As far as I am concerned, if I want a place to tear it up with my buds I am going to Alta. It is probably my favorite place for SKIING steep and deep shit. BUT, if I want a place to go for a few weeks over Christmas with my family I am going to Vail.(Sadly I have never been to Whistler but I know, I know...it is awesome) Vail as a resort can't be beaten by anyplace I have been to. (I know Whistler is great blah blah) The atmosphere in Vail is unique and can't be matched by Alta, Snowbird, Brek, CB, PC, Aspen (well, kinda), Beaver Creek, or Deer Valley. 5,000 acres doesn't hurt either, and for those of you who haven't been to Vail, it does have amazing skiing. SO there, Alta is great for skiing, Vail is great for skiing and as a resort.
