Friday Around  the Planet December 02, 2022  This week:  Can't decide if you need a winter getaway or to get away from winter? We've got you covered.  Winter resorts you can enjoy even if you hate skiing Who doesn’t love a mountain town? Charming, snow-capped villages waiting to welcome both the skiers who must get in 25 runs before they even think about après ski – and those who just…après.    Now that Thanksgiving leftovers are (and should be) gone and Christmas decor looms everywhere, we’re all thinking about the impending winter and closing out the year. A super-cozy ski town is just the idea to bring everyone together.    We’ve selected six US winter wonderlands that, in addition to offering deep powder and steep vert, take the hygge to the next level. Grab your winter boots and settle in for some cocoa or hot toddies, sleigh rides and snow tubes. It’s the most wonderful time of the year, after all.
