The snow really depends on when you go. Nearly every single year at Targhee we get a couple feet of snow the week we are there, plus several feet before we get there, so it's incredible. However, last year they were really light on snow early in the season, so everything was moguled up, or groomers, which suck. So it was pretty average skiing most of the week, until the last two days it snowed a foot overnight each day, made up for the early week. Even then you still caught a little mogul under the powder.

I think I was at Big Mtn. two years ago visiting my uncle and I wasn't impressed, mostly because it was overcrowded when I went over Christmas break and there was no good snow. Timing is everything when it comes to your opinion of a place I guess.
