Looking for Advice - Headed to Utah in March

Headed out to Park City and Salt Lake in early March. Given 7, 8, and 9 days of skiing, how would you recommend splitting days up between the mountains out there? We're likely looking at Snowbird/Alta, Brighton, Solitude, Powder Mountain, The Canyons, and PCMR (skipping Deer Valley because we are 2 snowboarders + 2 skiers, and the skiers can ski Alta and meet the boarders at Snowbird).

I was thinking something like this for 9 days, but don't know how to split it up for less:
4 Alta/Snowbird 1 Powder Mountain 1 Solitude 1 PCMR 1 Canyons 1 Brighton

Thoughts?

Well aware, as noted above. We'll probably do mornings at Alta and meet them at Snowbird.

I'd say spend your first 5 or 6 days going to different resorts then your last 2-3 days going to your favorite. This is all dependent on snow. If its sunny and nice, default to canyons/pcmr then brighton, then snowbird, etc. Obviously if its snowing stick to BBC or LLC or you could even head north to powmow if they got more snow, etc.

Snowbird/Alta every day if it's dumping. Pow Mow if you want to get the goods a while after a storm. I've never had luck skiing anything in the park city area, canyons is fun but it can be very warm there in march.

I'd stay on the West facing part of the Wasatch like Big and Little Cottonwood.
