Well you'll have quite a few to choose from. Afton, Wild mountain, trollhaugen, and hyland hills are all within 50 minutes of the cities and offer decent (for the midwest anyway) skiing.

Personally i would recommend Hylands if you're into park skiing. Its got tons of jibs, the best jumps in the cities, and its closer than the others.
