Replying to Where to spend a whole winter in north america?

Hi guys,
after my final exams i want to go for half a year to northamerica, to work and ski there. Im rom germany, 1 years old and my english skills arent too bad (no huuuge language barriers). At first i want to know from you, what a nice place will be to stay. Im not a 100% park rat. I am 60% in parks and 40% in backcountry. So i think that the american east coast (quebec, vermont, maine etc.) isnt too great for backcountry skiing. but thats just what i heard from ppl i asked here in Germany ;)

If you have a good ideas for a nice place and what the best time is to go, pls write it.

Second: What is a nice job in a ski resort that still gives me enough chances to enjoy the mountains.

P.S.: Getting a Holiday Visa for Canada is way easier for me, because of realtives in Sasquetchqifjesecevesomething, that can help me.

greets
