Burke

this was my first week at burke. day one i was working in the terrain park. it was a very eventfull day. the night before there was very warm weather and rain so the next day a lot of the rails were loose and there were a lot of ruts in the park. the day was filled with cutting lips and filling in the sides of rails. we would get the wet snow from the woods to use on the rails. fun day and a needed job. parks need to be maintained and kept safe. a good park can bring in more visits and a well maintained park can cut down on injuries. the second day i was in ski school. burke's ski school get a lot of ski lessions supposed to snowboard lessions. burke makes a lot of money in the their ski school. the deal with a lot of LTR and learn to ski lessions. plus they dont pay their instructors very much. they have some good programs but it can be a very hectic stressfull day.
