If you drool over chalets and dream of pistes, Curbed Ski may well be your jam. Each day, editor Ryan Dunfee is cooking up a snowy batch of real estate porn, high altitude restaurant and retail news, snowfall celebration, mountain gossip, and more. Already today, Curbed Ski offers up <a href="http://ski.curbed.com/archives/2012/12/brook-shields-former-sun-valley-mansion-on-the-block.php">interiors of Brooke Shields' Sun Valley mansion</a>; a <a href="http://ski.curbed.com/archives/2012/12/the-tahoe-heat-map-where-to-eat-this-winter.php">heatmap of where to eat around Lake Tahoe</a>; and a <a href="http://ski.curbed.com/archives/2012/12/snow-gallery-december-20th.php">photogallery of all the snow that's blanketed the nation's slopes from east to west</a> this week.

Think you're up to the task?</p> <p>This is a freelance gig with commensurate pay; you'll be able to work from anywhere you want so long as it keeps your ear close to ground for all things architectural, residential, and ridiculous. Interested parties should shoot an email to <a href="mailto:jobs@curbed.com">jobs@curbed.com</a> with a brief description of yourself and why you fit the bill.
