description: Snow-capped peaks, vast open spaces, and the invigorating aromas of pine and cedarwood. The mountain setting is idyllic, the way of life relaxed and rustic, and the houses built there reflect a passion for the outdoors and a flair for the unconventional. Snow Country takes an intimate tour inside the quaint chalets, rustic cabins, and extravagant mountain retreats found in some of the top western ski resorts. Lush, stylish photography captures the casual mountain style of these unique hideaways set amidst such stunning scenarios as the Colorado Rockies, California's Sierra Nevada, and Whistler, Canada. The diversity of interiors ranges from cozy pioneer cabins filled with antiques and family heirlooms, and European-style homes, to modern structures of glass, concrete, and metal. This glorious visual tribute to nature and her surroundings will appeal to anyone who lives in the mountains, or just dreams about it.
