One of my top 3 - especially their Mary Jane mountain. So close to Denver, accessible via Berthod Pass or the Ski Train. Mary Jane has more trees, blue runs; Winter Park is more green and blue, especially fantastic for kids.

I've really never skied at Steamboat, although I've been there off season a few times. I'll definitely be going in 2020!
