Being from the Pacific Northwest, it may be a far travel for you. But if you get the opportunity, you should go to Whistler Blackcomb. If you're lucky enough to be up there while it is snowing, you'll get some great fresh powder runs.

Other than that, I just go to the local ones in Washington. Snoqualmie Pass, Stevens Pass, Mt Baker.

Been to Vail, CO. Love mountain, CO. Big Bear, CA. Mt. High, CA. and Mammoth, CA.

Vail and Mammoth are great. My pops did Park City, UT a lot and really liked it. Not sure how much its changed in the 20 years he hasn't been though

Utah is the only way to go. 7 resorts within 1 hour of the airport. Best snow on earth. The license plates say it so it cant be wrong

I don't snowboard anywhere. I was going to snowboard but it turns out that my pants fit properly, I have a job, and don't smoke pot.

Utah rocks!
