how do you ski if you only get 4 inches of snow? and there was a guy who said he only gets 1.5" too. i'm from ny, but i've still seen feet of snow.

I'm probably going to Alaska in March to hit Alyeska and cat ski a bit.  Maybe heli ski, but if I'm going to spend that much I might go back to Japan....tough decisions.

cat skiing in ak is a joke, trust me. youre better off taking a drive down the pass and boot packing/skinning. unless youre down with getting tanked and taking blue square runs.

No matter where you are, no matter what the conditions, make the best of it. 

if i'm dying tomorrow, I go to wherever there is powder & good steeps. 

If I'm planning a vacation, I'd go to Kicking Horse without a doubt.

To all these kids saying they wanna plan a vacation to kicking horse or revelstoke you guys have got the wrong idea haha. Those mountains are so god damn sick but i would plan a trip for the whole interior but i would go a bit more south that revelstoke and kicking horse! Red mountain would be too sick in my opinion but my dream spots are Japan for the over the shoulder crazyness, jackson hole, Maybe Austria or Poland because i've heard they just get disgusting amounts of snow and of course chile because who would be choked shredding some pow in august!!
