almost nailed it ive been too most of the resorts latley and it throw it in this order...

Park:
3 way tie for first Bo-real, squaw(its the best its been in years and its fucking sick) or alpine. Alpine has alot of nice jumps not too many jib/rails, squaw and boreal both have a nice balance.
then in 4th northstar, not super impressed this year but better then last.

If theres powder then yeah Squaw kirkwood and alpine... But be ware squaw gets skied FAST amazzzing snow and terrain but it dossent last long.
