move to frisco if you want a bunch of yuppie wankers and mediocre at best skiing. everything is REALLY expensive (rent, food, drinks, etc).
the butte is cool, lots of chill people and while rent is high, most other things aren't. great skiing too. the park has finally caught up with the extremes, plus insane backcountry.
look at durango and leadville. two good towns for skiing.
