Well really, it makes snow more compact. When you are skiing, you dont want soft snow otherwise that will stop your skis by swamping them, and causing lots of friction. What you want is compact snow, so that your skis can go on top of the snow rather than sink in.

Snow hardener is just a catalyst for making the snow more compact so that people skiing can ski on the slopes.

This obviously is a highly subjective question and depends on what you are looking for as Colorado has a very diverse offering when it comes to skiing. If you are looking for an aggressive back country experience try Silverton. If you are looking for deep snow, steep terrain but also a great authentic ski town environment Telluride and Crested Butte can't be beat. If you are looking for a large mountain experience with a mature resort environment try Vail. If you are looking for a high end experience with great skiing with the family try Aspen (and hangout with the movie stars) or Beaver Creek (hang out with bosses of the movie stars). If you are looking for the classic old western town try Steamboat or Breckenridge. If you want a great ski experience with diverse lodging and cost options try Keystone, Winter Park or Copper... the list goes on and on. Enjoy.

Solitude Ski Resort is a WONDERFUL place to go. It is small, the people are friendly and it is nice. It is near park city, about 1 hour to 30 minutes away from park city. It is in Utah, near Salt Lake City. If you have never skied before or are skiing for the first time in that year I recommend you do the ski school. The instructors are friendly with the kids and most kids love it. In adult classes the teachers are humorous and the classes are about 2 hours. The good thing about Solitude is that it is so small that there are never long lines. the longest line I have ever seen there had about five of six pairs of people. The condos there are very nice and parking is no problem. For the ski slopes, they have very good ones. Most of the main slopes have a resturaunt or cafe at the top of a hill were you can take off your skis and have some coffee or hot cocoa. Solitude is a lovely place, I hope you try it!!
