Snowmass seems to be blessed with good snow most of the season. It's a good resort for the family as well as upper level skiers too. A+++ !!!

Great wide groomed runs with wonderful scenery, such as the Maroon Bells in the background. Also, not crowded, great transportation, and plenty apres ski opportunities.
