Knoll Ridge Rebuild Progressing

Temporary facilities at Knoll Ridge are really starting to take shape as the team from Stanley Construction have been making the most of some fine weather. The new deck area is completed and with snow in the forecast the roof was flown up and put on yesterday. The toilet area is being roofed today and we're awaiting glass for the Pinnacles wall. Once the building is weather proofed, work will begin on the interior.

A Blast From The Past...

P.s. the new 32 boots are crazy wack so flexi but hella light, ohhhh dunno about that ayeeeee?!
