Top Ten Snowboard Resorts

Top Ten Snowboard Resorts (Extreme Pro Sports)

  1. Lake Tahoe, California
  2. Sugarloaf, Maine
  3. Snowbird, Utah
  4. Summit County, Colorado

    This fine county claims the highest altitude resorts in the state. Of the three major resorts, Copper Mountain has the best territory and exposure for the late season. Neighboring Arapahoe Basin is a spring legend. Snow stays on the steep Palivaccini long into the summer; some Aprils have four feet of snow, and May sometimes adds another two to three feet of powder. The scene at the base area is amazing, with hundreds of riders enjoying tailgate parties. Close-by Loveland is a springtime contender too.

  5. Whistler/Blackcomb, British Columbia, Canada
  6. Mammoth Mountain, California
  7. Stevens Pass, Washington
  8. Sunshine Village, Banff, Alberta, Canada
  9. Killington, Vermont
  10. Crested Butte, Colorado
