As spring begins approaching faster and faster, nothing is quite as enjoyable this time of year than soaking up the utter beauty of the mountains and vast collections of powdery snow in a winter wonderland. The brash image that is often times correlated with skiing is waiting in long lines, filled with bands of people waiting to share the same experience. It’s such a bummer to arrive at the mountain dressed in your best gear, with your mind filled with anticipation towards the peaceful serenity you’re about to endure, all to be shattered when you glance around the resort to find yourself immersed in an overall clutter of countless people. There’s not an escape from school or work quite like an adventurous adrenaline pumping afternoon spent under the bright blue sky with the serenity of being able to roam around the wintry mountainsides.

In attempt to reclaim this peaceful escape, ski resorts across North America are introducing a fresh unprecedented experience. A plethora of resorts have curated a remedy for the common clutter found at almost all resorts… the solution: offering the exhilarating experience of enjoying the slopes completely isolated. A little bit crazy? Maybe. One thing is for sure, the notion of complete freedom while journeying down freshly covered mountains is far more appealing than having to wait in lines. Presented below is a quick glance at a few of the American ski resorts that are introducing this immunity.
