Frank's+Crescent+Tour--Word+Choice

Have you ever had that feeling of soaring through the air, or going lightning fast down a white powdery hill? If not head over to Mt. Crescent Iowa. It's very exciting! You can go out and hit slopes all day. They even have 10 foot ramps and other obstacles such as grinding rails and rainbow rails. After that you will be very excited to get your boots on and hit the slopes, but first they make you sign a waiver. A waiver is a sheet that has to be signed by a parent or guardian. It only takes five minutes to sign a waiver but after that you can get your boots on and hit the slopes.

After that you would go out and get on the ski lift. Most of you know you usually need a chair lift on big hills. Well Crescent has one of those to; they actually have two of them that can pull you to the top without exhaustion. So when you get to the top you get to go down a pretty steep hill when you get to the bottom of that you can go right or left if it's your first time snowboarding. I would recommend you to go down the right it's not as steep and has no ramps. Now if you go left there is a gigantic hill with about 9 ramps and 6 grinding rails. I would recommend experienced snowboarders go down this hill. But also their is one special rail called a rainbow rail, and here is one of my worst snowboarding moments on one.

First I should probably tell you what a rainbow rail is. Well it's a grinding rail that goes up like a ramp and than you land back on the rail as you go back to the snowy surface. So here is one of my first times trying one. I go down the hill way to fast I hit the rail go flying on to the rail turn my board slightly to the left then all a sudden. BAM! Slammed my back right on the middle of the rail. I sprained my back but luckily it was not my head that I hurt.

So after you get done with the rails you got the monster, this boy is a 13 foot tall ramp with a six foot platform to land on it's a huge ramp. But anyway it was actually made for adults but if you show the ski patrol you have the skills they let you go down. I almost forgot if you don’t have a snowboard or skis you can rent them there, I know right, they have it all so if you are sitting around one day with nothing to do. In the winter I would recommend you go out to Mt. Crescent. It's almost a guarantee that you will have a great time. And you just might come upon me boarding there. Make sure to yell for me because I know I’ll being going so fast I won't be able to hear you. Hope you have a great time.
