I skied with a gang of Ukranians in Gudauri, Georgia.
They said their snow was good but the terrain at Gudauri was bigger and better.
Kamchatka is awesome but weather can be a problem. Windy.
Sochi is legit.
Don't know about Lake Baikal but heard it's Lake Louise cold.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

South Russia = wet snow
East Russia = freezing cold
Ukraine = flat and cold
Iran has best snow in the region. Deep(ish), dry, light. But probably not wise to visit for now (if from the West).
Georgia is a good compromise. Russia lite.

@Mike Pow, @Weathercam and others, thanks for the replies. I'm not planning a trip at this stage, but thought it looked worth adding to the 'To Do' list.

Bit misleading regarding Iran - like anywhere, snow conditions vary. I skied there in 2011 (Dizin) and it was thin and hard-packed. Had not been any significant fresh snow for several weeks. It wasn't that cold, the sun was strong enough to soften up the hardpack even in December. Maybe later in the winter is typically better, not sure.
