Where would you drop 15 feet of snow?

This idea was inspired by watching lord of the rings blazed out of my mind, not by johnny moseley's mad trix as you might guess but..

given the chance to do it anywhere in the world, where would you drop 15 feet of snow to shred on? as mentioned, my first idea was dumping it on an old abandoned castle on a slope

i also have seen some crazy looking faces on hawaiian mountains etc that a bunch of snow would turn into some really rowdy lines

oh and 15 feet was an arbitrary number, some places might need more or less to be shreddable so dont worry about that

Errrmahgerd. Epic.


I would drop a rail on the absolute lowest point of dry ground on the earth. In other words, I would be skiing on the shores of the dead sea about 1369 feet below sea level.

Click for larger image dropping off the top of this then charging down would be pretty tight. I would still like to try this one island in newfoundland that I saw one time though

Mount Rushmore receives around 40 inches of snow a year. If there was a huge dump one day I bet it would be doable. The bigger issue is that it's a federal offense to climb on the rock formation. Maybe someday...
