I was talking about "groomers" as in the grooming crew. Not the actual equipment. BCparkboy mentioned that they only have one "groomer" that knows how to groom the park. Also, you may have been "listed" in 2 mags, but you are NEVER featured. MC is almost always featured whenever it comes to park rankings. ooooh Viva La Bam? Thats because Bam lives near BC! It has nothing do to with terrain parks. Im very proud of you. You are boasting about hosting ho-hum snowboarding events. you are wrong. Mount hood builds their own. Heavenly builds their own. Day Franzen owns railsbuilders.com and also builds the park at heavenly. Vail Builds their own. Bear Creek = needs to buy them

one photo? thats nothing. It was a shot that a snowboarder mailed into to transworld and incorrectly labled it as MC. It was transworlds fault, not MC's. Plus that Srail is super ghetto. Mc's is solid.

bla bla....BCparkkid is full of himself and its interesting fun to prove him wrong. Its completely unbelievable for him to say that his park crew (aka a crew that NOONE has ever heard of in the industry) is comparable to that of "upper level" resorts. YET, as GOOD as they are NO mags features Bear Creek, no mags have any photos (except ONE time), no mags rank them as being worth anything in park review, NO promoters host any bigtime events in their park. WHY? Seriously, WHY? Because BCs parks is "so-so" at best. Average. If it were ANYTHING special, it would be getting more national recognition like MC has for years. ! So I guess in his head his crew rocks! Pure comedy! Also, didnt someone post that Bear Creek actually has to buy some of their rails? No reputable resort "buys" rails. They build em. All of em.

you guys only work with one "groomer"? That says it all. MC's park crew ARE the park groomers has 4 park groomers and all of them have 5+ years of park experience. So how can you compare yourself to "uppler level" resorts when you can't even compare with MC? Why don't you stop with the childish insults and answer the questions this time. You probaly won't because you know you are wrong.

none. they are all lame for sure.

another funny thing... you guys think that the jiblab sucks yet it looks like you guys are copying the box design that was first developed by the jiblab guys. ie box/rail. Thats gotta hurt.

bla bla bla..you guys are fools and the best part about it?>>> you know you are. I've already made my points, its obvious you guys are afraid to face the truth. Deal with it, BC sucks! Oh yea, BCparkdork....the day you guys learn how to build a park is the day you can start spraying shit from your mouth...Until then, shut it cuz you suck... ps. i just seen the latest transworld and there was like 10 photos of mountain creek in it......Hmmmm.. how many photos of bear creek? you lose!

Are you on drugs? Every aspect of MC's park BLOWS Bears away. How many times do we have to go over this!>>!>!!???? -MC has the Jiblab....ie some of the best jibs in the country. The jibs at Bear Creek look like a couple of amatuers from metal class built them. -MC knows how to setup jibs. Bear does not. Bear Creeks park is like a park you would see 5 years ago. Very oldschool! -Variety. MC has every jib imaginable and MULTIPLEs of some. Bear Creek has the basics -Amount of features. MC has sooo many more features its not even comparable -Pipe. Does Bear Creek even have a pipe? -Events - MC is hosting a Grand Prix event!!!!! That says it all!!!! whats the most prestigous event that Bear hosts? hmmmm a USASA??? wooop deee dooooo!!! Also, MC was chosen to host this years Transworld Trans-Am and other sick events. WHY? because their park is the best in the area. ALL you little PA whiners can keep claiming about Bear Creek but we all know in the back of your minds you KNOW that MC blows it away. ........ losers. Oh yea...Isnt Bear only 500vertical feet total? Umm correct me if im wrong, but more than one of MC's parks have DOUBLE the vertical of BEars entire mountain!!! Comparing Bear Creek to Mountain Creek is like comparing Mountain Creek to Whistler!!!!! ie. Not even in the same league!!!

DUDE...Do you think I care if any of you like me? NOOOOOOO You people are ignorant. If you ride during the midweek, Mountain Creek is not overcrowded and its got a park that Bear Creek only DREAMS of building. No matter what you say, and how many times you keep claming it, the REAL riders know that MC is worlds better than Bear.

Yep. You are right. To me its a waste to go to Bear Creek when I can easily drive an extra 1/2 hour and get to Mountain Creek. Mountain Creeks park has Bear Creeks park beat in every possible way. Design, flow, variety, difficulty, # of features, grooming, setup...you name it! The only advantage to Bear Creek is that its less crowded on the weekends which doesnt matter to me because only idiots ride on the weekend, everyplace is crowded. Its an easy decision. THe only people that should be going to Bear Creek is the people who don't drive or cant afford gas. Or beginner park riders.

I've never seen a 'Mountain Creek' ad in Transworld, Snowboarder or any other mag for that matter. This theory doesnt hold any weight. Hunter advertises in those mags and you DONT see Hunter in them! Killington advertises and Killingtons park isnt ranked. Also, the resort guide is based on reader reviews, not editors choice.

