going up to one of the 3 on sundayhow are the parks looking, how are the conditions and how is the rest of the mountain (steeps, glades etc.)

 
steeps and glades are nonexistent in the 3 you mentioned...

If you go on the sites , you can find out all the info you need, I have a season pass to Belleayre cause they are pretty close, but then again all 3 mtns are within a 30min drive. Fridays is like $20 lift tickets (I think) at Belleayre, so if you have the choice do that first. I heard that Hunters terrain park is pretty good, heres their blog:

Windham has a big air bag which Ive been dying to hit, $10 for the day is pretty good:

Windham also has night skiing...dont know how that is though ($45 for 2-8pm, or $37 from 4-8pm)

Back to Belleayre, its far from a terrain park, with small jibs and 2 jumps that is squeezed onto a run next to the lift, so Id bet on Hunter/Windham for park. Belleayre never really has lift lines though, which is why I like going there..Not crowded at all
 
When I went on a Saturday it was a little crowded, so I think Sunday it wont be too crowded since people usually save Sat for ski day and Sunday for travel/going home day ...At least thats what I do
 
I'd assume you already went to one of them but if you still have the option, go to hunter without question... MUCH better park than both windham and hunter and much better terrain than windham. Belleayre's terrain is at least somewhat comprable. However belleayre's park sucks really bad. Belleayre doesn't get as crowded as the other two but I would still definetely recommend hunter
 
yea i went to windham the park was pretty awful and the other terrain was alright but hats off to them for making enough snow to cover most of the mountain
 
i'm taking a trip out there at the end of February, mix it up a little. How is it looking?
 
same goes for me unfortunately, it will be nice to mix it up a little though from my home mountain
 
how is belleayre? do they have a park? Im going up to a friends house near there this weekend and figured I would ski a day.
 
hunter is my home mountain. they have two pretty cool jumps. a couple rails, a couple boxes, and the rest are features with corrugated tubes. i'm not a fan of tubes, the park crew is all snowboarders so that's why they set the park that way. overall, they've done a good a pretty good job with what they have.
 
yeah it was really awesome, and i thought it was going to rain hahah. except i did get a concussion from trying to future spin off that tiny jump.
