SNOW HEAVEN

With their reputation for abundant, floaty light powder, it’s no surprise that so many British skiers and boarders that have ventured across the Atlantic just keep going back. It’s not just the snow of course; there’s the high service standards that are common across the ski areas of Canada and the US, the perfectly groomed slopes, the fast, comfortable lift networks and the lack of queues that all score highly in favour of North American skiing. Throw into the mix spectacular scenery, spacious accommodation, high-value dining, excellent childcare, great resort amenities on and off the slopes and an always-friendly, smiling welcome and we start to get to the point where the question has to be asked: why would you ski anywhere else?
