buff has the atmosphere, wilmot has the park and the lifts, but either way they are almost the same, it depends if one wants a chairlift

pros of buffalo

rope tow=1000000 laps a day

half pipe? kind of?

more jumps that were good towards the end of the season

not all boxes

cons

buff pass is 68$ more than wilmot

sketchy landings somtimes

Im pretty sure im getting a buff pass

I could never bring myself to pay for a pass to wilmot, I cant believe that a buffalo pass is more than wilmot!

they bought a pipe cutter last year and now they can cut the only legit pipe in possibly the whole midwest. which is pretty bitching + they dont get the crowds of gapers that wilmot is over populated with which means less money for them and that means they are forced to make season passes cost more which makes the extra 60$ worth every penny. and having more than 2 jumps is always nice

Not gonna lie buff had an awesome chill vibe to it and is crazy fun, but i live 10 min from wilmot.
But at wilmot we have gander so we can ski backcountry in the midwest.

The problem i'm having is i don't want to work there anymore at least i think. last year i got fucked I would call out there to see if it was ok to work that night and they always said no. or they would call me the day they wanted me out there with no time to plan. So will see what happens.

AND I SURE DON'T WANT TO TEACH SKI SCHOOL AGAIN. So a pass seems like the only good idea

ya i got yelled at for teaching ONLY 2 lessons a day and then having to leave to play hockey... and they yelled at my mom whom also taught there for having to many kids in her group which was assigned to her by the same person who yelled at her. they would honestly be better of if they didn't think they were the shit and started actually focusing on how to run the ski school instead of assuming everything is fine because they're so damn good in their minds

the one problem is the Ski School (ski & board) is just so big so many instructors. I have been thinking about joining Ski Patrol seems like a way smart move then Ski School.

Who are all these kids claiming they ski wilmot? theres definitly only 4 skiers inlcuding myself that actually go there on a weekend or day to day basis. Anyway, wilmot over buff any day, but wilmots closer and i get a free pass so whatever.

Well i'm Erick.
I Built some of the park the last 3 years with Tim Doyle at wilmot. Not sure whats going on with that this winter. May just be a Season pass holder less stress and Bullshit from the Garage about cat time and when i can work and can't work. Most people know me I think.

i find that early sunday mornings is the optimal time to hit the jump at wilmot, before all the gapers rut out the landing
