Corona Time (conceived during the 2020 Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic) weaves its way through the woods roughly parallel to Dee Drop. Made with love and affection by the secretive 69420 squad. Hence why it was conceived as opposed to built. It contains two rock faces, multiple berms and corners, jumps and a steep (but relatively smooth) chute

Access Info

Directly across from the Bottom of Squamish AB and close to the bottom of boneyard off of the forest path.
