Best Skiing in Russia in February
February usually brings the deepest snowpack of the season to many northern-hemisphere resorts, with cold temperatures that keep snow in good condition.
It is also the busiest month: UK half-term, most of the rotating French school holidays and US Presidents' Day weekend fall in February, so book early and expect queues at popular resorts.
