Looks for their prices to rise, and their park to get shitty.

True story. I would only expect the park to get better. With the dissolution of American Skiing Company the competition for ski visits in the East is going to get much more cutthroat.
For those of you that are going to hate on ASC, remember they brought you the best ski pass the east has ever seen. For $350 you could ride some of the best resorts.
You're going to see some great changes ahead for Sunday River.

Well, big sky has been under boyne the past, what 2-3 years? and the park gets worse every year.

When it hasn't snow for more than two weeks, or if its early season (lots of rocks up high), or if its like 50 degrees or warmer, you think of park first. And it happened a lot this year.

yeah i think they are just trying to get rid of all their mountains, what is it like, all but one left. But hopefully the parks will get better because killingtons was horrible

The only boyne resorts i've skied at are here in michigan, but from what i've rode its badass. Of course this is badass to michigan standards but to tell the truth, Nubs Nob, which is owned by boyne, has the best fucking park i have ever rode. Thier jump lines are so perfect and the pipe is cut quite often, plus i hear when JP came to town they even found some waist deep powder stashes up top. Just thought i'd share, i understand this has almost nothing to do with sunday or sugarloaf, but what i'm getting at is that boyne resorts parks don't suck here, so the east coast has a good chance.
