5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent summary of top ski resorts, where to stay & go,
By Neil Rosenberg (nrosenberg@qtsnet.com) (Parsippany, NJ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Skiing USA: The Guide for Skiers and Snowboarders: Where to Ski, Snowboard, Stay, and Eat in the 30 Best U.S. Ski Resorts (2nd ed) (Paperback)
The book has good overall background on each state's skiing, then goes into detail on each of the resorts it rates as the best in the US. Though I would have liked more than 30 places to be covered (Breckenridge, Kirkwood, Grand Targhee and some other very good resorts are missing) the areas that are covered have good detail about the background and history of the resort, the skiing (recommended trails are broken out by ability level) where to stay and where to dine. It is an invaluable reference when going to these places for the first time, and I have used it at many of these resorts to find the good trails and good bars and restaurants. It is very readable, and to the point, and generally matches what you'd hear from locals and people who've been there. There is also an introduction that includes general tips and information for planning a ski vacation. Well worth reading when planning a vacation, and referring to when there.
