Hey im going to white pass to visit my grandpa probably the weekend after christmas. I really wanna ski some park, because i haven't skied any yet this year.  Here is the update today...

PARK UPDATE: Tuesday, December 23rd
We're OPEN! We've got 7 or 8 features ready this morning with more coming as soon as we get more snow. Thanks for your patience! It's going to be a great year. See you on the hill.

I just wanna know from people who ski white pass and know it, whats the park gonna be looking like by then?  it says they are waiting for more snow to get the park better.  Are there any table tops yet?  and hit me up if you wanna do some runs together. I will probably be skiing 2-3 days.

just got home from there today.
was pretty good all day except for the fact that the power went out and the lift was running on diesel.
but once the power came back the line got short.
the park has 2 flat boxes, a right and a left c, two down rails, and a little rail to learn on.
no jumps yet.
ill be there again tomorrow.

Whit Pass was great the last two days. Last night was actually a ton of fun. No lines - felt great to open up and see how out of shape my legs got in the off season! Lots of snow. Can't wait to hit it up after the holiday crowds head out.

I was just up today.  Still spring conditions... don't hold your breath, looks like that's how it's gonna be for the rest of the week.  I mean, it was still super fun.  Kind of a cruiser day... steeps were soooooo icy, it was like skiing gravel and asphalt.
