Replying to U of Utah VS Montana State. Help me make a decision.

Off to college next year at one of these schools but I still can't decide which one. Im looking to study Engineering or Geology. I know a lot about both schools but any experiences you've had there, good or bad would be very helpful. Give me some pros and cons of each one. I have skied at a lot of resorts near both schools and would have to say Utah beats Montana in the skiing department. I am from Minnesota so I ski mostly park but if I started skiing all mountain and backcounty Montana skiing wouldn't be too bad. I like all outdoor stuff too, hiking, camping, rock climbing,etc.. So besides skiing what are the actual schools like. Academics? Difficulty? Party Scene? Girls? Vibes? People? Outdoor stuff? weather? city vs town? etc. Anything Helps +k for good answers. Thanks!
