I'm looking to go to windells for either the last two or just last summer sessions. Has anyone been and if so is it considerably worse than the mid / early summer sessions because of less snow / more wear and tear on the park? Because its about 700 cheaper if I do two late season weeks vs. two mid season weeks.

well I've never been to a regular season session, but my time at session 8 at windells was epic!
it was really fun, and there was still more than enough snow. the only feature they had taken down was that hugeee box, otherwise everything was still up and perfect
the only downside is that since there were hardly any kids there that session, we didnt really have those big contests and fun night things that you see all over their website
an upside to no one being there, you got soooo much more coaching time. there were only four skiers in the entire camp when i went, one was really good, and one was sent out there from ninthward to train. so it was just me and another girl the entire week getting great tips from our coach. and there was like no waiting lines to hit stuff and yah it was just really sick.
so basically.. if you're out there to shred all day everyday, the late sessions are for you. just enough shenanigans to give you that camp experience, but you get more skiing in so half the time youre wicked tired so you just crash anyways

less snow so less features - BUT less people so more feature per people. Does that make sense?
I work there and I think that the first session and the last two are my favorite by far!
