Freeskier magazine just ranked the top 5 ski resorts on a powder day.  We must say that we mostly agree with this list.  For us, the top 5 zones for freeskiing in North America are Tahoe, Utah, Jackson, & Whistler.  Interior B.C. should get a mention here, though.  We would replace Heavenly with Revelstoke…
