Not sure what you are trying to ask/say here. When you say midwest I hope you mean Colorado and out west in Utah. Iowa, Illinois, Wisco, MN are shit holes pretty much. The vibe is pretty dam sick because you get to see everything and know everyone. A lot of hills play music on speakers and you can hear it from the bottom and top. Skiing wise Out west wins 11/10 times compared to the actual midwest.

Michigan has some decently tall hills, and better snow fall than Wisconsin if you go far north even on the lower peninsula. Mt. Bohemia is a cool place some really good terrain for the Midwest. It has steeps and drops.

But the shitty fact still remains that those of us in the Midwest ski on hills and not mountains.

I live in the east, but I'll ski in the Midwest every once in a while. I really like the vibe of midwest resorts (Except BMBW. Always get a weird vibe from that place even though I have friends from there). The midwest has a real friendly vibe to it. And they love their skiing more than any place in the US. The lower east coast has a similar vibe to it. My home mountain use to be super intimidating to me when I was younger. Nowadays it's super chill. Up north on the east, has a weird vibe; I cant rrally explain it. Favorite place up there vibe-wise, would have to be Gunstock NH. And I just realized I have said vibe like 15 times.

Fucking fight me bish. We're the Midwest master race. But in all seriousness op Michigan has a lot of rail gardens and the vibes are pretty cool. Also we have some pretty good trees when the lake effect snow comes around. But if you can get out west get. Out. West. You'll learn so much more. If you can't the Midwest is pretty cool to.

Not sure why the fuck you are freaking out, and if you note i didnt mention Michigan as it actually has some more east coast feel. Mt. Bohemia gets dumped the fuck on

For a brief second this winter I will be crushing them midatlantic ice bumps harder than any of you. You better believe I will rule the backside of Liberty while I am there.

I heard that mount Washington and khatadin in Maine are pretty cool... they are not Utah or Colorado but still pretty ill.

Back to teh threat topic... Granite peak is really really sick. and not just the rails its also has some longish trails and a some steeps parts. but even though teh mid west is really jut hills it still has some of the best rails in the country (I heard mid west kids ski rails pretty good;) but the east coast still beats it with parks like big boulder, carinthia and 7springs as well as the over 3k vert that white face has. and the the snow/steeps and insanely long season that killlington/ mount Washington have.
