Im bout to go up to Vermont for a couple days, which spot has the most fun park rn. I'm not that good so I just want some creative features and at least a couple of medium jumps. Which would you guys recommend?

as someone with little to no park skiing experience, I would suggest sugarbush because not only does it have creative features and medium jumps (so does Killington) but it also has a great community and a kewl mountain to shred if you wanna take some party laps.

i agree, sugarbush has a crazy good park it looks like, and the mtn itself is really sick. actual mtn wise, mt snow is pretty flat, and killy is all right but it's no sugarbush

Haven’t been to Carinthia this year but Peace Park at Killington is super fun and Dreammaker has some super legit jumps that you for sure are not going to get at bush

bush has a fun park that has a ton of options and there are a fuck ton of creative ways to ski it but if you are looking for bigger jumps I would go to Killy

I don't really care that much about having bigger jumps, I just want a jump that is big enough to practice my backflips, so I'm good with a more medium sized jump.

Carinthia had a fire setup last year but its best when it snows or gets slushy cause that park is steep so its mad scary when its icy.

Mt Ellen, the side where the park is, usually closes the end of March.

genuinly, okemo. they have been very solid all year. they have that t bar. the park is pretty good rn, with good sized jumps. and their rails are nice. not crowded at all this time of year bc all of the vacationers went back home to their mansions
