It's probably shitty everywhere, I was at Snow today and before lunchtime the park was pretty good given the conditions. After lunch, the snow was getting slow (naturally) so I mean, if you wanted to clear anything you needed more speed. All in all, it was a good day.

depending on the temperature tonight and tomorrow stratton should be good from around 11:30-2, but there will less people so the lips wont get as tracked out so maybe til 3. before 11 itll be hard and icy and after 3 it will be sticky slush. but if it rains youre pretty much screwed anyways. and just so you know they might close the parks anyway because they only had burnside open last wednesday and it opened late. good luck

im gunna have to say killington, the park crew did a reaaally good job this weekend with keeping everything in shape and salted. The set ups not too bad either, mainly the new jump next to the halfpipe, which has a rope tow. So you can just do real quick laps of that jump which is really helpful. The main park however isnt all that good, its decent i guess. Starts off with either flat box or weird barrel jib thing, then either a shotgun flat bar with a decent drop off the end, or a down bar. Then either a flat-down rail or a mellow dfd box. Then either a barrel bonk or a weird pipe in the ground thing. Then a decent 35sh foot jump into a hip into either a up-flat-long down or a up-drop-flat box. Then its a step with with 3 take offs, the middle one having an up rail. Then a smallish jump, then a 30sh foot jump, then a 40sh foot jump. Then its the halfpipe or the new jump, which is 45sh feet but really fun. As i said before the park crew was going through the park all day checking up on things and keeping all the lips raked and salted, so it was pretty sick.

oh yea and the jump next to the pipe was doooope on sat. i sessioned it all day cause the thing just sends you up there. its sooo poppy and you float like crazy. its big enough to throw a slow spinning 7. (i did a verrrry slow 5)

also after the jump is a wallride set up really nicely
good job killy park crew!!

they took out the s-rail and im not sure what you mean by spine thing, like the little tiny double jump deal at the end of the dreammaker park? Its fun i guess but i didnt feel like it was worth mentioning.
