Now the question is, what are the best ski areas, accessed through cities that service Southwest, within those radii?

Ugh . . . I have severely underestimated the distances involved to Resorts out west.

Still . . . $100 one way ain't bad.

good prices, esp since SW doesn't charge for baggage. Downside not many (if any) direct flights depending on your departure airport. But still, I think I may have to book a Utah flight...

$242.20 (with taxes) for RT Hartford-Denver is not bad at all! Wow!

Colorado or Utah in January? That is the only question left.

Salt Lake City, Denver, Reno, Boise, Portland, Seattle, Spokane and Albuquerque are all possible places to fly to for a ski vacation.
