The USA is known for many things, its world-class ski resorts among them. Although Brits might naturally plump for the closer proximity of European slopes, the States has carved out a reputation for snowsports thanks to a number of famed mountain destinations to rival the Alps.
Colorado is one such state, with ski resorts lauded for their champagne powder, extensive and varied terrain, tree-lined trails and gentle bowls to play in. Blessed with the incredible Rocky Mountains and a variety of snow-sure destinations, it has quickly risen to become the capital of skiing in the US.
