Where can you go for a great downhill skiing vacation?

Answer

The Western part of the United States offers a multitude of great downhill skiing areas. I have skied in Colorado and Utah. I found Utah to be an awesome ski vacation for many reasons.

One major benefit is that you can stay in Salt Lake City, Utah and have access to several ski resorts in the area. There are a bunch of great ski resorts all within very close proximity to Salt Lake City. Great ski resorts include Snowbird, Alta, Deer Valley, Park City, the Canyons, and Solitude.

Deer Valley is a little more pricey then the rest and it is a favorite of many celebrities. Park City is where they held the 2002 Winter Olympics and is a great place to visit. The ski resorts are easily accessible by highway. You can literally ski at a new ski resort every day of your trip.

Plus, the ski resorts in Utah were not as crowded as they are in Colorado. This is a very nice feature because you don't have to wait in any lift lines!
