of all the places ive been id say copper mountain is the best. Its all natural they never did anything to it. the glades are just perfect you can go so fast on them. Other than that i think steamboat was pretty good. Are the trees good in whistler? cept id be scared going treeskiing in whistler with grizzly bears

Steamboat hands down.  Catch it on a powder day and there is nothing like it.

Oh you're gonna need more than 2 or 3 days haha.  I had 3 days in February, hadn't snowed in about 2 weeks, staggered rain in between, over all shitty weather all before I went up.  Just cloudy and a bit of sun teh days I was there.  I still found upwards of 18 inches in some spots.  Just gotta looks where no one else goes.  I did the same run all day for 3 days (well, not all day, but like 90% of each day) of sick pow in the trees and down through the park in the same run.  Garuntee it was probably the only spot with  "fresh" snow on the mountain but idk how no one had found it yet.  I'll tell you a good place to go (not my secret place) when the pow has been slashed.  Take the tram, go down green Beret and cut into the woods on the right.  You should be able to find some good stuff in there (cuts into Valhala).  Jay's glades are unbelievable with fresh pow though.

I've gotta say that w/ the Angel Peak expansion, I think 49 is going to have some pretty good new treeskiing lines. But yeah, Schweitzer (#3 in the country) and Red are definitely up there.

The burn area in Sun Valley is a blast when the snow is good. Other than that SV doesn't have a whole lot to offer, but you make your own fun and get creative.
