Riikka Rakic writing for Red Bull has come up with a list of the 9 Most Stunning Places to Ski on Earth. I can’t say that we can give this list our Unofficial stamp of approval since there are some real glaring holes in their list. I mean where is Alyeska or Treble Cone? AND by the way, I’ve skied Rosa Khutor, Krasnaya Polyana/Sochi, Russia and it sure is pretty, but no way is it #2.
Where will your next ski adventure take you? As a guide, we’ve put together a list of the most magical ski destinations for every traveling skier’s to-do list. We scoured the world from top to bottom — from Alaska to Ushuaia and from Honshu to the Matterhorn — to compile this list of what we consider to be the most amazing skiing spots out there.
