    Hell yeah... Highland opens soon. Got a few trips in the works for thunder and Burke if my job in WA falls through. I just rode launch last week.

    It's in rough shape but, still fun none the less

    yeah, all the features are still there. Found out the hard way they dug out the landing of the last jump in the jump line. Alot of sketchy un maintained stuff but I can walk there from my sisters house so it's an option when I am in town

    I def making a pilgrimage to Highland this summer then a few days at Killington. They are putting big $$$$s into their park. Next time you are down near Launch go ride Mt Penn in Reading. Very fun shuttle runs.

    i love riding DH! its like surfing on the dirt. Spent a lot of time at Mt Creek and Platty... but these days really prefer Blue mountain in PA. about the same distance but a bigger mountain with better terrain IMO. still riding my 2009 dw link sunday
