If you had the opportunity to go anywhere in the world to ski,

1. Chamonix/La Grave
2. AK Range/Wrangell-St. Elias (tour)
3. Kashmir (Gulmarg)
4. Kazakhstan
5. South America (Chile)

A lot of good ideas here. Please keep them coming.

Does that include surgery on knee you fuck up falling off the chairlift?

Rodgers Pass/Golden

I read about place called blue mountain in a ski canada magazine

Be footloose at Eldora!

Tirol, Austria for a winter and get the Tirol Snowcard, I think about 84 ski areas, hundreds of lifts, Ischgl, Solden, Hintertux, Obergurgl, Kuhtai, Innsbruck areas, Kitzbuhl, Zillertal Arena. Only thing missing is St. Anton....

Probably somewhere on the east coast?

I didn't frequent here as much in the hugh days but he lives on in notoriety
did he get booted or self inflicted expulsion? can't recall

Antarctica for sure, all the other places mentioned are easily doable at a lot less money. Unless you do a AK heli trip based from a yacht, with Russian hookers.

Alex's trip to Svalbard, or where ever in the hell it was is the arctic version or Antarctica, would be an option, but they don't have penguins ( polar bears would cool, if they didn't eat you.)

Had to really think about this one. As a fan of northern climes and remote locales, I'm gonna have to go with Norway. That lodge Plugboots linked to would do just fine. Japan, South America and the Alps also rate pretty high in my book.

I did Lofoten lodge back to back with Artic Heli a few years ago. AMAZING trip. But $20k is barely going to cover the beer tab on that trip!

I've always thought these mountains might be interesting. Probably have to take a boat or ski plane to get to them. And polar bears might be a problem.
