Advice for my first trip to Canada/US

d
Hello!



After dreaming about it my whole life, this year I am finally heading to Canada and the US to go snowboarding!!! I'm really excited but not sure if I've chosen right. As I'm from Sydney, Australia there aren't that many places to go so never been in this situation before. That said I'm pretty sure anywhere I go will be great so I'm not that concerned about being disappointed.



We're heading to Vancouver on 31st January and heading back from San Francisco on 14th March.



I have only booked international flights and haven't booked my internal flights yet so was hoping to get your input before I do.



Our plans at this stage are to go to Banff, Salt Lake City and Lake Tahoe for snowboarding. We're also going to Ottawa and Quebec for their Winter festivals, and Toronto and NYC to visit my relatives, and Chicago because we've never been and think it might be interesting, plus I have a friend there.



I've skipped Whistler because as we can get direct flights to Vancouver I think we can get back there another time. I chose Salt Lake City because I met someone from Utah who was telling me how everything was really close by and the snow is amazing. And I chose Lake Tahoe because I'm visiting some friends in San Francisco and it's a relatively close drive from there.



So my questions are:

- Should I be considering other places? I could go somewhere else instead of Utah or Tahoe for example.

- Is Mammoth worth the longer drive or will Lake Tahoe be good for us? I'm pretty confident on all terrain but my partner is probably intermediate.

- I heard there are two parts - South and North Lake Tahoe. I'm keen on the more lively area in Lake Tahoe, is heavenly the best place to go from here?

- Is there anything else I probably should consider?



Thanks heaps in advance for your help!
