Just wondering what park conditions are like generally at the end of March. Might make the trip up if they're usually good. Any input?

It's so flat you'll have to skate your way down the whole hill.

Dude slush is perfect for trying new tricks and shit, it hurts way less than groomed normal stuff. and its just fun to mess around in, not to mention its warm!

Spring skiing at snow is a lot of fun, but the key is to get there early and leave early, especially if you're doing park. Carinthia gets sun all day and by 1:00 the takeoffs and landings have 2 foot ruts in them.
Other than that spring skiing at snow is so much fun

it's really fun there in the spring, crowded but fun depending when you go. it looks like there's going to be a decent storm this week that should help and cold temps will keep it there, things should be good for the next warm up!

I was there last weekend when it was 50ish, and it was balling. One of the best weekend's of my life. Landing's were super soft, and the rail's wern't sticky.
