I live in Utah so here is a list of resorts that I have been to here. Brighton, Park City, Canyons, Snowbird, Solitude, and Brian Head. Outside of Utah I have been to Lake Tahoe and the resorts there, Big Bear, Aspen, the Jackson Hole resorts, and Whistler.

My favorite resort that I have been to is a toss up between the Jackson Hole resorts and Whistler. I lucked out and picked the right week to go to Jackson Hole because every night it snowed like a foot and half so every day was deep and the resorts were so steep that is was awesome. Whistler is just huge and you don't have to ride the same trail twice.

I am from Utah so when you get a big powder day here it is unbeatable most of the time. I just love to snowboard.
Turoa, Mt Ruapehu, North Island, New Zealand.
- love the fact that it is in the middle of the island with no other mt's at all, just flat ground!!
- great terrain, awesome snow on a good day!! and summer snowboarding when there is still snow!!
- just had my first weekend of the season, and it rocked - blue skies and fresh snow. It's what life is all about - 'good times with good people'!!

Coronet Peak, Queenstown, South Island, New Zealand.
- good on a powder day, 'concrete peak' after a clear night.
- awesome night skiing mixed in with some mulled wine and only 25 minutes from the best party town in NZ

Remarkables, Queenstown, South Island, New Zealand
- awesome 'home run' on powder days, gorgeous views of Lake Wakatipu when you hike to the top.

Treble Cone, Wanaka, South Island, New Zealand
- absolutely wicked, the longest runs in NZ, huge natural half pipes, awesome views, hot boys etc what more can you ask for!! Oh and powder you get stuck in, and can't get out of!!
