Best Resort: Whistler Blackcomb, BC



What can be said about Whistler that hasn’t been said before? It has the most gnarly on-resort acreage, the best backcountry access, more vertical than almost anyone, huge snowfall, and a killer village. Oh wait, that’s been said before, and that’s why Whistler Blackcomb remains the best overall resort in North America.

Best of the East: Mount Snow



Dew Tour. Carinthia Terrain Park. Fast lifts. Mt. Snow Open. Lots of acreage. Mt. Snow has devoted an entire side of its resort to park and pipe, fueling the East Coast fi re that is park and pipe skiing. It may not have the steepest terrain or most snowfall in the East, but the dedication of the park staff is enough to put it atop the list.
