    Description
    I know what many of you are thinking," why make an Avalanche track when you have Sandbox", but this track is something to enjoy. Racing on the same Sandbox tracks get a little annoying and I decided to make a track on Avalanche in a different location. The map is located above the barrier between the two bases(above where the ghost usually would be). The map layout is not too original but the theme and scenery from the background adds to the uniqueness of the map. The track is very intense for battle snipes. Haven't tried the other BT gametypes but I'm sure they work well also. The track is about 21 seconds and also uncheatable. The best I could do since the objects are kind of limited on Avalanche. It can be played with up to 16 players. Well on to the pics and don't forget to download the map!

    First off.
    I say YAY for not being Sandbox.
    Secondly this looks great.
    Not everyone can interlock smoothly, so I give you a + on that as well.
    Looks pretty damn sweet.
    Great job. 5/5

    Ah yes, i remember playing on this the otherday. I thought it played really well! :) And after getting past the initial shock of the barrier doors at the spawn, everything ran smoothly. I know you don't have any other options for that, it's a shame really. But better there than on the track where it could hinder the gameplay.

    Overall, it's a really fun race map and I'm sure I'll have games on it in the future. :)

    Another great track from you, Spectac. I really like the idea and the layout of the track. Everything was really smooth, and played great with Battle Snipes. I wasn't a fan of the Juicy FX, and I think it actually makes the energy blockers brighter, doesn't it? Overall, this is a very inspiring track that takes a unique idea and executes it to perfection. Frozen Palisade will join the few Avalanche racetracks that remain on my harddrive indefinitely.

    This is my favorite Avalanche skytrack to date. The turns and banks are smooth and very fun. The weapons are balanced. The drops and dips are perfect. I love the end section leading up to the goal. Your tracks are always great. Nice work.

    Very nice track dude I like it allot. The banks are nice and smooth and it really is nice to see something on a map other than sandbox.

    No credit for the idea :O Comon you know you got that idea from me, remember where I started my track a while ago but deleted it by accident :/

    But great track never the less

    (why do I still have this signature...)

    Sorry Vapour, but I honestly wasn't even thinking about your attempt at making a map at that area while I was making this. I completely forgot about that. Sorry if you feel some type of way.

    @Shaddo: The juicy fx actually lessens the brightness from the energy blockers, at least on my tv it does.

    Anyways, I'm glad you guys like the map.
