oh right, I forgot Aspen.

That's why it's really hard for me to limit to only 3. I can't say Big Sky is better than Aspen or the other way around. Both are in a world of their own.

Alta/Snowbird is also super special. So is Taos.

But does that leaves Kirkwood and Jackson Hole?

All of them I've skied enough number of days under different conditions.

Steamboat - chasing kids (5 & 7 years old at the time) through the woods for an entire week PRICELESS
A Basin - many Feb spring break trips
Sugarbush - echo drfeff I would not own a condo there if did not really like the place
