Epic Pass Advice

[navierSTOKED]

Wind back the clock to November 2014 and I received an email advertising the 2014-15 Epic Pass. I was young(er) and perhaps a little naive and I thought fuck it. I'm not doing anything with my life. I'm going to go some place warm. Where the beer flows like wine. But now, less than 3 months later, it is decision time, and I have no idea what to do.

My trip to the US is to be a thinly veiled attempt at getting a job and relocating. However, it will be mostly roaming around the desert looking for strippers and cocaine.

My question to you, the wise people of NS, is where should I go for my two weeks of skiing in order to get my value out of my Epic Pass? My initial thought is Park City. The main reason being I have never been to Utah before and I could stay in a proper city and get a real feel for life in the US. However, I'm not much of a park skier (I'm not much of a skier at all, really) and I hear it is very touristy. The other option would obviously be somehwere in Colorado. The skiing may be better (at least the epic pass accessible skiing) but I can't really see myself getting the kind of job I want to get in Edwards or East Vail so it might be a pointless excerise in the long run. The third option would be to get a refund on my epic and buy some other form of pass specific to Utah.

tl;dr Spark Notes: 1. Keep Epic Pass, ski PC 2. Keep Epic Pass, ski Colorado 3. Refund Epic Pass, ski Utah ???

Thanks!

I'd personally go to colorado just because of the snow, we've gotten very little in utah. Weve gotten to watch every storm just break apart, go around the wasatch, then converge again and dump on CO. we're down to manmade hardpack and dirt in park city/canyons, right now.

that said, if you still want to go to utah, almost everything is open and has decent enough coverage to shred whatever you want, so you can still have a good time. if you just want to ski park, PC has tons of features out.
