Summer skiing in the Northern hemisphere

With the southern hemisphere resorts not open yet, there are still some place to ski in Europe and North America.  The main thing to look for are the resorts with glaciers and to mention a couple where late season skiing and summer skiing can be available, (please always check before booking somewhere, remember we are always reliant on the weather in this sport)
Some places to keep an eye on in Europe are Zermatt in Switzerland with 5 summer ski lifts, the Presena Glacier in Italy and the Stubai Glacier in Austria.  Unfortunately one of my favourite places to ski at Tignes is now closed although it does have a glacier.
In North America the Blackcomb glacier at Whistler and Timberline at Oregon.
Good luck and enjoy the summer skiing in Europe.
