Where to go snowboarding on Spring Break?

Question

Hows it goin everybody I ve been doin some research on places to go snowboarding during spring break. We want to go to a place that has the spring break atmosphere and all. Ive done some research on Vail, Steamboat Springs, Crested Butte, and Winter Park and they all looked great but I dont know which one is the best out of them all for college spring breakers. Thanks for the help

Answer 1

Ft lauderdale

Answer 2

Vail has looong runs, and TONS of choices. a massive terrain park (if you're into tricks), with jumps, rails, and a half pipe. However some people don't really like the "environment". A lot of the locals can be really uptight, unconversational (Something you want to consider when you're going to be riding the lifts for 15 minutes with someone), and arrogant experience. Which can make for an unpleasant stay.

Winter Park on the other hand has equally promising terrain, and hills, and the majority of it customers claim it's much better than Vail. With just as much selection and a better environment, plus a large terrain park than Vail (Which for the most part only has LARGE jumps, and nothing intermediate or smaller). Winter Park would be the way to go.

Answer 3

How much are you willing to spend / how far are you willing to travel?

Whistler, British Columbia. It's famous for it's slopes ...also it's high prices. There's also more than just slopes there. Never been to Whistler to be honest, or am old enough to know about the 'clubs' or whatever but I know a bit about it.

Also Mont tremblant in Quebec.  I just came back there from the quebec March break and 'twas awesome. Especially for boarders. They have awesome snowparks. I don't know about the 'spring break' atmosphere though. There is a little village at the base of the mountain that's full of little shops that you could walk around but there's not necessarily any clubs .. or teens running around partying. If that's the atmosphere your looking for? It's more of a calm village-y thing.But if your looking to chillax with your buddies there's some gorgeous chalets that overlook the whole mountain and it's a good place to be with friends in the evenings.

Answer 4

WP isn't bad, but there isn't a lot in the town for the atmosphere you're looking for.....breck would be one of your best bets....the twon is spring  break crazy and it's probably the most populated mountain out of the big 5 in the area....(keystone, breck, copper, wp, abasin)  vail is tight but it's big bucks!

Answer 5

I think Heavenly, Lake Tahoe is a good choice.  Known for it's night life, beach on the lake, and great riding all season.

Answer 6

In the U.S. theres nothing better than the rockies... my favorite is near Aspen, called Buttermilk. This is where they also had the X Games. Ive been to all four of the ones you listed, and personally i had the best time at Crested Butte.
