I have what seems like a dumb question but I'm going to ask it anyway!
I've been skiing most of my life (age 47) and consider myself a solid advanced eastern skier. I'm heading west for the first time at the end of February. I'll be able to get in 3 1/2 days before I fly home Thursday night. I can't decide how to divide it up between Snowbird and Alta (I'm staying at Goldminer's Daughter).
For a first time western skier do you think I should:
1. Spend most of my time exploring Alta and only 1 day at Snowbird
2. Split it 50/50
3. Skip Snowbird
If I went to Sugarbush and only skied Mt. Ellen before leaving to ski Mad River Glen I'd know that I didn't really get the full Sugarbush experience because "I just had to ski at MRG while I'm here! ". I guess that's what I'm wondering will happen; miss out on a lot of what Alta has to offer by rushing off to Snowbird just to say I did.
Any advice would be appreciated!
