I would say 2nd or 3rd would be best cause everything will be set up by then and the snow will still be around

Actually 1-3 are the best, they have everything set up by session 1 and like no one is up there so its kinda the best session to go to, and 2 and 3 are still less crowded then 4. Plus about the time 3 and 4 come around, snow is melting bad.

To be honest I don't think I'm going back to highnorth. It was fun but I didn't realy learn anything, the big jump was open for about 5 minutes the whole time I was there. I might end up at momentum this summer to give that a try cause people where hitting the big jump all the time there. Plus I was kinda stuck in a groop with kids who didn't know how to do anything so I got really held back, I'm sure it'll be the same at any other camp though

Sure but clearly High North didnt work out for him and he didnt like it. Give somewhere else a try, there is a place for everyone, and its not always high north.

Yeah i would never go to momentum, their lane in general is sooo steep and it just isnt the best part for a park. HNs is steep for the inrun for the big jump, then nice a flat for rails and shit. Because about 60-70% of camp is doing rails.

I dunno IT just didn't work out all that great at HN for me. I mean it was sick, it was so much fun, The park was great, well setup, I dunno I just didn't really learn all that much, Not trying to keep people away from High North, I just think I'd try momentum next time to see what's better

for the price of a week in a camp, you can ski a month on glacier, with minimal connections.

well i went to 1 and 2 this past summer and 1 is cool cus it's a smaller group ans it's a little more chill, but the big jump probly wont be up by the end of the session and you will probly hit more rails.
2 is dope everything is up and perfect but there are a lot more kids which can be more intimidating i suppose out of the two session 2 is probly better becasue of weather and so on

To a poster above, camp doesn't automatically make you learn things, they provide the best opportunity for YOU to learn and push yourself. You only get as much as you put in. My first year back in 1998, it was cloudy, foggy and rainy everyday and I had the best week of my life on skis!
