Certified Ski Diva
asking the experts here (aka, anyone with an opinion ): I'm an instructor at our local mid-Atlantic resort and therefore busy Jan/Feb and as much of March as we can manage. Also, married to a school teacher who will want to go somewhere warm for xmas break. All this is by way of setting the stage that my likely best shot at my own ski week is going to be mid-December (will also try for a spring trip in late March if possible). So, would appreciate any thoughts on where best to go. My basic criteria:
Epic pass mountain
Relatively easy airport transfer
Likely decent snow in mid-December
more leaning towards groomed blues and blacks and lovely long greens (not a big back country or mogul skiier - knees won't take it)
Easy to get around without a car
I'm thinking Beaver Creek/Vail, but would really appreciate any thoughts here.
