I live in West Michigan by G.R. so I ski Cannonsburg daily / Boyne Mountain on the weekend.

Nubs Nob is nice also.

I think Boyne Mountain and Nubs have the best of what the lower peninsula has to offer. And both have decent enough parks (Nubs has no kickers though)

I am about ready to buy my season passes for 08-09. $700 for Boyne....$300 for Cannonsburg.

Cburg has a surprisingly nice little setup.

When does Cburg open up by usually? I was thinking of even trying to get a job there or do ski patrol for the free pass.....
I heard its 8 hours a week you have to ski and out on the hills and you get a Cannonsburg pass

What are you guys doing during the summer time?

I live in GH so that pretty much explains what I do in my free time (beach and shit)

I will probably ski alpine valley and boyne also a few times next year. I just built a summer setup up north, so I will be practicing skiing this summer.

I've skied Mt. Holly, Pine Knob, Crystal, Boyne and Nubs in the last week and a half....Pine Knob's park blows the other 4 out of the water as far as jumps are concerned.  PK has a pretty decent 4 hit jump line that goes 30ft step-down, 35ft or 25ft step-up, 10ft table(small), 30ft step-down.  I don't hit rails but they have at LEAST 2 dozen rail features as well.  Boyne's park was by far the worst UNLESS you ski the SuperPipe.

For real pine knob has that many rails?  Holly has like 4 rails but the jumps are pretty decent.  I want to hit up Pine Knob now.  If not this year then alot next year.  Because I love rails just as much as jumps if not more.

Yeah Pine Knob does have at least two dozen rails but again I do not hit them so I am not sure if you would consider them good, great or shitty...

the park is very small 1 big jump and two smaller ones...otherwise there are a lot of boxes and maybe 3 or so rails. a ton of snowboarders there. i think it will close this weekend if it has not already. hope this helps.
