Ok guys, I'm the kinda guy that likes to travel a lot, and I just started to plan my next trip. So I thought, who best to ask then the thousands of people on NS.com to see what the best mountains in Canada and the US are. Then, after I make my list, ill tell you guys weather you were right about what mountain is the best.

Mt. bachelor is pretty super.  I guess Alta/utah stuff can be cool too.  different vibes though.  Jackson hole, obviously is sikt0r.

someplace warm.  a place where the beer flows like wine. where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano.  I'm talking about a little place called Assssspen.

....but try whistler.

Gnarliest in-bounds: Squaw

Best Backcountry: Jackson Hole

Beast Coast: Jay Peak VT(again, lots of rain, not worth it)

Lunch same price as lift ticket: Whistler

snowbird/alta for big mountain. yes, there's a lack of park scene, but there are natural jibs you can find.
whistler/blackcomb is also pretty sick. blackcomb glacier area is way sweet. ton of people though.
