I love boarding...
Mostly I go Vermont mountains..and sometimes Maine. (they are nothing compared to Mammoth and Tahoe and Colorado)..
I love Vail and Breckenridge.
I think i'll be going to Tahoe in Feb.. and Maybe Whistler.. Gosh I miss boarding.
Oh I forgot to mention Park City.. damn so many places to go.. so little money.

I've been to Keystone, CO but that was just before
Thanksgiving in 2006. Apparently it was Keystone's
36th anniversary that year so the mountain was open
for 36 hours straight.
Try skiing at 2am in the morning ... ice spots

Back to Vail.. oh man... That place can vary on conditions because its such a huge mountain. It can be icy, or tons of powder.
I went when the night before it snowed roughly 2-3 feet. Which made conditions unbelievable. If you stopped, you would sink into the snow and would take you forever to get back up. LOL.
But its beautiful and you can say there are less limitations. Its a very open mountain with no paths that are blocked. You can go anywhere as long as you know what you are doing.
Here are some pics of Vail.. oh man. I wish I was there longer.
Here my other half.
Here's my board and her's =)

skiing at 2am!! that's freaking awesome... the craziest I got was having a few too many beers and trying to board... That wasn't fun when you want to just pass out on the mountain, or when you're trying to do some wheelies or tail tricks and have no balance.. LOL.

I definitely need to plan a trip out there. What time of the year did you go?
And how long did you guys stay out there?
Btw, nice white-setup, I've got something similar (white theme),
Pardon the quilt
