Vail are losers

When PeakRankings says “However,” you know he’s about to deliver a crushing blow 😭

I vote Northstar for worst

Watch them limit season passes.

When you go public, you have to be "efficient" to payout stockholders. Since stockholders and CEOs of public companies are generally just leaches, it is no surprise that quality goes down. Public trading is a steroid shot of "capital" to rapid growth, but like steroids, it destroys in the long run.

Went to Austria, day passes $35 to $ 55 , better food and fantastic professional service.

Wait I had no clue that NA resorts don't groom some runs. That's really interesting!

Do gore mountain NY

Massive snowstorm over switzerland startin in the next few hours. Not stoping until friday night. Blue sky and sun on saturday so... Very excited😁 Verbier currently the only open resort so should be fun🤞🏻

Family owned resorts need to price competitively. I am not going to buy a pass to wachusett for 700$ when i can get a pass to 20 mountains for 200$ more.

I do not want to know what a beer costs in an American ski resort if you consider prices in Switzerland to be reasonable.

As terrible as vail is mom and pop mountains have the same pass prices and you only get one small mountain.

Wildcat should absolutely be on a list of some sort. The scenic views the remote old school vibes and legendary steeps of ice just across from tucks... yall just don't know...

This video is basically pointless.....as almost everyone with a brain gets a pass for multiple resorts capabilities.

Guys it does not worth, dont risk your life because of 100 meter stiff downhill. i thought it was longer than 100 meters.

looks warm for january

8:01 : There is actually avalanche mitigation risk taken in the areas where marked pistes could be threatened. So going "back country" by staying in viewing distance or just in between marked pistes is a very frequent thing in european resorts. The main risk there are unmarked obstacles such as rocks, tree stumps and sudden drops caused by streams or sudden terrain variations.

Sounds like a Bigfoot warning

We are V E R B I E R - We are V E R B I E R !!!

I love this videos this is to adventurous for me and I am a seasoned winter sport er love this one videos The longe disent is zoo awsom Remember in 4 vallées zwitserland ski from 3000 downt to 1500 top snow was nice upper botom was sluch lol No wifi serious calling it wifi you meen no Internet wifi is not internet only a middle man that can get you ther 😂😂😂 funny that men mess that up

Book in the place you end up in wel that's it's aften fully boomt soo have fun

What's funny is there here in Europe you can ski stuff just like this on any good powder day, you dont need to sign in with ski patrol - while it's obviously common sense to have a transceiver, shovel and probe, no one will check you do or prevent you skiing if you don't - and it's the same with having insurance - it's essentially your call. In Europe you'll find literally hundreds of people all over the resort hiking up to terrain like this and it's considered standard for advanced skiers when there has been fresh snow to go ski a steep couloir with your buddies. Totally different mentality and culture

1983. Amazing. Stationed at F E Warren AFB. Skied Stteamboat every weekend. 20 bux per day.

I would have put one more Utah spot on this list, Snowbasin

*ice crunching loudly underneath* “magnificent” 😂😂😂 lol yeah right

This looks like an extreme waste of time lol

Snowmass is like someone looked at a mountain and tried to build as many runs across the fall line instead of down it as possible. I always felt like I was going somewhere to get to something else instead of just going down. The good terrain isn't lapable. My least favorite mountain in Colorado.

Used gear can be bought for 2 days of rental. Is it really worth renting? One season of renting gear can buy you the best gear. So yeah, ppl are not stupid.

I hope you get to review alyeska this season. I think it suffers from the same challenges as Washington and Oregon but is a worthwhile resort for those who can make it there.

They are making it so expensive that they are losing a generation of families from midwest. Aka new skier base for the next 20 to 30 years.

Man maybe I'm getting old, but doing that without crampons is stupid. Irresponsible of ski patrol to not even recommend it

I know that place on the first corner you we’re on I hit some when I was not paying attention 😅

Seven Springs is only an hour away from me and ever since vail bought it out it has been so much worse. Lift tickets, food, etc. it has all gotten way more expensive. It would be different if they made the resort better and more expensive but the resort has only declined overall. Im lucky enough to have a county owned ski hill right next to my house but it sucks that vail and other huge companies are running these resorts into the dirt…

15:31 I was at that exact lift from Trockener Steg to Glacier Paradise and it took me one and a half hours to get to the top. It was the first day with good weather since almost a whole week and literally everyone wanted to go there. Pity I could only ever go there one single time...

Jay peak boost their stats of snowstorms

Here in Europe, we are free to ski any couloir any time! Not that it is always smart to do so, obviously. But it is up to everyone to exercise good judgement. In term of skiing at least, the real Land of the Free is the other side of the Pond!

This video did not fail to leave me stunned. Holy crap that was a ride! And I'd love to do this one day, although I believe the time is pretty limited due to climate change :(

Are you in Taos New Mexico?

The video at 14:15 is not shot in New England. It is the deck of the Goldminer's Daughter lodge at the Wildcat base of Alta in Utah

I think I’d have to put Jay Peak at number one Killington number two

Out west sucks, don't come out here....

Was honestly surprised Taos wasn’t on there (not number one, just on there)

Mistake NUMBER ONE. Being from Texas.

IMHO, I find the verticals 'similar' to the East Coast in that the bottom half of the Western mountains 'isn't, worth it' due to poor snow quality (due to temp differences between top & bottom), lift layout &/or it's less steep, so not as much fun & a lot of folks ski/ride there. Again IMO & nothing against lower elevation skiing/riding. WB is a perfect example of this. Snow quality top VS. bottom can be night & day due - literally rain/snow to its height & base elevation. Revelstoke has one lift from base to mid mountain, so can have loooong lines. JH lifts & terrain are very much split mid mountain. Of course this isn't always the case but that has been my experience & what you like may be very different from what I like. Just get out there & enjoy.

There are plenty of much better resorts in Europe and cheaper even with the airfare.

Something about the audio does not sound right. I think the voice over on previous videos sounds better

came here hoping A basin made it. I see why it didn't lol

Just found my brother in the vid skiing

I live in Ohio, mad river is my closest resort. I go out of my way to go to the family owned mountain a bit more north because vail has made the prices unreasonable to ski/snowboard in Ohio. 80 dollars for a day pass in Ohio where the elevation is <300 feet is absolutely insane. Not to mention the lack of natural snow
