I'm sorry, but we will not operate our bike park this season. There
were
far too many construction projects occurring on the hill to allow for a
safe
and enjoyable bike experience. We will definitely operate summer 2007,
with
expanded trails.

i just hope this isnt some kind of sick april fools joke. even tho i recieved it on the 31st

I call april fools.

Okay, seriously. Its hard to tell with this one. If they are they can suck it and give me $200 for the season pass I won in a raffle. They can also give $50 to everyone who bought a season pass for last year and got screwed when they closed early.

If this is true I hate Northstar and I will NEVER go there again. Ever.

wow if this is true then this pretty much ruins a ton of my summer plans, (if true) i am pissed because i was looking forward to going up this summer.

meh, there are sooo many better places to ride out there. I honestly don't care if they are open or not.

Northstar was still fun to ride, and you didn't have to climb or shuttle to the top...

paste the headers off the email, i can probably tell if it's a fake or not.

Poeple say no star every year. I dont think they could get away with it being that they violated a contract last year by closing early, and are basicly settling with a discount on passes this year.

I think they can get away with whatever they want. They treated us pretty crappy last year, sandwiches in that little thing, weaving through construction, etc. They will probably give us a discount on staying at their luxury hotel.

[Rye_Bread]
