I'd look at the University of Utah. I don't think any city has more quality resort and backcountry offerings.

You might want to consider the University of Alaska at Anchorage. Alyeska is a quality resort (339" of snowfall so far this year) and AK probably has the best backcountry skiing in the world.

There's also the University of Nevada at Reno. Reno's kind of a craphole, but Tahoe is less than an hour's drive away. Plus, you'll never be wanting for skanky hookers.
