While the event did not have the deep powder enjoyed last year, the was a layer of soft snow on the inbounds comp area which was full of  natural and “human enhanced” features.

The elimination day cut the men’s field to eight riders and the women’s down to four for finals day. In the end Sage Kostenberg took the win over tour rookie Jared Elston while Elena Hight edged out Elena Van Gyn in the women’s final.

The riders from finals day have been invited to the next stop on the tour at Baldface Lodge, British Columbia, Canada, February 20-27
