Editorial Review: Product Description: The White Mountains of New Hampshire are world renowned for the array of skiing opportunities offered to every skier, from beginner to gold medal Olympian. Today over a dozen resorts entice tourists and locals each year with their well-manicured trails, high-speed lifts and slope-side lodging. But scattered throughout this region, the ghosts of former ski areas can still be found. In the White Mountains alone, sixty ski areas have closed since the 1930s. Author Jeremy Davis has compiled rare photographs, maps and personal memories to ensure that these beloved ski outposts, cherished by generations of skiers, are given recognition for transforming the White Mountains into a premier ski destination. Average Rating:
 Rating: - First of its kind - and hopefully not the last!This is the first ever book I have seen about defunct alpine ski areas in the Northeast. While other ski history books have touched upon the issue, The Lost Ski Areas of the White Mountains is the first I have seen that offers rare photos and descriptions of even the most obscure operations. The only drawback of the book is that the photos are in black and white - nonetheless, it is certainly a great read and a valued part of my library!
