By Robert Choquette Ah, spring. The scent of something new in the air. The vision of spring snow, smooth as white velvet.
Spring snow is easy to ski, a gift for skier egos.
Skiers call it corn snow or simply corn. For most of us, spring skiing is the second ski season. Here's my pick, in alphabetical order, of eleven North American alpine ski destinations that enjoy truly endless ski seasons. Utah resorts enjoy an average of 12.7 meters of light, dry snow falls. Utah is also blessed by very convenient access to its major resorts, thanks to the proximity of Salt Lake City International Airport located less than an hour's drive from seven of them.
