Me and my friends wanna go on a trip somewhere but we cant decide what has the best park/ whats the all around best mountain. we were thinking vermont like okemo or something or like mountain creek in nj. If you guys have been anywhere thats close to new york (under a 7 hour drive) tell me about it and what you think is the best.

Big Boulders Website is beyond lame. Check for the big boulder cult it is and open invite - there is information and links to videos showing last years park.

If i were you i'd hit up mtn creek. there adding another peak of park this year..and the park last year was nothing short of sweetness..its worth it for you, wouldnt have to drive that extra 5 hrs to get another park just a tad bit better...mtn creek should be pretty sick this year..i reccommend it..not on a weekend tho..CROWDS...also...if you want to ski any sort of steep terrain other than park..the farther north the better..but mtn creek is worth it for the park.

Jea!  Hahaha I love/hate Alpine.  I live there pretty much but it sucks a huge one.  The park is going to be better this year.  They added an S-Rail and a Rainbow Rail.  The park is also going to be on the handle tow hill where the "half pipe" used to be.  Who are you?
