A little butt hurt that the No. 1 snow-sports Web site OnTheSnow.com isn’t mentioned here.

OnTheSnow.com received a record 1.6 million unique visitors in January 2009 – audited. Does any other site even come close to that?

Please add http://twitter.com/On_The_Snow

According to wefollow.com we’re currently 12th among skiing twitter users (see here: http://wefollow.com/tag/skiing) and we’re 16th among snowboarding twitter users (see here: http://wefollow.com/tag/snowboarding)

Or just check us out at OnTheSnow.com

Cheers!
