i was there like 2 weekends ago when there was like a foot and a half of snow so naturally i didnt go in the park but i took a lift over it and it looked pretty fun with a pretty good amount of creative rails and whatnot

really if your goin to vail dont go to the park just take advantage of blue sky and the bowls. Although im assuming your from the east. If your from like denver than most mountains have bowls and what not so idk

i was there yesterday. It was nicely groomed.

1 triple jump line (30ish, 35ish, 40ish)
2 smaller 2 jump lines (10 to 15 and 15 to 20)
A Super pipe and a mini pipe
1 mini step up with two take offs (10 and 15 feet?)
Many boxes and rails (probably like 35+)
1 XL jump line 40 foot step over, 55 foot step over)

overall pretty good. I like it better than last year.

and they expanded bwana park a lot, like 20-25 rails over there now

Last time I was there was for free flow. Nice jumps, REALLY fun and creative boxes/rails... SHITTY ass pipe. ^ No idea what that dude is talking about... that thing was solid ice and all chewed up. (Then again I ride Breck and Copper's pipes... prob two of the best groomed pipes in the world. So hard to compare I guess...)

Why do you consider yourself a newschool skier if you don't ski park. I seriously doubt that you had good snow six days in a row in December.
