AirFlare enables trusted contacts to request your location via the app, and it even works in remote, low-signal environments. It is designed for non-emergency moments as well, and is perfect when a person is late returning or needs to be found by friends. It requires no additional gear and does not drain the battery life of the smartphone. Unlike GPS apps that constantly run in the background, AirFlare remains completely dormant-drawing zero battery-until it's needed.

WeatherIt's always snowing somewhere, and for skiers and riders, that's where the magic happens. Fresh snow is what turns ordinary runs into powder days, and every skier knows the thrill of waking up to see a few extra inches (or feet) on the mountain report. Whether you're chasing the deepest conditions or just living vicariously through other people's powder days, it's worth knowing where the flakes are stacking up. These are the resorts that will receive the most snow over the next week and beyond.

Visiting Vermont in the winter is like stepping into a classic children's book. Chimneys puff delicate swirls of smoke over cozy villages, covered bridges cross icy creeks, and kids in brightly colored snowsuits careen down sledding hills. The temperature is brisk, snow is falling, and everyone's a little more jolly. And why shouldn't they be? Winter in the Green Mountain State is as fun as it is beautiful.

Home to the White Mountains, New Hampshire has a vibrant ski culture that few places can match. "The best things about skiing in New Hampshire are the authentic skiing vibes and its variety of great resorts within a stone's throw of each other, allowing adventurous people to explore multiple resorts while on one trip-an experience very similar to what you would find in Lake Tahoe,"

It's hard not to love a nice cruiser ski run. Making your way down the mountain while enjoying as many turns as possible, sometimes that's the best thing a skier or snowboarder could ask for. Some resorts feature top to bottom runs, extending for miles and miles over thousands of feet. If something like that sounds appealing to you, you might want to take a look at this ranking of the world's longest ski runs.

Utah is home to some of the deepest ski areas in the United States, with some resorts recording hundreds of inches of snow every year. It doesn't necessarily have the oldest ski history in the United States, but it does have a few ski areas that are 80+ years old. These are the 4 oldest (and still active) ski areas in Utah. 4 Oldest Ski Areas in Utah 4. Snowbasin - Opened in 1940 13 lifts 115 trails 325 inches of snowfall on average

New England is full of ski areas, from single, surface lift fed hills to larger resort experiences. Some of the oldest ski areas in the United States are located in New England, in addition to some of the most well known (to be clear, New England is a set geographic and cultural region that includes Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut).

But to overlook the South is to overlook Boone, North Carolina, the "Ski Capital of the South." Not only does Boone have three nearby ski areas, each within 19 miles of the next, but it's beautiful to get to: The town is tucked just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, aka "America's Favorite Drive," which runs for 469-miles through the Appalachian Mountains.

Densely populated with cold, snowy winters, the Empire State has one of the oldest and most accessible networks of ski resorts in the country. It's home to three major mountain ranges-the Adirondacks, Catskills, and parts of the Appalachians-along with a thick sprinkling of steep, glacier-carved hills. Enthusiasm for the sport swelled when Lake Placid hosted the 1932 Olympic Games, and under the New Deal, the Civilian Conservation Core helped supercharge the development of New York's trails and infrastructure.
