I would love to go there too. I have some friends who went ski-ing in Turkey last year and they preferred it to the snobby, expensive European resorts.
Looks wonderful

Palandöken is by far the best if you like challenging skiing. Uludaag is Turkey's answer to snobby European resorts.

European AND American, in fact ESPECIALLY American! In fact, Turkey is the answer to the whole snobby world!

There are great places to ski in America that are more about the skiing than status. I have always prefered the utah slopes compared to the colorado resports.

Now that's something I have never done. I'm too afraid of breaking something.
Then the prospect of strapping long inflexible wooden things to my feet and hurling down an ice covered slope at high speed is not appealing in the least.
Then, I really don't like being cold, or having the prospect of snow flakes finding places to get next to my skin.
It's amazing the different tastes we have...to each their own...

I agree Keith, I have gone skiing in Colorado and Utah and love Snowbird & Deer Valley much better than Vail or Copper Mountain.

Don't have to travel far for cross country skiing. We have nice parks with trails or you can make your own trail.
