I like Empire alot, but when it is open the trees are open too and I'd rather ski them. I always get a couple in on Empire though.
Other than the lower angle "beginner trees" like High Country Glades, the snow has to be very nice, turny and soft for me to do anything but survive in the tighter steeper stuff like Cloudsplitter and Tenth Mountain Division. BUT I do have new boots this year that rock and will soon have my new skis mounted with KILLER bindings so this could be my year in there. We'll see. When the snow's really nice, I can play in there (or at least I have).
Dont discount the scud launcher. It works wonders to knock through the small trees.
