 GORP - Northeast Cross-Country Ski Roundup
This Northeastern ski roundup was written for cross-country skiers with curious minds and wandering souls— skiers itching to adventure beyond the boundaries of their own backyards.
Every ski area has a story to tell, whether it be a ski-through outhouse, an old potato farm, or a homesick Scandinavian host.
When you push the "wax pocket" (the center part of the ski) into the snow, some of the snow crystals need to become embedded in the wax to provide the friction, or "kick." The trick to waxing is to match the hardness of the wax with the sharpness of the snow crystals.

 Ski resort - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ski areas typically have one or more chair lifts for moving skiers rapidly to the top of hills, and to interconnect the various pistes.
Ski resorts often have other activities to engage in besides skiing and snowboarding, such as snowmobiling, sledding, horse-drawn sleds, dog-sledding, ice-skating indoor or outdoor swimming and hottubbing, game rooms, and local forms of entertainment, such as clubs, cinema, theatre and caberets.
Ski resorts may be self-contained and entirely devoted to ski tourism (for example Vail ski resort) or they may be near a village or town that had a significant existence before the ski resort was built, such as Jackson Hole, Wyoming or Park City, Utah.

 Ski Area Citizens' Coalition (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.unc.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
Voluntary Environmental Performance of Western Ski Areas”, the study validated many issues that the conservation community has had of the ski industry’s voluntary environmental program, confirmed that the Ski Area Environmental Scorecard is an accurate and useful third-party tool to gauge ski resorts’ environmental policies and management.
The Ski Area Environmental Scorecard strives to differentiate between ski areas that are engaging in environmentally sound practices on the ground versus those that merely claim to do so.
While there will always be environmental impacts from creating and operating a ski resort, the intent of the Scorecard is to rate resorts on the environmental performance of their current management, not on the impacts from the time of the creation of the resort.

 WPTZ.com - WNNE - Arrowhead Off List Of Lost Ski Areas
CLAREMONT, N.H. While many ski areas, such as Whaleback Mountain in Enfield, have been lost in recent years, the Arrowhead is one ski area that has managed to pull itself off the list of the lost.
