depends what skiing your trying to do.
Ive heard tash's park is pretty on point this year. Wildcat is def your best bet for some real turns especially after tuesday's storm.

Cranmore is pretty fun as well, and they will have cranarchy coming up soon which is always a fun treat.

Thanks I'm going by over all. I really like cranmores park because of the variety of features but I feel like I'm giving up sidecountry and tree skiing.

cranarchy is going to be fun. im going to wildcat tomorrow for the storm, wildcat almost always gets more snow, and has better terrain. for park wildcat is decent, but attitash has such a sick park this year. such good jumps. jumps at cranny are fine, but a lot more challenging rails compared to attitash..it really depends

road attitash's park today and it was straight money. Nice jumps and the rails are set up well so you can get creative with a variety of tricks. The only thing cranmore has is a variety of rails. I've heard their jumps suck though.

Also if you get an attitash ticket you can go to wildcat so shred the woods in the morning and ride park in the afternoon at attitash

Heres som pictures of the park from today

You would have to look pretty hard anywhere to find pow three days four days after a storm but you should be able to find some in Thompson Brooke off skiers right side. I havent skiied cranmore but from what ive heard around the valley go to cranmore from rails and attitash/wildcat for jumps and cruising or pow

They have downgraded anything you idiot. The only mistake they've made this year was re-arranging the parks. The Darkside was the place to be, and had a much better pitch for jumps, than it does now for boardercross and rails. As far as rails go, Cranmore is the best out of the three, and the one 35' jump they have in the Directors Cut is prime.

Sorry that a thirty-five foot jump is to big for you to hit.

Fuck cranmore. The attitash/ wildcat combo is what's up, attitash's park this year was really impressive, especially compared to the park of previous years. Wildcat has debatably some of the best actual skiing around, by that I mean terrain. So much trees to ski and great shit right under the lift. Also you can buy a season pass for 400$ which goes to both mountains
