Avalanches on the east coast are much more rare and all in bounds avalanche zones are controlled/tested by ski patrol at every resort, its a little different in america.

So yeah, in the alps every inbound zone is tested every day by guides and a speciell department of the ski patrol and in some countries here in Europe we have laws regarding that the resort must do this or else they will be closed down.

In the alps it is extremely easy though to get out of the inbound and into the real danger zones.

Thats why you might want to stay inbound on a pow day in Europe.
 
i bring up both sets of skis and do a bit of both i like the soft landings in the park and i also like the natural stuff but it can get a bit hot in my gear

Being from the East Coast this was always my question. Two years ago though i was at steamboat in colorado and we got like 23" of snow in a 24-36 hour time period. Needless to say i was fucking stoked and didnt ride the park all day, but only because the terrain there was big enough that you could actually experience the snow. However, at my mountain in CT with a 500 ft vertical, theres no where to enjoy the powder because the steepest trail is like a 60 degree slope if that and theyre miniscule. nobody bothers going outside the park, its more beneficial to have a day of pain free falls than ride some bullshit trail regardless if it has 2" of fresh or 12".

nope just bad at skiing.
 
as much as bluebird laps in a soft park are great, there really is nothing better than dropping into a line of blower fresh pow and getting lost in the whiteroom. no park trick will ever give you a feeling like that.
