east coast kid moving to UT.

i love any and all kinds of woods, and if not in woods i want to be in some really fun expert terrain with plenty of natural hits, and i only do park if the snow is terrible, but would like something good to ski when i do hit the park, and ill have a snowdoarder friend so alta is a no go. and tons of pow days is required. i am looking to get one pass maybe two and try to get a job at a resort, ive done lifts for a yr but really want to instruct.

btw, line anthems (currently own) for park grommers and really tracked stuff, and ARG for pow and woods (because theyre super responsive in woods i hear) good choice? or should i go for some EP's

 
^ canyons has good terrain and a pretty good park but then get exponentially less snow than the lcc and bcc. Id say get a brighton pass, such fun terrain, never gets crowded, and you'll find your own secret stashes that are alwyas fun to have. if you get two passes PC snowbird
 
ya pc snowbird is best combo. and i would choose the arg's over the ep's but thats probably because i have args but have ridden the eps alot this season as well
 
Snowbird if you don't really care about park at all or brighton if you want good pow and a shitty but existing park. If pow is the biggest priority definitely something in big or little cottonwood, not pc area. pc pow days are super fun but rarely as deep.
 
what swrong with brighton park? the pics ive seen look good, does anywhere else have night skiing too?

could some ne give me a side by side comparison of bird and brighton. +k.

thanks for the help so far, and yeah pow and woods are priority 1, but a sick park is a big plus too
 
brightons park sucks. might be better than something on the east coast, but compared to PC and canyons, it has nothing. Brightons mountain is absolutely awesome, but park, ehhhh no. Just go Canyons all the way, or PC and solitude or the bird. Honeycomb canyon at solitude is probably the funnest place on the planet on a powder day. so many lines that nobody rides inbounds and lift serviced. canyons has the best mix of park and big mountain riding out of all the resorts, not the best park not the best big mountain, but the cheapest pass, and absolutely the best mix, thats why i ride there most of the time. PCs parks are awesome, but jupiter gets old. still fun, but not that big. Snowbird and alta are sooooooooooo fantastic, but it really just comes down to what you want. Each resort is good for something, everyones different. But go canyons for cheap, and a great mix. PC and Sol/Bird/Bright/Basin for powder/park expensive mix, and yea.
 
brightons park has fun rails, but they don't set them up very well. a lot of them they literally just put in the ground, no kind of lip or landing whatsoever. The ones that do have lips have tiny lips generally. The jumps are quite whack as well.
