Every winter I spend inordinate amount of time choosing winter resort to practice my snowboarding obsession.
For season 2017/2018 I decided to collect in one place ski pass prices http://skipassprices.com for all resorts with more than 100 km of pistes.
Besides ski passes I want make an easy to use list of best ski resorts in the world complete with avg. trip price (including skipass, accommodation, food, transport).
Would you find such list useful?

For my family, the key issues are: how crowded the pistes are and the piste-mix - we need a nice mix of blues and reds, and some harder reds and some blacks for the end of the week. Also, there are some great resorts that would probably not make your list (I haven't checked your website) - Are in Sweden and Risoul in France.
Hi Dobby. So cost of trip (accommodation, food, ski lifts) doesn't play a role for you when choosing resort? How do you know how crowded pistes are?
I want to make a web site that makes those factors like crowds clearly visible to easily compare resorts. Often people have some vague sense why they like or don't like some ski resort, and often you can't get that info before visiting.
I want to crowdsource relevant resort info stuck in people's heads who've been there to make it easy for 1st time visitors.

Yes, I will add that. Right now I'm focusing on creating a list of resorts with average cost of trip. To rank resorts by cost, crowd factor, mix of pistes, altitude to make it easy to compare resorts.
What do you value the most when choosing next resort?

Could you elaborate a bit about "good value", are hotels/guesthouses more affordable, or ski pass covers large area, something else?
