Sup /trv/, do any of you guys travel for the snow? Favourite destinations? I've only really done Australia and Japan, and Canada when I was little. Keen to see what others recommend.

Also interested, hopefully someone can drop some knowledge here. How hard is it to do a working holiday type deal in either Japan or Canada ?

Easy in Canada... Everyone who works at ski hills are locals or foreigners. But I think it's a lottery system and some countries get more visas than others. Blue mountain if you're in ontario, Tremblant if you're in Quebec, and pretty much anywhere in Alberta or bc will be decent (obviously whistler for the true wild experience)
>red mountain BC Canada
>Whistler
>Breckenridge CO + the others, Vail, beaver creek, Keystone
>Silver Mountain, Idaho
>Bannoe, Russia
>Abzakovo, Russia
Then all the normal places around me.....
I really liked all for different reasons, Colorado was very high, huge rail parks. Russia, not as developed as Usa, but fun for newbies. Favorite is Silver Mountain though, i guess its just all around what i prefer
I want to try south america next
As I live in Switzerland I don't really have to travel much to go snowboarding, but I went to France and Austria once. What I definitely want to try is the powder in Japan.

how did you like red?
never been there during winter, but the road from trail even during summer is scary

switzerland is very, very, very, very, very, very, very expensive but also very very very nice, whereas austria is less expensive and just as nice
Alta, Utah. Last of the wild west ski towns.
If you want to spend a whole winter there get a job at one of the lodges. They'll feed you, house you and give you a season pass.

Very beautiful, they say something like the last great or most unspoiled ski resort, and its kinda true. The Canadians are great. It has been so long since i was there, but i know the place was great and i loved it.
The road is bad, but had no problems. I need to go back this year i think
