30% of Americans who want to vacation during the next winter season stated they will be going to ski resorts. (This is an increase of 12% from the results from last year.)

- Colorado’s Steamboat Springs
- Colo.’s Breckenridge.
- Huge Sky, Montana
- Utah City Park
- N.C.’s Sugar Mountain

You’d best get moving quickly if you want to be one of them. People aren’t waiting until the last minute, according to the study, which finds that 71% of winter travelers have already made arrangements for either their holiday travel or their winter (non-holiday) vacation.
However, if you want to have some undiscovered fun this winter and want to dodge the crowds, try out these 10 mountains that you’ve probably never heard of.
