More on the NEW Lost Ski Areas of Southern Vermont:
"Hidden amongst the hills and mountains of southern Vermont are the remnants of sixty former ski areas, their slopes returning to forest and their lifts decaying. Today, only fourteen remain open and active in southern Vermont. Though they offer some incredible skiing, most lack the intimate, local feel of these lost ski trails. Jeremy Davis, creator of the New England Lost Ski Areas Project, looks into the over-investment local competition, weather variation, changing skier habits, insurance costs and just plain bad luck that caused these areas to succumb and melt back into the landscape. From the family operated Hogback in Windham County to Clinton Gilbert's farm in Woodstock, where the very first rope tow began operation in the winter of 1934, these once popular ski areas left an indelible trace on the hearts of their communities and the history of southern Vermont."
Each book features never before published photographs, maps, and memories of these former ski areas in Southern Vermont and across the White Mountains. Each book also contains information on the remaining small, community-type ski areas that still operate in the region.
