Moroznaya, Russia

Kamchatka is the peninsula at the very northern-west tip of Russia, next to Alaska. It is a paradise for heli-boarding, but this small basic resort, Moroznaya, can be used by beginners or to practice. The region is underpopulated, so there was no need in many ski stations around, and only this one was developed. It is a very small and poor station used mostly by locals. Located 37 km from the main town Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.
