Just yesterday, Forbes released its Top 10 Ski Resorts in North America for 2016. Yes, Forbes’ top 10 changes from year to year.
“Does skiing change year to year? Of course it does. So, too, do the best ski resort rankings in the world. We’ve again worked most of the summer and fall to add information, statistics, formulas, programming, inputs and outputs to make our ski resort rankings even better. As always, the arbiter of the rankings is an algorithm that measures the one thing that matters most: awesomeness.” – Forbes, yesterday
Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming dominate this list taking 8 of the top 10 spots. California didn’t make this list and all and you can’t blame Forbes since it hasn’t snowed in California since 2011. Hopefully this year’s El Nino changes all that and CA is back on the list next year.
TOP 10 SKI RESORTS IN NORTH AMERICA for 2016:
#1 = Jackson Hole, WY
#2 = Snowbird, UT
#3 = Whistler, B.C.
#4 = Alta, UT
#5 = Vail, CO
#6 = Telluride, CO
#7 = Alyeska, AK
#8 = Aspen, CO
#9 = Grand Targhee, WY
#10 = Park City, UT
Typo on your top 10 ski resorts list article: Grand Targhee is in Wyoming, not Colorado
My bad! Fixing now. thanks.
Finally a decent list.
I agree with the top 4 areas.
Some like #5 & 7 not so much.
Pretty sure you guys have already been notified by others, but the #9 ski resort on the Forbes list is in Wyoming, not Colorado.
