Well as a Californian who wants to go on some trips next year and really take advantage of the season I've taken the plunge and gotten the Ikon Pass.

These are the Mountains I'm most interested in (that I've yet to go to) and I have already done so much research and I just can't really narrow it down further..

Already pretty set on a Banff trip to SkiBig3... So that kinda knocks out Revelstone...

Soo..

Steamboat
Big Sky
Alta (Been to Snowbird)
Aspen/Snowmass

Anyone been to multiple of these that can chime in? Looking for some nice on-piste terrain, powder runs, not too crazy off piste. Do some park runs but really won't be my focus at these places.

Steamboat is super mellow but great if you want mainly on-piste skiing.

Big sky is fucking massive and it would take weeks to ski everything. Lots of big lines and puckering steeps.

Was trying to leave it to places I haven't been. Planning at least two of three trips super early because got a large group and we live all over with different jobs so it's not super easy with last minute. I'll throw in some last minute trips tho myself for sure.
