We are trying to expand our options this year outside of I-70 resorts (Breck, Keystone, Vail...)  We want a mountain that offers most types of skiing...park, trees, cliffs...  How do these look?  Any opinions of these resorts?

UTAH
  Snowbird
  Alta
  PC

CALI/NEVADA
  Heavenly
  Kirkwood
  Squaw

WYOMING
  Jackson Hole

COLORADO
  Crested Butte

SWITZERLAND
  Verbier


What is the best out of these places in terms of what I am looking for?

why did you just tack on verbier at the end? are you realistically looking at going to europe? if so, now is definately the time to do it as the snow this season is killer. figure out more precisely what you want and hit me with a pm (if you wanna think about europe) :)

Depends on when your going dont come out to cali/nevada now we dont have much snow yet but later this year it will be sick.   Kirkwood is one of my all time favorite resorts when it has snow of course.
