The park looks alright but dont go to vail to ski park, hit up the back bowls u can always find something fresh, blue sky ridge (think thats what its called) behind that for nice glades, dont go to vail for park, really.

Park is good, its on golden peak, check it out and if you like it stay there.  Otherwise I would stay off the front of the mountain - its all really lame unless your looking for crowds of tourists and lame cruisin groomers.  Primarily stay in the back bowls - sun up, sun down, tea cup, china, siberia.  Don't bother going to Mongolia Bowl.  But mostly I'd ski blue sky.  Theres so many fun things back there - tree shots, cliffs, natural jumps, etc.  Just go explore back there.  Have a good time.  And if it snows the best place to go is far away from the lift - (its worth the traverse).
