Im willing to bet BB will be on a sharp decline this year.

If you are skiing with coworkers that aren't park skiers avoid BB and stick to Blue Mountain or Camelback. Havent been to bear creek so I dont have an opinion there.

Rent a house and ski elk. Wont be slope side but I’m sure close by. Way better skiing then anywhere else. Less idiots up there too then Cammelback or Big Vail Boulder.

I just assumed OP skis park, as this is NS, and I would agree that BB will have a decline.

Vail ownership. And cut back of Park scene is pretty much a given.

No surprise. And it makes sense. Same with Mt Snow. Cut the parks back, they don’t make the money and don’t fit the mold. Big boulder is to close to metropolitan areas to be a park focused only area. They need to try to steal business from cammelback.

I get it and assumed it would happen to mount snow and bb, but its happening at other resorts that already didn't emphasize parks as well which is a shame.
