Too long a drive for a day's skiing. If you want to pop up to Whistler/Blackcomb you'll need to be
at my house Friday afternoon. It can be a 3.5 hours drive in the winter. BTW ... Blackcomb is the better terrain

Great area . .winter or summer. There's some pretty good fly fishing around there too.
My all time favorite Western area is Mt Bachelor. They get over 320 days a year of sun. It tends to get fresh snow at night leaving the days sunny. The area is huge, teh staff friendly and genuinely concerned that you are having a great time. The area encompasses over 270 degrees of the main peak. Nearly every lift is a high speed quad and the terrain is varied and choice.<ul><li><a href="http://trailmaps.mtbachelor.com">Once it loads, click on Summit in the right bar & then mouse over the MT.</a></li></ul>

Ermm this might be the Chicago board but some of us (those who like to pop on here from time to time
and pitch you midwest schmucks a little grief) are from different areas. I am in the Northwest corner of Washington
