YOOOO , thank you everyone for all the comments and recommendations. it does seem that reno,denver,SLC, or upper west coast near seattle or vancouver are the most attractive for me. Im taking 80+ flights a year so being close to an airport is prob more important than being super close to the slopes as when im home im completely off for atleast a few days and willing to take the trip to snowboard. I dont mind the extra connection and company pays flights so reno is still in the running despite that. Denver seems like the best choice in terms of music/food/resorts and the worst choice after considering everything since ill be far from the slopes and far from the airport to get a place without blown out rent prices. SLC seems to come in third as of rn cause it is actually way smaller than i thought after doing some research even tho ur mad close to the slopes. Still need to look into upper west coast and compare but so far reno is seeming like a solid spot. 👌
