Deer Valley has the most snow, best park, and is really inexpensive and I would say the best time to go is July-August.

Shameful you didn't list wolf creek or telluride. Telluride is truely an experience of a lifetime that many people forget exists because its not 10 minutes from an interstate.

If you're looking for wide open stuff and some glades, wouldn't Silverton be a sick place to go? Also, you can take single heli laps if stuff inbounds gets skied out or if you see a line you want to hit that wouldn't be accessible otherwise.

im guessing you dont want to leave the states because of cost issues but if you can afford it you should look into to places in canada and europe if you really want to ski big mountains. although im sure jackson hole would be fun too.

1. Tahoe is the best place to ski other than the Alps.



4 and 6 are not bad but full of pretentious crusty ass 40 year olds. Tahoe is much chiller and more laid back being Cali and not Utah or Wyoming. 4 and 6 hardly suck mind you I like them.
