The fall lines on the slopes seem awkward. The snow

In the back bowl gets soft due to sun. The slopes are chopped up into a bunch of shorter runs. But keep in mind that Park City and the Canyons is now connected so if staying at Park City, you can ski over to the Canyons with ease. I like a long, steep, wide groomer. Canyons, Deer Valley and Alta are loaded with those. And no snowboarding at DV or Alta. ** Edited by Spudnut at 1/27/2024, 11:25:37 AM

Bryce "Mountain", if you don't want to lose site of anyone on the "slopes"**
kjhokie • 01/27/24 05:16 PM ET
Telluride twenty times better scenery and not as crowded. Big sky is super
Vtskier1 • 01/27/24 04:05 PM ET
I second the Telluride recommendation

One thing I forgot to mention
Key West Hokie • 01/27/24 09:17 AM ET
Banff does not suck.
HOKIE MAGIC • 01/27/24 12:00 PM ET
Yep...Sunshine and Lake Louise are both great mountains**
Tuckahokie • 01/27/24 03:05 PM ET
We went a couple of summers ago. Most beautiful place I’ve ever been.
reestuart • 01/27/24 12:34 PM ET
Have you thought about Whistler, BC? Its on our bucket list.**
PWR2LZ • 01/27/24 08:20 AM ET
Been too many times where it’s rained at the base and can’t ski alpine due
Vtskier1 • 01/27/24 04:08 PM ET
Yes…but
Key West Hokie • 01/27/24 09:20 AM ET
Nice! We've never skied out West, only @Killington where my wife's family
PWR2LZ • 01/27/24 10:28 AM ET
From my experience late Dec/early Jan will be risky from a snow standpoint
tchokie • 01/27/24 09:37 AM ET
Also lovely. Visit Vancouver if you go there**
Va AandM • 01/27/24 09:01 AM ET

DonHo-kieHi • 01/27/24 11:36 AM ET
To add to the Tahoe list...if you can you must ski Kirkwood**
Tuckahokie • 01/27/24 11:43 AM ET
Park City**
Va AandM • 01/27/24 06:48 AM ET
This^^^. I don’t like Park City Mountain, but I love the Canyons and
Spudnut • 01/27/24 08:03 AM ET
I had the best "customer service" at Deer Valley
EDGEMAN • 01/27/24 04:54 PM ET

Spudnut • 01/27/24 08:51 PM ET
Nope, never skied that one.
EDGEMAN • 01/28/24 05:18 AM ET

Steamboat**
B777Fr8Dog • 01/27/24 05:15 AM ET
This is on my list…
Key West Hokie • 01/27/24 09:25 AM ET
You need to ski Steamboat at least once in your life.**
EDGEMAN • 01/27/24 04:55 PM ET
Better than Breck (longer runs, no flat run out at the bottom), and bigger
B777Fr8Dog • 01/27/24 11:33 AM ET
Better than both of those. Comperable to Snowmass.**
UTPr0sim • 01/27/24 11:20 AM ET
We love Snowmas. Both Steamboat and Snowmass have great “family” runs from
B777Fr8Dog • 01/27/24 03:08 PM ET
Ditto, We do like the heated streets in Snowmass!! Always do ski in/out
UTPr0sim • 01/27/24 04:52 PM ET
They will probably need a vehicle, but ski conditions are excellent
EDGEMAN • 01/27/24 07:52 AM ET
Free bus if can’t/dont get a car.**
