Mountain creek said they were gonna open monday with somewhere between 10 to 15 features. Probably boxes and hopefully a jump but I doubt it. Looks like it's gonna rain again.

Hopefully I will be skiing next week. The temps are looking okay for snowmaking at night. Head up to JFBB for a day. They have a pretty fun setup.

Okemo has a down flat down box, barrel jib hip thing, down bar, flat box, corrugated pipe, a roller with another barrel tap and an up rail to corrugated pipe (that one's definitely a snowboard feature) on Sapphire. That being said, I wouldn't think the O is your best option. I'd go to Snow based on what people are saying.

sunday river

2 parks

1 park has 11 features all in a line so you can hit them all.
The features are: butter box, down bar rail, flat circle rail, c rail, c box, dfd bar rail, up down dub barrell rail, trap box, flat box, and flat lift tower rail.

Then in the other park theres a flat bar, flat down flat box, and a down bar with a donkey dick on the end.

i was there a few days before that, we had to build the lips. then an off duty park crew boarder was like what the fuck and him and his buddies wasted their free time building lips. it wasn't even very good then.

When I went it had rained the whole day. I got 2 hours of skiing in the next day and the 'park' was like a couple rails and boxes that had no lip/landing so I didn't waste my time with them.

I would have to say Big Boulder and Jack Frost. both have some small jumps and tons of jibs. Creative ones.

I'd rather go hit the train station rail.


Gore is a good mountain for glades and being split up in different sections on different peaks, but park will always be a joke there.



I do want to hit a "contest" there sometime this season for the lols though
