Being named to SKI Magazine's list of Top 100 Instructors is truly an achievement. The selection process is very competitive, and SKI's panel had a challenging job of selecting only 100 instructors from the pool of tremendous talent. It is a close race every year. Here is a list of instructors earning Honorable Mention honors from our 2002 Top 100 nominations. Use this list as you would the top 100 and book a lesson with one of these standout instructors-they come highly recommended.
