I always hear A-Bay has nice backcountry terrain. Keystone is just down the road too.

imo do NOT go to a basin there is absolutely no snow there right now and it just makes everything shitty, keystone is really dope for park right now

also if you really want to go to a place like a basin i actually prefer loveland, more terrain, no crowds and the best atmosphere youll find, its just as close as breck key or basin to copper

Loveland is crap. Don't go there, so many rocks and no coverage. The snow sucks. ;)

I went there last season on a pow day. It was sick.

Take what you can get, guys. Don't complain. It's how Mother Nature keeps our feet on the ground.

Keystone is probably best for a day trip since you will want to be able to hot lap wherever you go.

We really do. Maybe I'll start using italics when I want to be sarcastic.
