You would love some of the backcountry stuff we have around here. There's this spot not too far up the canyon where it's basically just a big rolling hillside with deep powder and scattered trees. You build a jump on one of the rollers and just hike up and ride down the jump all day. Perfect place to learn tricks because it's almost impossible to hurt yourself in the deep stuff (although it makes the hiking very difficult h: ). I've come down pretty much right on top of my head and no harm done.
