14Mammoth Mountain, California

Massive Mammoth Mountain scored for best “ultimate skiing nirvana.” Surely, you’re not surprised, we’re talkin’ California, here, the land of fruits and nuts, where your rovin’ writer resides, right?) This fierce location is found in the famous Sierra Nevada Mountain Range.

Some travel writers consider this place the best to ski and snowboard in the US. Here you can ski on slopes as large as a California freeway and take in excellent views as well. Mammoth Mountain’s popularity is unquestionable and surpasses all the narrowed-laned US ski resorts. Some veteran visitors suggest you book a room at the Juniper Springs Resort.

15Stowe, Vermont

Stowe makes it on the list as the best “east coast ski getaway.” Sure, the west coast has great ski resorts, but Stowe matches them. Stowe is said by some to be a real “backcountry gem” that manages to blend beautiful snowboard and ski terrains with almost 18 miles of rugged, raw terrain. 

If you enjoy the scenery while you’re on a ski trip, ride the resort’s gondola to Mount Mansfield’s summit. It’s the highest in Vermont and offers excellent views. Throw in 116 diverging trails that extend as far as three and a half miles and you have a perfect playground for skiers. Consider staying at the favored Green Mountain Inn.
