With excellent photos, as you'd imagine from NatGeo. In the Northeast, North Conway and Stowe made the list. Not sure if I'm surprised on Stowe, considering it's dedicated to one resort? I've never skied it so I don't know what the town is like.
I'm also sort of surprised not to see any eastern Canadian resorts on the list. You would think Mont Sutton or something might get the nod for the european style ski town.
Anway, here is the rundown:
