Yes we do have ski resorts in Australia and last week I was in one of them - Mt Hotham. It was fantastic and has had a bunch of snow since I was there. #mthotham @vailresorts.bsky.social @epicpassofficial.bsky.social #skiandsnowboard #snowtravel

Loved the quirkiness of The Sparrow Hotel in Boise, part of The Nest - bird themed hotels. Naughty number seven sheep was hiding behind the curtain! #visitboise #thesparrow #idaho #thenest #travelwriter #boutiquehotels

There is something special about exploring in the landscapes of winter. Galena Lodge has plenty of trails for snowshoeing and Nordic skiing, and the lodge is a cosy space to have lunch or a drink afterwards. #visitidaho #galenalodge #snowshoeing #winteradventures

I discovered a fabulous ski resort today - Brundage in Idaho. It’s a skier’s mountain, with a fantastic vibe. Highly recommended! #brundage #skimountain #travelwriter #visitidaho #greatamericanwest
