Driving Ski Vacation in British Columbia

Written by Dugald Morrow   
Friday, 07 August 2009

For many skiers (and snowboarders), the thought of having to get in the car and drive the the ski field each day is not their idea of a vacation. That's fair enough, it's nice to be able to roll out of bed onto your skis and ski down to the lift for your first run. For this type of vacation, I suggest you make sure there is a large enough terrain to guarantee you won't be bored by the end of your stay. Whistler/Blackcomb in British Columbia is one such resort.

Alternatively, you may like to mix it up a little - have a few days in one resort, then go on to explore another.

Utah Ski Resorts Review

Written by Dugald Morrow   
Saturday, 14 February 2009
  
When one thinks of skiing in the U.S., thoughts invariably spring to the famous Colorado resorts such as Vail and Aspen. Whilst these are world class ski resorts, so too are many of their cousins further west in Utah. There are no less than seven fabulous ski resorts that are all within an easy 45 minute drive from Salt Lake International airport making them more convenient for the international traveler to get to than the Colorado resorts.  If they are good enough to host the 2002 Winter Olympics they should be good enough to host you.

Brighton Ski Resort Review

Written by Andrew Mitchell   
Thursday, 12 February 2009
  

Introduction

Boarders may be excused for thinking they’ve died and gone to heaven on a big powder day at Brighton.  This skier was wondering if it got any better than this after a 12 inch dump of fresh dry stuff.  On that visit there was not a groomed trail in sight (or had been covered by a foot of fluffy white stuff) and fresh tracks were in abundance.
