I'm looking for some advice on which locations in Utah would be good for me and my family from April 11 to 13, 2020. I have the Ikon base pass. Wife doesn't have the Ikon pass and I'm open to buying tickets. The snow in Tahoe was sticky in April and I fell down a couple of times or found it difficult to reach the lift. We would like to go to Utah if they will have the nice snow I experienced there in March.
I have progressed beyond beginner and I hope to take more lessons this season and improve further. I was able to ski most of the groomed blues at Heavenly last season. Wife is still on the beginner lift but will hopefully have progressed beyond that by April. My 5 y.o. is enjoying skiing and she did a few laps on the first time chair in Park City in March.
I have read Deer Valley has the best beginner terrain on Ikon but I'm not sure it will be any good in April. I do see some North facing slopes there. Would Alta/Brighton/Solitude be better than Deer Valley for us?
I'm booking Southwest flights on points, so we can cancel if the conditions are not better than Tahoe.
