which places have parks up and what do they have going for them? I'm heading up this weekend and im just wondering which places to hit. I'd be concerned about conditions, except my skis are missing 3" under foot and everywhere has been ravaged by the rain anyways.

burke mtn has 3 parks up, a large (3 tables (from 30-55 ft), two big rails (a flat down, and a long flat), and a hip), a medium (has a ton of like 20 ft tables a few rails and some boxes), and mini park (it has two pretty good sized rails, and the pussiest jump ever)....theyre nice, but the landings are bit firm from the rain, theyll be good in a few days though

yeah Okemo has a long flat rail (angled up) and a pretty big flat down, plus that crazy U box. And they have some ok hits (nothing big) They also have the wall at the bottom which is waaaaay better than last year

mount snow has a pretty good park. i like the way they set up their rails this year so there's a gap on to em. they got a bunch of flat rails and a short flat down, a rainbw, a butter box i don't understand and a flat box. it's a good park, bound to be better by now, since it's been a wile since i went

yeah holson, whaleback looks dope. I think smuggs might just have the best park around as of now. They have 1 mini jump, 1 medium jump and one nice big jump. They also have some rails that are set up kind of sketchy but the jumps are prime.
