I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'ski resort' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'swine bagged in downs stewed' is the wordplay.
'swine' becomes 'boar' (male pig).
'bagged in' indicates putting letters inside.
'stewed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'downs' with letters rearranged gives 'snowd'.
'boar' placed inside 'snowd' is 'SNOWBOARD'.

'offering' acts as a link.
