I guess Canyons in park city. but really go over to any other resort in the Salt Lake area and it will be more consistent and with better terrain.

if you're coming to park city for pow you're probably flying into salt lake city.  which means you should stay in salt lake and ski one of the other resorts on the other side of the hill from PC.  (alta, bird, brighton, solitude).  They consistently get more snow and have better terrain for it.  of course, if you're coming from the midwest/ east coast any of these places will be rad. 

for terrain in pc, both park city and the canyons have pretty good high elevation zones that can be fun.  check out 9990 at canyons and Jupiter bowl at pc.  but once again, relative to big cottonwood and lil cottonwood these are not the best you're going to find in utah.

also, the utah regional thread ( https://www.newschoolers.com/ns/forums/forumthreads/cat_id/45/ ) is very active an you'll probably get better answers posting (or moving this thread, mods?) over there.
