So i believe i will be skiing vail 2 days and copper 1 day, the last day is a toss up between keystone and breck. I would consider myself an intermediate skier(best trick is a rodeo 5) which has a better intermediate park? also does vail have any good backcountry? Also im from the ice coast so im used to falling onto ice, how are the landings of jumps out west?

yes vail has back country but it is more side country which u are looking for. Don't go under ropes at vail unless u know the terrain which you won't. Avalanches happen hear and people die. enjoy the end bounds terrain. The jumps at both breck and key are decent. medium line is 30-40 and big like 60+ choose what ever you want. play it safe enjoy and ask in the park if you don't know the speed so you don't fuck urself up.
