Making list of ski areas not in ski town or near major metro

[Hott Butt Mud]

List of resorts that aren't in/near ski towns or near MAJOR metro areas (SLC/Reno/Denver/LA/Seattle).

No order from me, just trying to get a list of places.

1. Powderhorn, CO
2. Schweitzer Mtn, ID
3. Terry Peak, SD

Trying to think of places that are not in a major city, near decent skiing and where it's a semi-normal life for most people (meaning not a ski town / tourist area).

I'm sure this is most of the NE ski resorts, but not sure.

EDIT:

In my mind, I'm searching for decent ski areas that aren't in a hyper-inflated ski town or near a major city that will bring consistent over crowding.

Most all of the Montana areas would qualify - same for Idaho ski area north of Boise

Depending on if you disqualify ski towns for Whitefish and Bozeman (high cost of living)

There are a few relatively small resorts in BC and they are all good.
