For those who dream of pristine powder and the thrill of the slopes, Fifty Places to Ski and Snowboard Before You Die maps out must-visit destinations around the globe. Stunning photographs take readers around the world, from Alaska’s Tordrillo Mountains to Switzerland’s towering Matterhorn and Chile’s legendary Portillo resort. Need-to-know tips advise travelers on where to stay and when to go, and expert interviews reveal the rich history of each destination. As seasoned locals share anecdotes about life on the world’s most striking slopes, readers are transported from après-ski in Cortina to helicopter rides over unspoiled Alaskan powder. Whether you’re jetting off on your next getaway or just traveling vicariously, Chris Santella’s guide will inspire any skiing and snowboarding enthusiast—amateur and black-diamond expert alike.
