There’s a distinct giddy excitement among the ski and snowboard community this time of year. As the fall leaves finally drop to the ground and most people start digging out their hats and mittens, skiers and riders are sharing long-range forecasts with their group chats, pouring over new trail maps, and thinking about which backcountry adventures to take this year. Moreover, Airbnb is in on the soon-to-be winter fun, announcing its most wish-listed ski-in, ski-out properties in the world, including one very special property right here in the United States.

I’ve been meaning to write this post for a long time now but could never quite articulate my thoughts as eloquently as I would have liked. Therefore, I have procrastinated on it until I realized that sometimes, there’s no need for eloquence. Instead, I will make up for it in length by keeping this as concise as possible.
