I know this is an often talked about topic,but hometown-pride aside, what are the best places to ride on the right coast for both freeriding(trees,pow,bumps) and park...
I haven't skied everywhere, but in my opinion:

Freeride Hills
1. Jay
2. Stowe
3. Mad River
4. Cannon
5. Sugarbush
anybody ride Bretton's new trees? a lot of smaller mountains i havent skied. Also, Sugarloaf looks decent but its way up north.

Park-
Stratton, Mt. Snow, Sunday River, Okemo all have their good days. Any mountain can have a few good hits, but these parks are pretty extensive.

Let me know what you think, id like to find some new spots going off or little hills... Is Tenney gonna be good next year with the new freeski management and attitude?

Catamount, thought really small, had a nice park last year. I think they've got somethign of a scene going on, I might buy a pass there next year. But with my liscence coming soon, Id like to travel much much more. Get to kinda see the eastern seaboard a lil more.

Alright im a bit bias, but for some good backcountry and tree skiing cannon definately is really sick. there limited as far as stuff marked on the map goes, but with the number of hidden trails and mitersil, theres like a whole nother mtn, as far as the park goes were workin on it, and it got a lot better this year

1. stowe/mansfield 1. stratton(park, pipe, jibs,VARIETY)
2.Jay area 2. mt snow(park, sick but no variety)
3.magic 3. stowe and killington. dope flow, varietyin the parks.

i am alos not including the presidentials or any for that. these are just the mtns i have visited and thta is why mad river, smuggs, sunday river, and smuggs arent on the list.

yeah i heard waterville is super dope, but i have not been there either. not yet.

yeah i dont like mt snow either, the management is super gay. all they have is those 2 tables. the jibs blow with the exception of the kink(setup late season). pipe is garbage, and theres no variety. but theres no saying those bottom two tables aret sick.

i think stowe is the sickest because when you go off the trails its so sick and also you can hike up to the top of the mountain

how come bretton woods has no park, ive never been there cause its flat as hell and no park, but you'd expect a mtn with that much money to invest in a park, i mean even my mtn has started too and no one goes there,

tremblant is up there as far as parks go, and an often unheard of mountain called le massif alledgedly has tons of snow, is the tallest ski resort in eastern canada (maybe even all of eastern north america) and apparently is amazing for everything other than park. i cant verify this, though.

Mt. Snow's got a nice park. Sunday River is good too. Mad River is awwwesome. So is Castlerock Peak at Sugarbush- in my opinion best terrain skiing in the East. Jay's got some nice bumps.


And then Trogdor smote the Kerreck, and all was laid to burnination.
