Mount Bachelor has excellent beginner -> intermediate skiing.
There is a limited quantity of advanced skiing (with one exception),
though. The area is targeted at "family" skiing, so you don't find
the night-life there that some of the big resorts have. But the snow
is usually dry and plentiful -- and that's what's important.
The exception for advance skiers is the new lift to the top of Mount
Bachelor. This will open this year, and will provide 360-degree (2-pi
radians for you EE-types) skiing above timberline. The problem is
that weather will prevent skiing up there most of the winter. This
should become a popular spring-skiing spot -- you should be able to
ski into June, most years.
If Bhaskar would like some more information, walk down the hall --
I've got a trail map of Bachelor.
