I think you are looking for the biggest verticle drop.
Whistler/Blackcomb, the tallest ski resort in North America

For commercial skiing the highest run is the Vallee Blanche, France, which is the glacier which snakes down the side of Mont Blanc, where there is a cable car to the top of the glacier at 2300m. A stunning run to do-- it takes a couple of hours--shorter if you are a confident skiier but requires a guide to help you avoid going down a crevasse!!
