The place's popularity with freestyle riders has everything to do with the multitude of carefully constructed jumps. Parents can have a view of most of the hill while ensconced in the comfy lodge at the bottom with a cup of cocoa. For those who crave powder and aren't afraid of trees or a strenuous plod back up the hill, Ester Dome can be a fun place. Some regulars have constructed the odd jump from time to time as well. The largest slopes close to town, Moose has several runs.
Buses carry skiers and boarders from the lodge up to the top.
There are a few jumps, too. Off to the side is the area's only official half-pipe. A classic for beginners. Walking up the hill lets the rider decide just how high to start a run. The walk is also good recovery time after a rough run, which describes those of most beginners.
