Winter is snow. The magical experience can be about the sports such as skiing, snowboarding, cross country, snowshoeing, and snowplay, but it can just about being in the snow.
Spend more time with friends and family, and more time in the snow. Come together with like-minded people who love the mountains and the snow.
