I know all of you out there are obsessed with keeping up with my reading list. If you’re interested in a take on “Why the Corporate Ski Industry is Bad for Skiing, Ski Towns, and the Environment,” check out Downhill Slide, by Hal Clifford. It’s a great read, and should make you think about where you hit the slopes next time.

By the way, the best guide to the Eastern Sierra that I’ve been able to find is Sue Irwin’s book. Check it out before you head out there next time.
