East or west coast?

You mean next winter right? Or you live in Zermatt or Argentina ?

Don’t focus on one mountain, stay in a place like Dillon/silver Thorne and be 20 minutes from a basin, keystone, winter park, copper, Loveland pass, Montana and Utah have similar situations as well

This right here.

Tahoe has it too and Mt Hood has it (kinda) with the resorts on Hood. Many places have it but this is the move.

Those kinds of places make an east coast boy like me gitty, all our mountains are 4000-, maybe 1500’ vert and 4 hours apart, to have 20 minute access to 4+ resorts and more within an hour gave me A.D.D lol

West coast

What's your desired ratio of skiing:apres? Also do you have any mega passes or local passes with partner resorts?

I’d plan on going just for the skiing mainly. I dont have any mega or local passes

In that case, I'd go for some big gnarly remote resort. No crowds, sick terrain, best opportunity to ski pow. Red Mountain up in BC is where my buddies and I are planning to go this winter if covid regulations loosen up. Alyeska, Crested Butte, Mammoth, Big Sky, etc. are all in-country and on my bucket list too.

Or, I second what some other users are suggesting. Pick a hub area like Tahoe or SLC and hit up a few different resorts to get a taste of everything. If you went to Tahoe, you would have a killer time at Kirkwood, Squaw, Alpine, Heavenly, and more

Honestly, it's the Ikon trip through Utah. Being able to hit the cottonwoods for 15-20 days on one pass is pretty great value.

Buy one. Youll save a ton of money if you ski more than a few days on the trip. Better to spend 700 now than 150-200 a day on the trip

Left field answer: Indy pass through Idaho. Pass is super cheap and gets you two days at some pretty good resorts, pretty much the whole state except Schweitzer and Bogus I think. Also, less crowds.

But winters not potato season, who wants to go to Idaho when it’s not potato season, when is potato season anyway, I like potatoes

I recommend this magical place on the east coast called 7springs it has a strip mall for a lodge and rain for snowmaking. It really truely represents the heart of America

Indy pass actually has some super sick resorts

Aaah yes Jackson’s lonely red headed step bro, great place, Jackson attracts the crowds and this place goes less known and just as dope

Indy Pass is slept on for sure. Bummed the prices went up for next season.

went back and looked and the list of resorts is a lot better than I remembered. I didn’t know powder mountain was on it.

yeah, they added mountains recently and the price is going up again for this coming season. but it's still far and away the best value pass i'm aware of

This gave me a good chuckle @SavageBiff

Most of this seasons potatoes are planted by now or should be, being watered through the summer then killed around the first to mid part of September. Harvest is usually the end of September through early October trying to beat the frost before they are ruined. I like potatoes too. Worked in them for many years, went from a young boy picking rock out of the field by hand to moving irrigation pipe through them to planting them to doing everything required to harvest them and store them. Im no expert in them but I have done my time. Who the fuck wants to go to Idaho and ski when there are fields and fields of potaoes!LOL

BigPurpleSkiSuitHonestly, it's the Ikon trip through Utah. Being able to hit the cottonwoods for 15-20 days on one pass is pretty great value.

hahahahaha. Everyone in utah is so (understandably) salty about the LCC / BCC traffic / lines situation but then you look at it and are like holy fuck that is the deal of a lifetime. You are telling me I can ski the best snow and best terrain at 6 resorts for 15-20 days for $550? Also lodging is cheap if you are willing to drive a bit. And then you also have an ikon pass for whatever other place you want to ruin.

Im salty as fuck when you have an hour long liftline on a pow day but those are far and few
