Replying to Best place to live after college? (for skiing)

I'm thinking about where i want to live after i graduate.  It will have to be somewhere with awesome powder and great skiing.  However, the catch is that I also need a job, and I want to be remotely close to a city, and i don't want to live like 30 miles from a gas station or super market.

Let me know where you live, distance to mountain, nearest city, size of town you live in and maybe a few pics.

Thanks
