The beauty of Colorado’s Beaver Creek is its classy vibe and its long, perfect-pitch runs. When the heavens unleash the white stuff, you’ll still be hitting fresh powder hours after nearby Vail has been tracked out. And once the freshies are gone, Beaver Creek does a stellar job of grooming and offers a fun array of steep slopes for you to bomb. Beware, though: With fewer crowds and shorter lift lines here, you run the risk of tiring out in a hurry. 800-608-4849; www.beavercreek.snow.com.

What to wear:
No doubt Beaver Creek has a “look,” particularly for the women. Follow our gear suggestions and you won’t have to compromise performance or break the bank to fit in.
