Ski Utah?....
Every Bumper Sticker out here states it. The greatest snow on earth. But is it? Well I guess I wouldn't really know. I have had about 3-4 inches of fresh powder on top of ice every time. But in relation to skiing in the east its amazing. And a bit scary. (Well for an amature like myself). But one thing got me on the slopes.. and that was the word FREE. Thats right, if you fly into Utah, and ski the day you land. Its free! So now I have had the chance to ski the home of the Winter Olympics. The Canyons and Deer Park.
I recomend the Canyons, some great 2-3 mile runs built for speed. (And also I somehow I ended up in a terraine park... where I did land a jump.) But in Deer Park, I ended up in my first bowl, by accident. Going through trees, down a 55 degree angle, and off 7 foot falls... not good for a persons first ski day in 2 years. (But the 2 foot of powder keeps it from being painful).
So I survived, and now have concluded... I'm a skier not a snowboarder.

Don't ask me why a Michigan girl knows this, but there is a town in Utah called Ephraim and it is called Turkey Town, because there are thousands of turkeys bred there, and the whole town smells...well, like a turkey. I am not even kidding, I would not joke around about such a thing.
