I think Breck is a great choice. As you say the tickets are transferable. The town gets hoppen with some fun stuff to do at night, and it is a bit cheaper than the others. The skiing experience at all of them is pretty similar. A-basin as Chuck mentioned is probably the most challenging of them.
My favorite one of the group to ski at is probably Beaver Creek. But it is big bucks to stay there. If you go there you have to ski the Birds of Prey downhill race course. The you tell me who is tougher a downhill skier or an NFL player, ha ha ha. It is nuts that those guys do 60+MPH down that stuff.
I can tell you what though it is tough to plan a ski trip for that early in the season. Do the hotel reservations have cancellation policy's? I lived in Colorado for 15 years, and early December can be questionable in terms of snow quality and quantity. Some years it can be great, and others there is a chance you could be skiing on man-made (aka Midwestern) snow.
When you go drink plenty of water, take tylenol to thin your blood, and know that booze will hit you sooner than it will on the flat lands. Also have a Fat Tire and a Sunshine Wheat for me when you are there.
Cheers
Rich
