I'm spoiled because I live near world class skiing. So any of the local stuff: A-Basin, Winter Park, Mary Jane, Breckenridge, Copper, Vail, Loveland, Keystone. I sometimes feel a little under the weather on powder days just ask my boss.

i'm 20 minutes from Alta,
so i guess i'm spoiled too!!
 
LOL
 
but, i'm only 15 minutes from Snowbird....
15 minutes from Solitude......
25 minutes from Brighton.....
one hour from Snowbasin.....
one hour and 15 minutes from Powder Mountain.....
 
but my favorite is Alta.
 
30 minutes from the airport to the slopes for out of towners,
where else can you do that? (besides Telluride?)

alta has the best snow on earth.

look at the stats, then make up your mind.

Best powder I have ever encounterd was at Kirkwood, near Tahoe.

But my favourite ski areas are Zermatt, Davos/Klosters and St Anton/Leck.

Can't beat Zermatt. Over 2000 metres vertical and the chance to ski down into Italy for lunch. All in the shadow of the Mattahorn and Monte Rosa.

It's snowing again today in Summit County.
Don't know how much we're slated to get but when the sun comes out it will be another glorious powder day here.
 
Get yer "cough and sniffle" act on Rocky!
