Thanks!
Then I would go to Nakiska. Nakiska is actually the first place I usually go at the start of each season just to warm up. It's pretty much how you described it so I think you'd have a good time there.

It's bigger then COP. COP is kind of a bad comparable to any place because it's so small. Nakiska does have some wider runs. Nothing really too steep and it gets decent snowfall each year because of its location. The greens are quite easy and its the perfect place if you're a beginner or just want to get the feel of skis.

It has its fair amount of short runs, and some decent sized ones too. Just don't compare it to Sunshine or Louise. But much better then COP for sure.

Dont go to Norquay though. Sucky place.
