Peak ski season is in full swing, with a winter wonderland welcoming enthusiastic snow-lovers to carve out many of the world’s best slopes. But the exhilaration needn’t end when the pistes close: let your hair down under that ski hat and discover our favorite après-ski scenes around the globe, including two Colorado Rockies resorts that cater to both the refined and the rowdy, a glamorous casino-dotted ski town straddling the Nevada and California borders, and a Canadian gem that pulsates with live music and good times. Or check out the Eastern seaboard at Killington, where you’re guaranteed to have a "killer" time. Of course, no list would be complete without a sprinkling of alpine villages – we're keen on four evergreen après-ski hot-spots that have provided tried-and-true nighttime fun to generations of skiers. And, for those of you who refuse to let summer signal your last descent, we’ve even thrown in one South American ski town where you can get your après-ski fix between June and September.
