Second choice, Powderking bc canada Snowboarding in chest deep powder almost any day of the season. All time favorite is Apex mountain, penticton BC. Lived there for a season in 2002 and always wanted to go back.

The older I get the smaller the ski slopes I enjoy- not as much abuse on the body, I guess.

I used to ski Keystone and Winter Park a lot, but now I prefer Monarch and Loveland.

I have skied in Switzerland once, but I have to say Colorado skiing beat that by a long shot.

Im only 27 and can barely handle the abuse skiing puts on the body. Haha! If I did it everyday it'd probably be a different story. Every few years doesn't cut it!
