Heading out to Uah for the first time this season to ski for a few days. Just wonder what you guys thought the best resorts are for skiing powder?

i live in slc.
you wont go wrong at any of the above resorts. dont go to pc, canyons, or deer valley if you are strictly trying to ski pow/side country/ fun in bounds terrain. the above resorts have all of those things.
if you dont care about park at all, go to alta or solitude. if you are going to want to ski some fun rails and as well as rad terrain. the bird is def worth it too, but i dont know why that kid said it's cheap, alta and tude's tickets are cheaper. by like 10-20 bucks.

Brighton is def a safe bet all around. Great pow stashes and fun park features.
With their new day passes you can preload your ticket online so you don't need to hang in lines waiting for tickets. You'll have to get the pass the first day, but then you can just use that pass/card they give you. I think other mountains do this also, but I'm not certain.
LCC gets a hell of a lot of snow though. If it Pow's be ready to go up early, there's only one way in and out of the resorts up there.

If you are okay with going a bit north of SLC give Snowbasin a go. Sweet Terrain and a park.

What? Is that a joke?
Thats like comparing a fast food burger to the local brew pub. Moclasalsa/hectors is good but its cheap for a reason, lone star is very high quality and fucking so good.
