showdown: has some fun rails but super weak on jumps except for the big air weekend when they build a nice kicker on top of a nice headwall.
great divide: small with lots of features and nice flow, lots of different lines to choose from. there is like a 30 foot wall and a ropetow, sound system and lights
big mountain: very fun, nice sized jumps, some fun rails, has lights and sound system and a triple chair
and you forgot beartooth pass: super lax, they use red lodge's rails and usually have at least on nice table.

apparently big mtn is going to be ill this year. there's a thread in the regional forums about it. but yeah there's a knowledgeable skier in charge of it (hopefully) and it could just be insane.

great divide was pretty good last year, relaly good after BS came in for the state thing and designed that.
the park is going to be in the same spot, but the new mini park is going to be a little farther down i think.
this coming year should be good, i heard word of it being change weekly, we got some new boxes, including a 20 foot-foot and half wide box, a trap, and an a fram.the boxes are all lime green, pretty sick color.
lots of rails this year from what i can tell. if i remember theres a coule flat bars, a single barrle thats around 20 feet, theres a high bar, and single kink up flat or flat down, there is also a quard kink( think its that many) they might have a weak as c rial or 2 that they might connect to make an s rail.
this is going to be a great year park wise for great divide!

the only really bad part bout great divide last year was some of hte features and really them just not maintaining it or ever changing it, i think the park only changed once, adn that was for the state thing adn after that it stayed that way.
o and to add on to what i said last post we have a huge fucking wall.
sorry for the double post

Rails showdown will have this year: 4 flat rails of various heights and lengths, 1 flat down, one 30' flat down flat or down flat down, a battleship, a whale rail, a butter box, and a 24' flat box they also have 3 pvc rails, there is a rumor of a battleship box and if we get our way, we get a lift tower for a rail to.
Bassically, we should have some fun rails, hopefully we will have a table with a deck longer than 10 feet
All times are Eastern (-5)
