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?

Tasmania, Australia. One ski "field" (no discerned runs) only 20m vertical, last season consisted of 3 days (during my mid year exams), nobody has even heard of twin tipped skis and i get a lot of hate for wearing a tall t :'(

Saskatchewan, although my hill is 20 minutes away, it is so shitty. 12 runs, shitty ass park. The nearest good hill is 2 hours away, and some are like 4.

Denver, the resort skiing is just enough to string you along, but never enough to leave you satisfied.

You forgot Kansas... The closest hill is snow creek (an hour drive) elevation gain is 500 feet.

Click for larger image

The highest point in Kansas is 4,039 feet about see level. Needless to say we are fairly flat.

Try Brisbane, Australia. Where it gets up to 105 in the summer (with 100% humidity) and 2000km from an AVERAGE ski hill.

I live in the United Arab Emirates (i.e. the desert). We don't tend to get many powder day's here.....

To those who say England, wtf! The alps are 4 hours away. Get off your lazy backsides!
