My local ski club is doing 4 trips this season, and I want to go on one, but I've never been to any of these places so I'm having a hard time choosing! Here are the options:
Mammoth, mid-January
Beaver Creek & Vail, late January
Banff, late February
Killington mid-March
My priorities are:
1. good runs for my level - I'm a solid blue skier right now, so lots of fun blue runs and if there are some good blue/black or easy blacks I can definitely see myself venturing out on those toward the end of the week. Great tree runs, double blacks, etc. are not important to me because I'm just not there yet.
2. A good base area with options for food & refreshments (some options on the mountain would be nice too but not essential) and a good nightlife/ restaurants etc. in town for dinner. I'll be going with my boyfriend, and we'd like to be able to go out at least once or twice.
So where should I go and why? Love to hear about anything else that makes one or another of these resorts unique or the place to be. Thank you much in advance!!
