Face it: No matter how loud the holiday carols are cranked, the mall is not a winter wonderland, and never will be. Where is a delightfully dreamy, and perfect pick-me-up place to cure holiday withdrawal? The white, shimmery slopes of ski resorts with a bunch of gal pals, we say! We’ve rounded up the best femme-fabulous ski clinics in the U.S., so no matter where you’ll be come 2008, a sick slope isn’t too far away.
Ski, Spa & Sip: Squaw Valley, California not only pioneered the women’s ski movement back in ‘76, but today is home to some of the world’s hottest female skiers who teach a three-day women-only ski clinic as part of Squaw’s new Sapphire Package. Add to that vino tastings and divinely long spa time and you’ve got heaven served. Clinics start January 4.
