I'm coming out to SLC in january for school.

WHAT MOUNTAIN? Coming from maine, so i'm over the family resort type deal.

What has the best park? how about details about crowds? and you have to factor in Glades (i need/love them) and there has to be a decent back country.

So far i've looked at Brighton, Park City, the Canyons. what else is there. i need atleast some park to ride because i gotta hit rails, so alta and the bird are out of the question. i want good steeps too. throw out the good locals type information too

thankssssssssssss

Brighton for being well rounded, park and lines/ pow.  PC for the best park/ park scene.  both mountains will make your head explode.

If you want a decent park, lots of powder, good steeps, low crowds, cliffs and decent trees the only choice is Brighton. The only better resort IMO for backcountry access would be Alta.

Soli> AltaBird when it comes to BC access. Otherwise I agree.
