I think you guys who go out West and then stay in a central location and drive to multiple resorts during a 3-7 day trip are nuts. Those mountains are so much bigger than what I am used to, there is no way I could get bored with pretty much any single one of them during a normal vacation. Maybe if you have a month to kill or something, but I don't want to be spending more than 15-20 minutes in the car on the way to the mountain, not during precious vacation time. I'd rather be skiing.
I guess if I had to vote it would be for Park City. Plenty of night life, food options, and 3 huge resorts on the same, free bus line. Every imaginable type of skiing within a 10 minute bus ride. And easy to get to.
But you also have to think about the snow. I don't necessarily mean chasing individual storms, but just watching season totals. In that case, I would think this year the spot would be Crested Butte and Telluride. Hasn't S. Colorado rec'd the best snow?
