I dont think I have any ONE place I like to go, but I have to say that the kinds of places I end up having a REALLY good time at have some things in common:

1) Not crowded.
2) Friendly and attentive staff.
3) Low-speed lifts = better snow quality underneath.  I hate high speed quads and gondolas!
4) Mom & Pop mountains.
5) Close-in parking.

I guess that's it.  You know the more I feel like I am at some place like DISNEY WORLD the less I like it.

So a few of Frosty's Faves here:

- A-Basin, Colorado
- Brian Head, Utah
- Wisp, Maryland
- HooDoo, Oregon
- Eaglecrest, Alaska
- Jackson Hole, Wyoming

How about you?

LOL, yeh I don't think I will go far ou tof my way to go to Wisp, but it was my stomping ground as a lad and have fun memories from being there.  Mainly icey runs but can be fun for sure.

I never been to Cortina but I hear it's awesome.

I go to Keystone from time ot time and I always end up wishing I was at Loveland, A-basin, Breck, or Copper instead.  I think I get that Disney-feeling at Keystone.  Not bad on the right day though.  Nice views from the top.

Also, you won't believe this, but the abbreviation for Switzerland is CH.  LOL.
