Worst area to live and be a skiier

I live in So Dak. It's living hell for skiing. I struggle to get in a couple days of riding in each season because I live 2 hours from the closest hill and its a POS chuck full of snowboards that are chads. Another huge struggle is being the only person that skis or even snowboards. I have no friends that share any interest in shredding. Any other shitty places to live and ski?

I live 5 hours from the closest mountain, but the ride has taken as long as 8. It's Tahoe though, so definitely better than the POS hill you are by.

I'd say anywhere in the south the midwest and ice coast may not be ideal, but I couldn't imagine literally not having snow

I lived in VA most of my life. Sucked. Finally said f*ck it in January, packed my stuff, and moved to Utah. I'll never go back except to see family occasionally.

if you are trying to say your area is the worst place to live for a skier and it snows where you live, you are doing it wrong

and this is a silly thread anyways.

I live in northern New Zealand. 8 Hours to the nearest mountain, but half the winter it is shut and the other half it is ice. Nearest decent skiing is 2 days drive away.

NC aint that bad... thanks to me (jk thanks to Drew 'the godfather' Stanley and Rick 'the fish' Wilkinson)

Doesn't really show our park justice, just the top half of one of them (we have 3 if you count our progression park)
