Where is your favorite place to ski and why?

My favorite place to ski is in the Dolomite mountains of Rome, Italy. It has gorgeous groomed trails, rustic huts, and sunny skies. Plus the people are so nice and the food is amazing!
 
Transcript: "My favorite place in the whole world to ski. And this is a hard one because I've gotten to ski in a lot of amazing places. But I would have to say [INAUDIBLE] Rome, Italy remains my favorite. It's up in the Dolomite mountains. It's absolutely gorgeous, you step out the door, and you're on the ski trail. And there are so many kilometers of gorgeous groomed trails. There's all these rustic little huts up in the mountains. So you could pack a little backpack with snacks and ski from one hut to another. I think that's pretty cool. I love that kind of culture. And the fact that in Italy it's often sunny there. And the people are so nice, and the food's amazing. It's honestly quite hard to beat."

My favorite place to ski will actually got a map right there, but probably New Zealand for just the scenic measures, the good food, the good people. And I would say for racing and where we normally travel the dolomites in Italy, Italy, like pasta, the coffee, the people, the mountains and of most importantly, the sunshine is my favorite there. So, I would say, if I had to pick one place to go, cross country ski, it would be Italy for so many reasons. And I've also Weirdly had good races there. So I'm a little bit biased but I think just brings good energy. Good views, perfect tracks, and sunny skiing,

This is going to sound very parochial, but my favorite place to ski in the entire world is a little place, called Corky Nordic, ski area. And it's about 10 miles, south west of Two. Harbors Minnesota, and about 20 miles about 15 miles Northeast of the city of Duluth is a 10-kilometer ski trail. That is still largely the same Trail. It was back in the 1950s and what a gem it is. It's it gets, it's very narrow, it's see. Eagle Traxxas, only classic skiing. And there really is not another Trail like it. Anywhere that I've come across in this modern day, it was he in the terrain? Even though was designed way back then, works really well with modern Classics. Keys, that kick well and move fast. And it's my favorite place to go. Is always an awesome experience there. So if you're ever even up in northern Minnesota in the arrowhead, the bottom of the arrowhead of the state of Minnesota near to Harper's Corky, Nordic is my favorite place after a lifetime of skiing all over the world, still my favorite place. So go check it out.

My favorite place to ski has to be serviced High School in Anchorage, Alaska. Because that's right across the street from my house and it's just like a big part of me. I've gone to a lot of cool places Finland for one is a great place to ski. I really like Italy but right across the street just like has a place in my in my soul and so I really I think that's got to be my favorite place to ski just because it's a part of me.
