2023 - 2024 Far West Skier's Guide - 4

In 2023, the FWSA
conducted its 90th Annual
Convention in Boise, Idaho.
FWSA members had the
opportunity to interact
with representatives from
the ski industry to learn
about and plan future
snowsports and other
travel destinations.
Many councils and clubs
offer their own travel
programs in addition
to FWSA travel.
