USA Today put out a list recently of the 10 best US ski towns. See here
From #10 to #1: McCall, Bend, Stowe, Aspen, Lake Placid, Breckenridge, Truckee, Jackson, Mammoth Lakes, North Conway.
A couple surprises for me and places I've never been are McCall and Truckee. I've driven by Truckee and never stopped. I thought it was just an Idaho Springs type of roadside retail strip, but maybe I'm wrong?
I've visited all the others and they are legit, although I don't know that I would agree with the order. Are Mammoth Lakes and North Conway supposed to be the two best US ski towns? I would disagree with that. My vote for number one would go to Aspen.
