    Very good resort, but suffers from being overshadowed by it's superior neighbor: Alta

    Pros: Very good extreme terrain, good powder on the back side

    Cons: Icy and shadowy frontside, Lacks the variety of extreme terrain of Alta

    Overall, a very good resort, but it gets overshadowed by Alta's superiority, especially with Alta being just up the road. There are many good runs off of the Tram, and I've had... Full review

    Courmayeur Review

    Pros: Excellent terrain, Wide open slopes

    Cons: Gets crowded and icy.

    I spent one day in Courmayeur on my weeklong trip to Chamonix. If you buy the weeklong pass, you have the option to spend one day at Courmayeur, and it includes the... Full review

    Cervinia Review

    Pros: Relatively varied terrain, Sunny side so softer snow

    Cons: Not much for the advanced skier

    I spent parts of a couple of days in Cervinia during my weeklong trip to Zermatt. Cervinia has the best terrain of the Italian side of the Zermatt resort. It also has... Full review

    Breckenridge Review

    Pros: Huge, varied terrain, great steeps, relatively uncrowded.

    Cons: Not enough free parking, Bad condo to hotel ratio (Too many condos).

    Excellent all-around resort. My girlfriend and I spent three days skiing here over MLK weekend. This place is so big that during a holiday weekend we hardly stood in a lift line... Full review

    Chamonix - Mont Blanc Review

    Pros: Challenging and varried terrain, effecient bus system, fun town & good food

    Cons: Ski areas are not interconnected except for Brevent and Flegere

    Every skier should make their way to Chamonix atleast once in their life. The wide open slopes, varied terrain and breathtaking views of the valley make this a mountain paradise. The only... Full review
