Want to be a ski bum? Why not sell off everything you own (minus your skis) and head to one of these towns and live forever. We run into them every season. They come in all forms. Tall men wearing cowboy hats feeding their dogs chicken wings out back, short men who think they are God's gift to fooseball, and old weathered men who take all your money in poker. Who wouldn't want to be these guys?
If you think this is the life for you, then maybe you are wondering just which town holds your future life. Well Pete Thomas of GrindTV.com has done some homework, and here are his top 5 towns to become a ski bum:
1. Bozeman, MT
2. Jackson Hole, Wy
3. Salt Lake City, Utah
4. Whistler-Blackcomb, British Columbia
5. Telluride, Co

Excellent find. Even though I haven't been to 60% of this list this makes sense to me as far as the quality of skiing. But if you're factoring in the social scene, It really surprises me that Bozeman is so high.
ReplyDeleteWell, the article does say that the ease of getting a job and place to live factors in to the rankings, and Bozeman apparently is a cheap place to live.
