Within the twenty-one volumes of FREESKIER magazine, we’ve printed countless images showcasing the best photography in skiing. From timeless park sessions to first-descents and glorious powder shots, our contributing photographers have a keen eye for capturing the best athletes in our sport through their unique lenses.

In this four-part series, we’re highlighting the best photos from our 21st volume. In this gallery, you’ll see our favorite shots first published in The Resort Guide (21.2). This gallery features an old school, hot doggin’-inspired cover shot, stills from a Matchstick Productions film trip and an assortment of shots from our favorite ski areas around the world. Enjoy.
