Get your PARK PASS

The Bogus Basin Park Pass Safety Education Program helps provide a safer and more enjoyable environment for all guests using our three terrain parks. As the first resort in Idaho to offer a terrain park safety-based program, Bogus Basin lives up to the old saying "safety first, fun second." Education is an important aspect of managing safe terrain parks.

Sunshine Terrain Park

Beginner/introductory level.  Located at the end of Sunshine Cat Track (take a right off the top off of Morningstar Chair #2 and on riders left of the Sunshine run.). This park is built for riders who want to try park features and built for the learning rider. This park currently features two 15-foot kickers with a beginner rainbow rail and battleship. This is a beginner park, but park riding is not a beginner activity! Get your turns and stopping skills down first, then come try the park. This park is closed from 4:00pm - 4:30pm daily for grooming and maintenance.

Playground Freestyle Terrain Park

Intermediate-advanced level. The entrance is past the top of Deer Point chairlift, just past the Claim Jumper terrain park toward top of Showcase Chair #4. The line changes often but currently consists of down rail, a wake rail, shotgun rail, battleship rail, barrel, corrugated mini quarter pipe and a picnic table. This feature has many different options of ways to be hit. We will begin phase 2 of putting up features after the next snowfall. The X-Box, 40 foot box, C-rail and possibly some bowls are next to come. This park is closed from 4:00pm - 4:30pm daily for grooming and maintenance.

Claim Jumper Terrain Park 

This park is geared more toward the intermediate to advanced rider. The entrance to this terrain park is below the Deer Point #1 Chair unloading area, you can see it from the chairlift. Claim Jumper has a 40-foot kicker up top and a 30-foot kicker at the bottom. The jumps and landings can change with snowfall and conditions. You can see the top kicker from the yurt webcam. This park is closed from 4:00pm - 4:30pm daily for grooming and maintenance.

Freestyle Terrain is becoming more popular at resorts and proper use is important. The National Ski Areas Association and Burton Snowboards have developed the "Smart Style" Freestyle Terrain Safety initiative, a cooperative effort to continue the proper use and progression of freestyle terrain at mountain resorts, while also delivering a unified message that is clear, concise, and effective.

  • Before getting into freestyle terrain observe all signage and warnings
  • Scope around the jumps first not over them
  • Use your first run as a warm up run and to familiarize yourself with the terrain
  • Be aware that the features change constantly due to weather, usage, grooming and time of day
  • Do not jump blindly and use a spotter when necessary
  • Know your limits and ski/ride within your ability level
  • Look for small progression parks or features to begin with and work your way up
  • Freestyle skills require maintaining control on the ground and in the air
  • Do not attempt any features unless you have sufficient ability and experience to do so safely
  • Inverted aerials increase your risk of injury and are not allowed at Bogus Basin Mountain
  • Respect the terrain and others (Freestyle terrain is for everyone regardless of equipment or ability)
  • One person on a feature at a time
  • Wait your turn and call your start
  • Always clear the landing area quickly
  • Respect all signs and stay off closed terrain and features
