just got accepted to Fort Lewis college in Durango, what’s the terrain like at purgatory? I seems like they have good parks but at the moment I’m more into all mountain. From pictures it doesn’t look very steep, will I just have to become a park rat?

Where do you ski now? What resorts are you most familiar?

Alpine Meadows and Squaw, I'm not expecting anything like that

Purg's small but silverton is right down the road and Telluride's a couple hours away.

Wolfcreek is going to be your closest "steep" Mountain resort. I went there alot as a kid and a few times in College and if I remember right they dont even have a park.
