I am headed up north (Michigan) tomorrow night... skiing Tuesday & Wednesday and want to hit two different resorts! Any suggestions on who has the best park? It can be any resort but Boyne Highlands, Boyne Mt., Nub's Nob, Caberfae.....

Thanks for your help

just don't go to Cabrafae if you want to ski park. Nubs is pretty nice, otherwise I don't know.

So... for anyone who cares!
I ended up at Nubs for Tuesday's day session... Park was dirt, only one hit and a spine jump for big air! a small small pipe, and some messed up rails that looked like they were pulled from the trash... the only thing that was going good for Nubs was the super pipe!

And I ended up at Highlands on Wednesday mid-day session... Park was better than Nubs (but still not as good as Pine Knob) I liked the three hit section, but there was not enough time between jumps to prepare to throw anything big on the next, medium size half pipe that was very nice, and good variety of rails!

Anyway... don't get heated, just my personal opinion! But if you really wanna ride park?!?! Come down to PK (fast cause the snow is melting everywhere in good old Michigan) and see a REAL park!

Otsego- Huge jumps and sweet rail yard and a 22 ft pipt
Highlands - three nice jumps and okay rails small pipe
nubs - 1 tiny jump and 13 rails/boxes which are good, and an 18 ft pipe

The 3 jump line at highlands is super fun imo.
Haven't been to nubs this year but they generally have jack squat as far as jumps but lots of rails.
