The Chevy US Snowboarding Grand Prix at Bear Mountain, Killington, is wrapping up this afternoon. Under lightly overcast skies, the Men's and Women's Slopestyle competition was held on Lower Bear Claw on a park specifically created for the event.
The Halfpipe finals, originally scheduled for Saturday night, were rescheduled for this afternoon from 2:30 to 4:30 PM. Planned to take place under the lights on the half pipe carved on Lower Dream Maker,

the half pipe finals were suspended on Saturday evening due to heavy fog obscuring visibility, limiting the judges ability to evaluate each competitor.
I skied over to Bear Mountain at mid day to watch the event for a few minutes. Crowds were just starting to form to watch the Half Pipe finals. Unfortunately, I needed to get back to the inn before the event took place, but it looked like it would be a fairly busy afternoon at Bear Mountain.
Let it snow!
