Where's the best park in your area?

I'm doing a bit of research here, if you guys don't mind helping!
I'm trying to find out which are the parks with good park scenes kicking around. Try to name the best one or two in the region...
If someone has already said the resort that you like best, please enter in a vote of "I" for the resort!
Then I'm going to try to map all the cool parks around North America.

Big Sky definitely has the best park in the state when they decide to build it. Big Mountain has the potential for a good park, but their crew is lazy and they don't quite get things built right. Great Divide seems to have the best setup for the space they have, too bad that space is extremely limited so everything's small but fun. So overall I'd say Big Sky is the best, with Great Divide and Big Mountain following theirs.

I would agree with that. Big Mountain has extreme potential, and with a new head groomer coming in next year( the old salty one quit after he realized we all wanted to kill him slowly), the stuff in our park could be much better. For sheer features, I think Big Sky has it.

I second the Big Sky vote. The only thing that could even be considered a decent park.

BS for sure, I have never been to Big Mountain but I am sure it's great. Great Divide is sick for what they have. When they decide to actually work on it, it is way sick.

Could be better. We could have a real budget and someone like Doug running it. OH, and a park crew that did more that get blazed in the shack. That might help.

Hey man don't hate on the chronic. The problem with big skys park crew, and probably big mountains as well is this: THEY SUCK ASS. Those guys set up things that they are able to hit. Unfortunatly for the rest of us, 4 different flat rails and a flat down really just isn't enough variety. I mean sure there are some 20 footers thrown in there to spice things up a little bit, but when I want to do more than a 180 I'm kind of SOL. Big sky had a big booter at the top, but half the time you couldn't get enough speed, or it was closed, or the landing hadn't been groomed. I really hope that the park this year is going to get stepped up a little bit.

Agreed. And Bridgers is the worst, closely followed by lost trail.

I wouldn't care if they did a good job, but they are being paid to keep the park fun and safe, not get blazed.
