2015-16: A ski season in photos
As green grass and flowers continue to poke through the melting snow snow in Ski Country, we can no longer pretend that spring isn’t here. We’ve been through the all the stages of denial (anger, bargaining and depression) and now that we’ve made it to acceptance, it’s time to reminisce about the all the joy the 2015-16 winter brought. How do we do that? By combing through hundreds of Instagram and Facebook photos taken at top ski resorts. Here are some of the most iconic and well-liked of the Internet.

Originally from the icy trails of New Jersey, I moved West to pursue powder and a career in writing and editing. Now in Aspen, Colo. and working for Ski.com managing the website and blog content, I couldn't be happier. You'll find me skiing at Aspen Mountain or Aspen Highlands in the winter and mountain biking at Snowmass in the summer.
