This is the unanswerable question... none, but maybe Buck Hill if your thinking of a short drive.

Yeah. Short drive is what I'm looking for. (And I know it's a more or less unanswerable question.)

If I'm gonna drive more than a couple hours to ski, it's not going to be some crappy midwest ski hill. I'll just clear my schedule a little and take a weekender out to CO were I've already paid for my pass.

The closest 'good' park you will find is at Spirit Mountain in Duluth, so about a 2:30 hour drive.

Wild Mountain, Taylors Falls MN will have the best park this year. It's probably about and hour if you drive fast.

Hyland has a pretty good park for it's size. It can get buisy, but it has some of the best riders in the twin cities. So if you can't get out of the cities I would choose Hyland.

Alright, sounds good.

I usually do all my skiing in CO (30-40 ski days a season) but after stepping up my game a little last year (spent the season out west,) it'd be nice to get out around here once in a while.

It's usually for a week or two at a time. Generally right after Christmas, end of January, and early March. Plus, my dad owns his own business and has clients in Denver, so every time he goes out to see them, (if I can swing it) I'll go with and we'll hit the slopes for a couple day's.
