holiday valley is the best  and it is like an hour and a half away, peakn peak is much closer and is not too bad. there are some more but those are the best two.

yeah pknpk is right on the ny/pa border...i was there for the first time the other day, and i loved it.  My home mtn is holiday valley, and i liked pknpk a lot more.  It's not as big as hv, but there is a great vibe there and they had a great park setup.  Besides hv and pknpk,  there is a tiny resort (my other home mtn) called kissing bridge, but i wouldnt drive too far to go there.  there is also bristol in the rochester, ny area, ive never been there but i hear it is pretty nice

bristol sucks, holiday valley is decent, pk n pk has like 293250237908 feet of snow right now. that should make your decision pretty easy.

not worth it yet. the spot (our biggest park) hasn't been built yet, the alley is alright, and santa's beard is just a waste of time.
by the end of the month, i would definitely suggest going to springs. but until all 4 parks are built up, don't bother. a day pass is $70. honestly.

yep, they did. but again, most of them will be in either the spot or north park, neither of which are open.

but yeah, the price of a day pass at springs is more expensive than a day pass at alta/snowbird. unreal.

if you're gonna go to alpine you might as well go to bmbw. or if your lookin for other places in ohio mad river.

both of those places will blow alpine away.

possibly snowtrails in mansfield, but idk what there park has been like ever since OFS left.

For park you gotta hit up Pk now.  They just finished even more in the 3 park.  You can ride the park all day and still have fun. Yes I know I agree a fun park at Pk!?! WTF
