Alyeska Resort, which gets more than 650 inches of annual snowfall, boasts some of the most incredible scenery on earth, with both glacier and ocean views. Experts will love heading down North America's longest continuous double-black diamond run or challenging themselves with the available heli-skiing and cat skiing.

 

In the evening, you can look for the northern lights dancing across the sky as you night ski. Or, take a break from the slopes and hop aboard the winter aerial tram for a scenic ride to the top of Mt. Alyeska.
