yes, park on the glacier at t-line will be up and def. worth it for a spring pass, maybe head over to meadows for a day also if they are still open

bachelor wont be too good by then, and its near closing for them also

meadows spring passes are very cheap, the parks are always sick, and the mountain has challenging terrain.

yea but they might not still be open. they will be open for weekends in may as long as there are at least 4000 skier visits each weekend. if there are only 3500 for th weekend total, end of the season. and its just weekends so a spring pass might not be worth it. once again, just keep checking websites for updates, t-line is the safest bet though and pretty much garunteed to be open

If meadows is open, cascade superpark is def your best bet. 4 mackin kickers in a row.

no airchamber? probably not worth it then, though the slopestyle run isn't bad, just really short.

with amount of snow we've gotten this year, I wouldn't bother with meadows or bachy at the end of may, just get the tline spring pass and ride there,

T-Line is your 100% guaranteed good riding through May... if Meadows keeps snow, the Cascade Superpark will be dope, but that's still an "if". And I don't know much about Bachy. Personally, I'll be shredding the gnar at Timberline.
