I'm having an issue with deciding which. Alta/snowbird in February or Mount Hood in the summer. Both are coming out of my pocket and flights cost about the same. Lodging is free at alta/snowbird but at hood isn't. Hood guarenteed that I'm on snow everyday I want, Alta/snowbird not guarenteed. Both week and 1 1/2 weeks. I'm leaning towards alta/snowbird but I really can't decide. Thanks

You will actually get to ski good snow at snowbird/alta and if you feel like hitting some park then go hit PC for a day.

hood in the summer is one of my favorite times of the year. get a big crew together, camp out at the airstrip, and youll have a good time.

i would probably choose hood in the summer just because summer is far away from ski season so skiing for like a week in the summer would be sooo sick. you will most likely look forward to it more and for longer so you'll be that much more excited when you finally do ski.
unless where you live gets shit for snow this winter and you need to go to utah in order to ski good snow.
