Snow is a funny thing, there's like a hundred different kinds of it. So there are a hundred or so skiing setups you could employ, and getting it wrong could mean painful travel.

Virgin unconsolidated snow, on the other hand, while best traveled with any wide/short ski (if slopes are mild and vegetation not dense) or snowshoe (other cases), is always really hard unless you're going down a steep hill you ascended with a lift. It beats walking in shoes, that's about it.

On the other end of the spectrum, late season when the snow is old and hard enough to support skis, you can zoom around whole areas in a fraction of time of any other season.