Not any more. The new lodge opens this winter. I also found this tidbit: http://www.firsttracksonline.com/news/stor...8079996324.shtm

You didnt answer the question. Why wasn't Bear featured? hmmmmmm. Beginners may like Bear better. But that certainly doesnt mean its a "better park". MC overall has the best park in the mid atlantic, argueably the east. Care to answer the question? How could Transworld be so bold to OVERLOOK and to not mention the Terrain Park Superpower known as Bear Creek?

Bear setup is oldschool. MC sets their stuff up like the west coast resorts. Setting jibs up with big gaps is not really "in" these days. Look at resorts Like Bear, Ca , Park City and Mammoth. Almost everything is streetstyle. This setup makes riders better. You need to OLLY to get on a rail like skating. Personally, other than this message board Ive NEVER met anyone that thinks Bear is better. Im sorry, I just dont think you guys in PA have a clue. Answer one question. Transworld Resort Guide lists and features the best parks in the country... Mountain Creek was featured. Bear wasnt even mentioned. Is this because Transworld doesnt have a clue and you guys are right?

Bear may have a few dedicated park guys...but Mountain Creek has like 30! Seriously. Its cool that you dig your little local riding spot, but there WERE a few people on this board CLAIMING its better than MC. TO THOSE of you claiming this, you really must be dilusional. SORRY!!!! Its ok to have your own opinion, but at least admit your ignorant. Bear Creeks total skiable/rideable acreage is only 90 acres. Mountain Creeks parks are 65 acres! BY SIZE alone you can't even compare the 2 resorts. MC has bear beat on all fronts. Parks - MC beats in variety, # of features, innovation, flow, you name it. You just cant compare Events - MC has the Grand Prix, Peanut Butter and Rail Jam and the only east coast Transworld Trans Am Superpipe - Does Bear even have a regular pipe? Verticle - MC is double the vertical Rankings - Every year Transworld, Snowboarder, Freeskier all rank MC as one of the best parks in the country. Does Bear Creek event get mentioned? I just got the new Transworld Resort guide and they DONT even mention bear. Still think Bear is better? Seriously...Pride in your local riding spot is cool. But don't spam all these message boards with false-hype. The day that Bear Creek beats MC in Parks is the day that MC gets hit by an avalanche. NOT HAPPENING!

Head of the class? What class? Pennsylvania? You guys can hype up yourselves up all you want, but theres no way you are in the same league as mountain creek.

A thing of beauty? What are you smoking? Based on the photos you've posted. Its more like good try for a backyard "bob villa" park, but its not the real deal. Not even close. Your jibs =

Boxes at resorts have metal frames, not wood.

Its cool that you are super stoked on learning to build parks, but the point i was trying to make is that you really have no experience. Building wooden features in the back of your house isnt really helping you. No resort builds thier stuff out of wood. Also, maybe im confused, but don't resorts use snowcats? Do you know how to drive one ? Maybe once you start your internships it will be a different story, but for right now you are just like the rest of us with crappy homeade features in their backyards. Don't act all high and might because you built a few odd loooking wooden features, they are not as great as you think they are.

Yea. He's now employed by one of the shittiest resorts in the east! Why didnt he just apply at MC? Oh yea, thats right. He's never built a park before.

You cant have an opinion! You've never even been there! You have no idea. How old are you 10?

Huh? Its DOUBLE the vertical of Bear. Get it? Bear Creek X 2. I'm not saying MC is BIG, I'm just pointing out how tiny Bear actually is.

Keyword = Trying Rails like that are circuslike. And why are they trying to build that when its already been done before? Squaw valley has one, Timberline had one. Its not really anything that great. I just went on Bear Creeks website and noticed that they only have 500vertical feet? You are kidding right? I mean seriously, MC is small enough...you can't tell me that some tiny resort with 500ft of vertical is going to dethrone them. Mountain Creeks Parks alone are double the vertical.

Lets be friends! I agree as a resort, Mountain Creek has its downfalls. I was speaking specifically about the park. You don't see resorts like Bear Creek or Camelback or Shawnee hosting Olympic qualifiers of Grand Prix Events. And you dont see them showing up in magazine top-10 park rankings. MC has. Anyone ever shoot fire out of their ass?

Histerical. Bear Creek had some decent jibs last year but they have no idea how to set them up. Their park doesnt flow at all. And the place is tiny. Mountain Creek is hosting the Olympic qualifiers this year and i heard they are investing a ton of money in the park. Bear Creek doesnt have enough experience to overtake MC. they do a good job for what they have, but it really isnt that great. Isnt there a thread about them having to buy their rails? MC has been been building their own rails for years and many consider them one of the best. period. Its cool to see another resort stepping it up, i just think they are outclassed.
