Keystone has a pretty good park rn, everything runs smooth 7/10

Breck is awesome rails, mid jumps 6/10

Vail is all around the best rn, two good jump lines and almost too many greased rails 9/10

Beaver creek, mid ass medium park with limited rails 3/10

I live in breck and refuse to ski there unless im going after work and it’s my only choice. Their park is such a joke these days. They have two parks but pretty much one because you can’t lap the other and they have about 12-13 features in the lappable park. Compared to how the park used to be and other parks in the area (copper and Breckenridge) the breck park crew should be arrested for crimes against skiing. Definitely worth the drive to go anywhere else.

It's crazy to think about how 10-12 years ago they consistently had some of the best parks in the country year after year. I will be skiing a couple days at breck next week for the first time in over 10 years and I'm not even going to bother stopping by the park

No they don't,

“It is my pet peeve and a myth that everyone perpetuates, (but) that is not true,” said Ken Kowynia, winter sports program manager for the Rocky Mountain region of the U.S. Forest Service. “We don’t specify that they close on a certain date, and that is true for all ski areas in the state.”

Everyone has heard different stories and that quote is news to me but I'm just saying that's why he said "fuck the forest"
 
just hit breck and vail. Vail jumps much better and like pc but only a two mid hitter. breck rails much better with a mini pipe that is pretty fun. Breck jumps pretty lippy if you're not used to that. Get ready to get corked. Vail has a dog shit lift that downloads for goobers and stops every three seconds at golden. Breck then has a dedicated park lift too that doesn't stop for nobody. Glad they are keeping the Freeway vibes but also RIP Freeway :(. Haven't been to Keystone.

However, on a pow day, Vail back bowls are undefeated. Especially off China Peak and then obviously Lovers Leap at Blue Sky Basin.

I guess pick what u want
