I haven't been many other places but, from Calgary we have 6 resorts within
3 hours drive.  Sunshine, Lake Louise, Kicking Horse, Panorama, Fernie, and
Kimberley.  I've done Sunshine, Louise and Kicking Horse and they are all
excellent.

The idea is this:
o Stay either in Banff or at the hill at Sunshine the first evening
   then do Sunshine.
o Stay either in Banff again or in Lake Louise, do Louise the second day.
o Stay in Golden then do Kicking Horse and travel to Invermere that evening.
o Do Panorama then travel to Kimberly or Cranbrook.
o Do Kimberly that day then travel to Fernie and do Fernie the last day
   before driving back to Calgary.

Late January and February are the best months for snow.  If the trip is in
this area I'd be in and (although reluctantly from past experience) I could
help out planning.

Jim
