Alright, so I'm from the East coast... Loon Mountain if your the kind of person that wants specifics. And me and a couple of friends flew out west to kill it for a week.

So basically I'm just looking for some sick drops or spots to check out when I'm around here. any help would be sick if ya know the area

thanks

Blue sky basin is the best section of vail, fun cliffs off lovers leap, great trees, and you can always find fresh snow through the backcountry gate

The bowls are also a lot of fun if they're not crusty (which they probably are now because it was warm on Friday).

All over the bowls and blue sky, prima cornice, right under chair 4. if theres new snow, you cant go wrong on the back side.

if you can make it over to beaver creek there might be some shorter lift lines and i reccomend going to the west of the birds of prey part of the mountain. there are just sick tree runs with some good drops.

blue sky is the shit though

your gunna want to go in and around chair 11
south rim, north rim, prima cornice

there is also some nice skiing on the front side chutes
that would be all of the trees east of the vista bahn

otherwise blue sky basin and the back bowls are always good

i would recommend just going everywhere cause there is so much to find
