    Ive been to about 25 different hills and I have to say my favorites are Vail and Northstar at Tahoe. If you want pow though any place around Salt Lake will do.

    A few bolts are different.
    "Cloud 9" is located at Snow Basin in Ogden UT, slightly north of Salt lake. I was seriously in a dream riding there 2 years back. Wide open rolling hills with knee deep dry pow.

    Not local to me because there are no "real ski resorts" close to me, but when I go skiing I go to Monarch Resort outside of Salida, CO. It is the shit, great skiing, and a great town that doesn't feel like a shopping mall a.k.a. Vail, Copper....

    I was there this past Christmas. I'm used to the deep powder that Snowbasin and PowMow usually has to offer. Not so much on this last trip. Terrain was icy and there was not much snow.

    I narrowed my trip down to Breckenridge, Vail, or Copper? I'm a snowboarder, and I don't want to pay an arm and leg for lift tickets. As far as skill level, I'm intermediate to advanced. Thoughts between these pics?

    No, please tell me more. I just looked at the "well-known" ones that were close to Denver. I'm trying to stay reasonably close to Denver.

    What would you choose? I'm trying to get some of that West Coast powder that I hear so much about.

    That's wierd, because Arapahoe Basing(A-Basing) is a pretty well known place. I think there prices might be a little cheaper than Breck. Also, make sure you ask for a military discount. Check out Keystone as well. All in the general area.

    I recently got back from a trip to CO. Stayed in Breck (awesome town) and boarded Keystone. Lots of great long runs.

    Actually I just checked Keystone and Breck are 92 effin dollars. If your on a budget stick w/ A-basin for $65. Not including mil discount. I did breck 2 years ago and if I remember correct it was $75 with mil discount.
