Ski magazine has ranked Sun Valley as No. 7 in its annual report card of North America’s top skiing destinations.
The magazine ranked Sun Valley four spots higher this year than last year, a boost that coincides with the arrival of a new gondola, designed to speed the trip to the top of the mountain.
The rankings are published in the October issue, due to hit newsstands any day. It’s the magazine’s 22nd annual survey of the continent’s top 30 resorts, and rankings are determined by readers of the magazine, which has a circulation of 400,000.
Sun Valley won praise for its groomed trails and placed in the top 10 for service, mountain food, lodging, dining and off-hill activities.
It finished one spot ahead of Squaw Valley in California and behind Snowmass in Colorado.
