Not quite sure what your point is here, but Bear is the park/freeride area.
Weren't they supposed to set up some kind of boarder cross course on lower Fiddle this year? It never happened for obvious reasons (no snow making). I agree that between dream maker, the stash & the super pipe Bear is the park/free ride area. Except for what they set up on Timberline at Ramshead.

I would use superstar (or part of it) for a major park event, and blow snow on it accordingly.

This makes a lot of sense. Double tasking. Have a major event and enough snow to start a good base for spring skiing. Better use of snowmaking resources than having huge piles of snow waste away over on Bear during the spring.

also on lower supe with the umbrella bars, it's more user friendly for spectating in addition to being more profitable.
