For Boarding: If you like to cruise, anywhere but Alta (heard they are opening to boarders next year.... oh noes!!!!) and DV takes em. If you are into terrain parks, you can't beat the one at Canyons (hate that place with a passion except for the terrain park.... I have deep rooted issues with it lol). TP is the craziest thing I have seen. 70 or so features, gaps, etc. It's as long as a full run. Check it out if you are into that kind of thing.

I like the canyons tons of terrain. Havent skied DV yet but plan to this season. if Alta opens to boarders there will be a huge locals revolt.
Brighton is the boarders mountain from what im told. Never boarded never will but they have some really good tree skiing.
Powder Mountain rocks on Pow days. tough to get to but with over 5k acres of skiable terrain and much less grooming than most its a great place. plus they have 200.00 all day cat skiing which ROCKS. you want steep check out the Olympic downhill run at Snow Basin. fucking shit drops like no tomorrow!
