Replying to Where to move....

So i really wanna move so i can get more involved with the ski community and get outta the area im in now. I need some help figuring out where though. I would like somewhere with year round skiing (i know its not gunna be 12 months a year its like 10 or something you get the point), lots of cool shit to do around but not ridiculously far away, powder, and an area where its still kinda cheap.

I was thinking about areas like hood, whistler, etc but i need help from NSers who know these areas. Thank you and any help is much appriecated.
