Travel Advice

Post by GaGa »

I'm just wondering. Where is the best place in North America to enjoy the snow (skiing, snow boarding, etc). I can only think of Aspen in Colorado, and Banff in BC -- but I know there's more than that!

Any help is appreciated.

Not to sound like a dick, but cost isn't an issue.

Blackcomb BC, Whistler (maybe not this year, unless you go, before or after olympics, but still not so great) Tremblant Quebec.

Those are my top three for canada...

U.S. I don't know...

P.S. go sometime in january / feburary, even march, nothing before then if you dont want to get disappointed..

Also in the state of maine, there are some good places, but dont ask for names...

Thanks for your advice!

I was planning on going after the 14th of January. When are the Winter Olympics?

Winter Olympics are in February. Apparently Olympic years are a great time to go.

^thanks. I read they're being held from Feb 12–28. If I go around that time I would probably just go to Aspen.
