ummm I suggest you get into longboarding but umm for skiing I think their is a ski area / skiable terrain in flagstaff I believe bu yeah your best bet is probably gonna be weekend tripsd and such to tahoe. you should get some snow from an ice rink there one day and work really fast to be the only person on that campus to grease some rails. It'll confuse the shit outta those AZ kids

haha tahoe year right it's like 16 hour drive away probably more. I'd say your best bet is taos NM.

toas is good skiing but no park, but i had a friend that went to asu and he got in a fight with a bouncer and somehow the boxer knocked him out and his head went into a curb and fucked him up bad, hes been in the hospitol for like a year now, had to have brain surgury , all his memory is fucked, so watch out for bouncers

Taos from Phoenix is a long ass drive. I'm not sure how close big bear and all those resorts are but L.A. is pretty far too. There is a resort by Flagstaff and Mt. Lemmon is down by Tucson (somebody already said that.) There are also a few small ass hills by Las Vegas, in which case size shouldn't matter cause... well you're right by Vegas

arizona snowbowl- OK, college town atmosphere
sunrise ski resort- ok, located on the reservation.
Mt. Lemmon - novelty
in arizona.

Taos- New mexico- fun

Purgatory (DMR)- Durango Colorado- fun except cat tracks.
Wolf Creek- Pagosa springs Colorado- ?
Telluride- colorado- sweet!

Utah: all the salt lake resorts. Great skiing, sluggish nightlife.
I haven't tried bryce canyon in souther Utah

Try for a cheap flight to RENO, and ski tahoe resorts- check casino packages.

check the Phoenix/
asu ski clubs to do some group travel.

Use the weak canadian dollar to parlay a holiday trip to whistler- Presidents day or Mlk day.

good luck,
