I'm a Utah fan. Snow always seems to be better. For Utah, the best way to go is two separate options in my opinion. You can stay/ski Park City, or stay/ski the SLC spots.
Sundance is an easy spot to ski, but it's somewhat disconnected from everything and about twice as far from the SLC...
I was there last night. Good show.
Tragic about the 19 year old. I spoke with him a bit and tried to talk him down a little bit (he was in bad shape), and when I went back to my seat after set break all seemed well. Super sad.
