There are few outdoor adventures that are more exhilarating than Alaska skiing, and in a state this big, there’s bound to be lots of opportunities. For some fantastic cross-country skiing trails, one needs to look no further than Alaska’s Parks System, and the other great spots like the Tongas National Forest Skiing Area and Chugach State Park. Downhill lovers also have plenty of slopes to choose from, such as Moose Mountain Ski Area, where the vert is long and the waits are short.
