I was there Monday and Tuesday.

Bear Mountain was closed. Still tons of snow on it. Sucks that it was closed. Ramshead was also closed. There were some rails setup on this one run, but it was closed off. And there wasn't anyone working on it.

Not sure about that.

as soon as someone hears something please post it. I want to go up there on Saturday and a park would make it that much better.

Right off the site

Terrain Parks/Halfpipe: Ranked by FREESKIER Magazine as the #12 resort in the U.S. and #2 in the East for pipes and parks: The Superpipe is closed for the season. Late season terrain park to open on Skyelark- For more info, visit www.ridekillington.com

just like killyvtchic said

should be better for jumps then bittersweet since it's a little steeper

i hit it up yesterday, and they few jibs were kinda fun to session for a little while, but if your thinking of a roadtrip or something, don't bother. take that money and invest it in your own rail or something.
