some people ask dumn questions like this one, mammoth is clearly the answer here, one of the biggest snow packs in the continent, the best park on the continent, and the last new years they've gotten like 10 feet in two days each time. and u can ride with me, which is a privilege on its own, lol

not to hijack the thread or anything, but my dad and I were planning a similar trip.  we were debating going to utah and jackson or colorado.

1) fly into slc, hit up some of the close by mountains for 3-4 days.  then drive up to jackson hole and stay with my aunt and ski there for 3 days.

2) fly into denver and drive out and do vail, aspen, breckenridge, crested butte, copper, and another mountain I forget.

What would be the better trip?
