For Summit County Colorado my opinion is that:
Breckenridge has lots of everything, including the most beginner terrain. If the bright sunlight, crowds of good looking young people and mellow cruises become boring, you can go to Keystone.
Lots of people go to Keystone looking for blue and green runs... wind your way down the front side literally for miles following easy signs. It's fun and there's lots of middle aged traffic acting hot and rich. If you're or for real enough, try skiing at night, you can see better. That's actually great for beginners because there is less distraction from others and better visibility.
Colorado's Sol Vista would be a good choice too. They also have lights and some friendly turf.
Copper's "Union Creek" has been a dedicated beginner's area since way back, and if you really want to progress you will find plenty of transitional places at Copper.

The answer depends on what definition of 'America' you use and on how you measure it. Different resorts claim the title, but based on what definitions and measurements? If 'America' means the USA, then Mt. Hood Skibowl in Oregon claims the title 'America's Largest Night Ski area' on its website based on its 34+ trails on 550 acres (but does that mean all 550+ acres are actually skiable?). If 'America' means North America, then two ski resorts in the province of Quebec make slightly different claims: - Ski Bromont: claims Largest Lit Skiable area in North America. As of the 2012/2013 season, it has 87 lighted ski runs + 15 glades. - Stoneham: Claims Largest Night Skiing area in Canada. 19 runs covering 184 acres.
No, the north American resorts are all small compared to those in Europe. The largest in Europe is more than 10 times the largest in north America. See also: What are the 50 largest ski resorts?
That depends what you mean by region. Considering large regions: The Alps. Largest ski area on one ski pass: Salzburg super ski card. Largest linked ski area: Les 3 vallées.
The largest unlinked ski area is of course the Alps. The largest unlinked ski area available on one ski pass is offered by the Tirol Snow Card giving access to more than 3000 km of piste in more than 70 ski resorts.
The Canyons ski resort is one of the top 10 ski resorts in North America and is located in Park City, Utah. It is known to be the largest ski resort in Utah and has 4 thousand acres of terrain for skiing with 19 chairlifts.
There are numerous companies offering ski travel services within North America. Some of the most popular companies include; Ski Bound, Ski, Inghams and Scott Dunn.
