    Powder Burn: Arson, Money, and Mystery on Vail Mountain
    by Daniel Glick
    On the face of it, this is the story of unsolved arson at a high-glamour resort, a mystery packed with suspects that range from crusty ski bums to radical tree huggers to the resort's own corporate honchos. But underlying this entertaining true-life plot is a greater theme that is playing out across America. Here, tensions mount between the progress-minded shareholders of Vail Resorts Inc., environmentalists, and locals who simply pine for the days when they weren't priced out of having a meal--or a life--in Vail, Colorado. Elsewhere, similar hostility brews over conflicting interests in pricey tourist regions like Taos, New Mexico; the Florida Keys; and the Hamptons of New York. So while Powder Burn is an intriguing tale on its own, it also serves as a snapshot of our country as it struggles with its final growing pains. The modern corporatization of Vail Mountain is in direct contrast to its past, when a hard-drinking fellow could ride his horse into a bar and turn himself into local legend. Daniel Glick, a special correspondent for Newsweek, masterfully uses his reporter's eye for detail to deliver the spirit and breathtaking scenery of the Rocky Mountain West. He introduces personalities in rapid-fire succession, but, to his credit, the reader never feels overwhelmed or confused. The descriptions are so vivid--from the environmentalist tracking lynx paw prints through the snow to the vacationing company president staking out a Disney World pay phone as he receives updates on the 1998 fire's damage--that they remain fixed in the reader's mind as the story unfolds. It's a story that makes interesting reading for skiers, environmentalists, or anyone intrigued by the unfolding drama in our last wild places. --Jodi Mailander Farrell - Amazon.com

    Ski the Whole Mountain: How to Ski Any Condition at Any Time
    Ski the Whole Mountain: How to Ski Any Condition at Any Time
    by Eric Deslauriers, Rob Deslauriers, Hank Devre
    Book Description: Eric and Rob DesLauriers are the perfect athletes to teach someone how to ski the entire mountain — not just the easy trails but steeps, bumps, and difficult snow. The authors are among the best-known extreme skiers in North America and have appeared in 23 ski movies. Over the past 15 years they have not only pushed the envelope of extreme skiing but have discovered a simple yet radical way to teach it, focusing on three basic moves. The result: beautiful, controlled skiing turns in any condition from powder to Sierra cement. In addition, Ski the Whole Mountain provides safe and effective difficult terrain skiing techniques, including basic avalanche awareness and safety, and features 200 full-color photographs of actual terrain challenges and the keys to skiing them effectively.
