I've only been to 6.

1. Vail (don't care what the haters say).
2. Copper
3. Heavenly
4. Winter Park
5. Beaver Creek

6 would be Breckenridge...Hit it on a bad day and not a pleasant memory.

Honorable mention: Kirkwood. Probably would be No. 1. Hit it in a blizzard and the place was awesome. Unfortunately I sat in the lodge nursing frosties with a torn ACL/MCL while my friends reveled in it.

Ones I've been to but didn't mention: Steamboat, Grand Targhee
Whistler is a tough one to place, because I really wasn't there at a great time..they didn't have enough of a base to have a lot of stuff open. I figure it may move up at least one slot if I were able to ski it with more terrain open.

Forgot to mention that I've been to Portillo too. Doesn't change my top 5, though.
