Alta, Utah
Alta's motto: "The greatest snow on earth"
The motto does not lie.
This is my favorite place for skiing.
And staying in the fabulous Alta Peruvian Lodge.
Went there for some 25 years.
In 2005 Flat Stanley went skiing all over Utah. Check it out!

Zagreb, Croatia general country information
The city and country of my birth. Love to visit there, many good friends are still around. And family.
Twice was a Fulbright scholar there at the University of Zagreb and the National and University Library.
The life in Zagreb is lively and diverse.
Nearby is Medvednica, a mountain where I like to go hiking. In my youth, I was an active and enthusiastic member of the University Mountaineering Society "Velebit." They are still at it. It was named after Velebit, a rugged and beautiful mountain that became a national park.
Talking about national parks: Plitvice National Park is a unique district of lakes and cascades; great for hiking.
Gorski Kotar is another one of my favorite area for hiking and mountaneering - parts are still wild and unspoiled, especially around mountain Bjelolasica. Look for Bijele Stijene (White Rocks) and Samarske Stijene (Samarske Rocks) - stunning!
