Sorry, ChrisC's Japan link went to the French URL. The correct link I posted is paywalled, so hopefully ChrisC can correct that.

Next month....

I somehow used up all my free articles by clicking on articles more than once. They have a decent travel/ski section, which is surprising given the current state of the US Newspaper Industry.

What a surprise: an older writer from England (Dave Watts, of the Where To Ski And Snowboard book series) votes for Courchevel, a resort that many have noted feels like a British colonial outpost.

At the bottom of the articles are "where to stay" plugs for London ski-holiday operators -- the same format as his otherwise excellent books, which (as I've groused in the past) makes them feel more like paid advertisements. I'm not expecting these mainstream pieces to laud obscure ski areas but do they always have to be the same usual suspects that don't need further promotion?

laud obscure ski areas

Powderhounds.com does a fair job of that and skiresort.info provides basic info even for the very obscure.
