There is no comparison to Powder Magazine for hard core skiers. The writers and photographers that contribute to Powder Magazine are passionate skiers. They are in it for the love of the sport and it shows in their work. The magazine has the best photography spanning everything from extreme stunts in Alaska to Sunsets over the Alps. Every year Powder has a fantastic photo annual that is larger in size and stapled so as to have better 2 page pictures. As a kid I would cut out the pictures and paste them all over my room and locker. As an adult, I just enjoy the pictures and writing and keep it on my coffee table.
