Taos Ski Valley, NM.... would be my vote.

 

Alyeska - Girwood,Alaska

 

China peak near Fresno Ca. If we are not in Mammoth Mountain Ca

 

Snowbird Solitude and Alta

That order, and they are all next to each other

 

Easy. Telluride. Hands down.

 

Sierra at tahoe/S. Lake Tahoe

 

Vail is the best. Vail was formed by Texans run out of Aspen or so the legend goes.

 

Recently did 4 days at heavenly and one day at kirkwood. Kirkwood had the deepest powder but I have always been partial to heavenly, especially the Nevada side. Motts canyon is always challenging. Many many tree runs. Any day on the slopes at any resort is always better than working or sitting at home.

 

I really would like to get good at snowboarding. It looks like fun. I tried it once and got reminded of how falling continuously is literally a pain in the rear.

 

Alta, Utah.

Like it says on my plate . . . "Greatest Snow on Earth!"
