WTF!? OSLO!!

It's the capital city of Norway!, just jump on the underground and it brings you straight to Oslo Vinterpark in 25 minutes, or take a train to Varingskollen ( 30 minutes) or Ingierkollen, or Grefsenkollen... haha, and you get to enjoi all the goodies a capital city has to offer!

I thought Banff would of appeared by now?

Just over an hour from Calgary
Has 3 hills nearby- Norquay, Nakiska, Sunshine
And Lake Louise nearby, theres a ton of stuff in Banff when I've driven through aswell, maybe somewhere else to look into?

Golden? I'm sure there's pretty much nothing in the town apart from the hill.

Lake Tahoe has ski resorts all over the place.... And decent nightlife/ casinos
Telluride is fucking steep and fun as fuck
Mammoth always a fricking blast... Medical marijuana state!!
Sun Valley is awesome
Jackson Hole is sick
Just about all of the Utah resorts kick ass
Colorado resorts are dope.. and medical dope is legal!!
I have never skied in Europe.
I could go on. The ski town you choose to be in is the best, because when the skiing is so fun nightlife is second fiddle.

Just travel and ski as many places as you can in life.

i like my home mountain resort town. but i have to admit that it both doesnt exist and also sucks.


i really like tremblant, PC is nice. breck is cool, but the riding is not as good as keystone.



fucking rutland is obviously the best of all .

Pretty much everything I was going to say has been mentioned but here it is again:

Nelson, BC (best vibe, great people)
PC>Breck (barely, splittin' hairs here)
Whistler
Telluride
Rossland, BC is pretty cool as well.
