FRISCO \u2014 Arapahoe Basin Ski Area will open its terrain park again on snow-covered slopes this weekend for skiing and riding after trying out the idea last weekend.<\/p>\n

The Summit County ski area at the Continental Divide will open the terrain park from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.<\/p>\n

The park will be at the top of the High Noon run and will be accessible via a ride on the Black Mountain Express chairlift followed by a short walk.<\/p>\n

The last download from the park is at 3 p.m. No skiing or riding to the base of the mountain\u2019s front side will be available.<\/p>\n

Season passes, including A-Basin or Epic passes, are not valid at the terrain park, and everyone must purchase a $25 terrain park ticket in the A-Basin guest services office in Mountain Goat Plaza.<\/p>\n

Last weekend, A-Basin provided seven features in the terrain park. Outside of the terrain park, A-Basin closed skiing and riding for the season July 4.<\/p>\n
