Sorry I did not take any pictures of the park today and the ones I took yesterday were not directly of the park. You can probably tell I am not a park person any more smiling smiley I some times wait till every one goes home before I have a go so not to embarrass my self.

The ground team have not shaped the jumps since the the last storm so they do not look very usable at the moment. They had to bust a gut to get the normal runs open yesterday. The weather forecast for the next few days looks horrendous so I am wondering if they are leaving the park till this passes.

Graeme

The jumps are formed. This was yesterday.


The take off ramps need shaping, again this was yesterday.

An updated picture from today of the park. It is not shaped and the surface is lumpy, not usable until the team get to work on it.

To embed your pictures, once you have made your post with the attachments as you have above read your post and open each link in a new tab. Copy the URL for the first picture you want to embed.
Click edit post

type {img}your link here{/img} do this for each picture

One thing, do not use { } brackets as I have typed, use [ ]. If I typed the square brackets they would not show up in the post.

If you need any more help send me a private message.

The park at Cairngorm was being put to good use today. A couple of pictures from me here but the good pictures are on the Cairngorm facebook page.

A couple of pictures of the park early on this morning. The Park Rats were swarming by lunch time and some quite impressive air. The ski cross run was getting a lot of use too, and even nessie on the ptarmigan traverse.
