Summary

Western US ski resorts are experiencing poor snow conditions due to drought and warm temperatures. If you have a ski trip planned, consider booking a backup trip to a nearby destination. Hotels near ski resorts have wide-open availability and relatively low rates in March. You can book refundable travel and cancel if your ski trip doesn’t pan out. Alternative destinations include national parks, cities, and hot springs. Some popular destinations include Moab, Utah; Denver, Colorado; Jackson Hole, Wyoming; Taos, New Mexico; and Lake Tahoe, California.
