I need some help deciding where to take a ski trip this winter. It's my senior year and my parents have agreed to take me anywhere I want to ski. I just can't decide. So I need help picking where. Places I have been are Utah, Tahoe, and a shit load of times to Baker. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
 
Montana. Seriously, come ski at Big Sky. We have unreal powder, it's never crowded, and massive mountains.
 
Japan, somewhere wild in South America, Europe.

Maybe throw a dart at a map and hope it lands on somewhere with snow(that isn't new jersey)

Only been to whistler in the summer but the mountain is massive and terrain is awesome. Also always wanted to go to revelstoke of banf
 
Go to Banff! Lake Louise, Sunshine, and Norquay are all less than 20 minutes from the village, and Sunshine is still my favorite resort I've ever been to.

My first choice would be Revelstoke with a side trip to kicking horse if they got some snow.

There are also Fernie, Red mountain and white water that you should consider.

Do Japan. Not only is it world class pow, lift tickets outside of the major resorts are ridiculously cheap, and there is tons of other stuff to do besides skiing there.
 
if you want a sick mountains with crazy nice parks go to whistler. sick snow and good parks. If you want just pow, then go to revelstoke. Revelstoke has really good snow and awesome terrain
 
Japan seriously. It pretty much doesn't stop snowing in winter and the culture over there is amazing. You're not just going for the snow but also for the food and the experience. It's like a whole new world.
 
Again I can only travel within North America, Japan is a dream of mine but my parents just don't have the type of money for that. And for people suggesting revelstoke or whistler when's the best time to go? I'm trying to stay from crowds so any type of holiday I'd assume id want to stay from Whistler and is Revelstoke ever crowded?
 
Revelstoke isn't very busy and whistler is so big that it doesn't seem busy when your skiing. I go to whistler every winter break so around Christmas and its always prime but I'm sure January or February would be better for snow. And revelstoke is sick between December and early February. Speaking from personal experience

I know MT is huge but how have you never been to Big Sky if you live there? So fun... tons of vert, chutes, trees, steeps. You're missing out. Besides that, Jackson Hole if you haven't been

I just never really take trips down to Bozeman and my home mountain is good enough of Montana skiing for me.
 
tahoe, buy the tahoe local pass and you get northstar with parks, heavenly with a mix, and kirkwood which has snowcats and amazing pow
