    Pass on breck. a-basin fun, laid back and cheaper. Loveland is cheaper also but hit midweek to avoid denver crowd. Might be a crap shoot anywhere you choose with the low snow totals this year. Keystone has night skiing, not a-basin. It'll be better than anything back here in the east!

    Alyeska is amazing, ski land was fun but Birch hill was the place to snowboard in the interior.

    Well, flying out to Denver tomorrow morning. Going to A-basin Friday and Breckenridge/Keystone Sat and Sun.

    Trying to decide on what kind of vechicle to rent. Can I get away w/ a front wd car, or should I get a SUV? Any rental advice?

    In my sig
    All depends on weather forecast. Then again weather can change in a second out there. FWD w/ chains is fine. But I would try a AWD or 4x4 only because the highway gets real steap both ways.

    I will be in Keystone Feb 20th-22nd. I'm flying out to Denver to visit my girlfriend for a few days so we are gonna do a few days up in Keystone. She has a ski pass for most of the resorts so I will be using her buddy passes so my rate at keystone will only be $55 a day. Plus we get two free night ski passes for Sat the 20th from the hotel we are staying in. We will be at the Inn @ Keystone.

    Snowboarding While its Snowing Lightly and weak winds (4mph), how would that be? I was planning on heading up to my local resort tomorrow but weatherman says its gonna snow a little and Ive never boarded while snowing. I figured as long as I keep warm and try not to eat too much shit, Ill be fine.

    Here's some pics from; The Canyons, Park City, and Snowbird.
    I liked all three, but snowbird had the best and most difficult runs IMO.

    Yep Everything in Little Cottonwood Canyon is killer. You should try Snow Basin and Solitude next time in UT.

    Zermatt, Switzerland. That was an awesome trip. My favorite on the East coast is Killington and Breckenridge on the West Coast.

    Which resort on Lake Tahoe would most consider the best? I think we're going there next.
