I'm going to visit my daughter in Kent. Crystal and Snoqualmie are both on the Ikon pass: Crystal is about an half hour further than Snoqualmie, but it is also a little larger.
I'm more of a green/blue surf carver, not a kill the mountain carver. Buttermilk is my favorite in Aspen ,followed by the Elk Camp area at Snowmass. Looking at the trail maps, it seems that Snoqualmie may offer more of that type of terrain.
It seems that Snoqualmie would be good as it is closer and seems to have terrain that I would enjoy.
Do any of you northwest carvers have any other intel that would influence the choice? Grooming quality? Ease of access?
Or anything else you can think of!
