Wow, why are so many NS'ers complete idiots, please dont say thing YOU DONT KNOW. Yes they do have other shit besides rails. YES they do allow skiers. AND YES IT IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC EVERY DAY. And I'm fairly sure all those other mountains you listed allow your standard gappers and are run like a regular mountain, Kingvale wont let them in.  But yeah forgot about snowparknz, but thats a ways a way.

haha id rather ski keystone/brecks kiddy park than ski echo's park. they have a sweet idea and a good vibe and everything, but their setup is terrible, and its not like they cant have a nice setup, last years last park standing was pretty damn good, and this years was pretty good. but it seems like the park crew is just lazy as hell before that competition. their park is full of shitty 5 foot long ride on flat boxes that you cant do anything on. plus they need probably 30 more rails/boxes/jibs/jumps over 5 feet for it to be good. but for an all park mountain they are terrible.

Durst, who I believe is one of the owners, is from my hometown of Conneaut Lake, Pa. We have a population of a little over 1,000.

Mountain Creek, NJ is slowly turning into an all park place. Half of the entire place is now park if i recall correctly. And before you trash NJ look back to freeskier magazine a few years ago where you will see mountain creek listed under best parks in N.america

Half you guys totally missed the point of the thread. Its not a pissing contest to see who can name some parks. Its to check out this one, thats totally different then anything you have probably seen.  We need more shit like this.
