In My last thread for those who havent seen it, i asked where i should go for a first trip out west and without a doubt the majority said utah or salt lake city, so i was just wondering where i should stay or a couple of mountains to be sure to hit

visit as many as you can in the time your here. i'd recommend every place except deer valley. so thats park city, canyons (also in the town of park city), brighton, solitude, alta (no snowboarding), and snowbird. brighton and solitude have the least crowds. all the others can get fairly busy on the weekends.
pc has ill parks im sure you know. people hate canyons park but its way longer than pc's and i thought it was fun. brighton has endless minigolf and bigger hike/skin-to lines. solitude is small but has good/steep terrain plenty of cliffs. snowbird and alta are sick. bird has crazy vertical and both have endless terrain if you know where your traversing to.
idk where your from but out here if the trail is roped off, its closed. stay with a buddy in pow and stay in bounds if you dont know what your doing. bring your camera and have fun its something else

Alta, Canyons, Brighton! But seriously just shred Alta. It's amazing!

So you needed to create another one?
I heard Searchbar has the best overall terrain.

Alta for sure I stayed at the gold miners daughter lodge and the food was great and all that stuff. Plus you can just ride over to snowbird if you want some park stuff

The wave and more on Road to Provo is a park in itself
