My cousin used to be a ski instructor at Jackson Hole. He used free heel/telemark skis and had thighs of iron. We went to Jackson a couple of times. If there is a run to avoid it is Corbet's Couloir. It is not long but there is no forgiveness to it. It is narrow. It is steep. It is moguled and there are rock walls on both sides. And there is a 10 foot drop to get in. So how hard can it be. To get a better feel, watch this.
Alta vs Snowbird - I always liked Snowbird better, the lift (I think it was Little Cloud) that served the top where the tram drops you off (or the tram itself if you didn't mind the wait) provided some great skiing. There were some other very manageable runs near the top as well. I mean Chip's Run is intermediate and goes 2.5 miles from the top of the tram to the bottom. I was not an expert skier by any stretch of the imagination but I was a very bold intermediate who often "thought" he could handle the diamonds and double diamonds (more often than not I was wrong).
