sponsoring some games of SnoDice! The games will be at Wild Mountain and it’s only $5 to ride. This is all about FUN and raising some money for the Wild Mountain Snow Park, so head over to Wild this Saturday and roll some dice with the FLP crew and help us raise money for YOUR snow park. There might even be some goodies being tossed around for those that are involved! Keep supporting the FL Project whenever possible because they put on great events like this!
