Of all the in bounds terrain in this part of colorado, I have found no place with better dropable cliffs than the beav- end of story. I've been skiing Vail for most of my life, and there are some good cliffs around but the landings on the bigger cliffs there have to be JUST right to drop them- lots of times they are too flat/blown off by wind. WP has some good one, but imo the beav is a playground for dropping cliffs.

Period. End of question. If you are know where you are going in Beaver, they have the sickest backcountry/big mountain type riding of any of these places.

Unless you live in edwards... But seriously the terrain at Beav is way steeper than Vail. Vail is sick, but Beav is a nice change of pace.

haha you're great. But seriously, Beaver Creek is way underated. And Vail gets so tracked out sometimes it's impossible to find decent fresh.

hmm you sure? Been skiing Vail my whole life, the big open bowls which are what I want to ski always get mad tracked. It could just be bad luck though, I never seem to get the prime days.

Fuck you dude, Vail has so much more shit to drop with sick ass landings. You just cant be a fucking dumb ass and know where to go. Plus the cliff texture in Vail is so much better than Beve. Why dont you man up and hit some real cliffs you fuckin bitch, get a life and ski for real. Quit livin with your fuckin mom and get a fuckin life dude. When you go and hit some real cliffs then come and talk to me. And I dont mean some pussy ass 15 footer. FUCK YOU!!!!!

agreed, those big bowls are skiied out real quick, but you can still have great snow there 2-3 days after just because its so big. Most of the areas out near blue sky hold snow for days and days after though because they are protected from the sun. i like vail's stuff way better than the beav's. i just do.
