Colorado Powder Keg: Ski Resorts and the Environmental Movement
Michael W. Childers
The first environmental history of skiing in Colorado. Traces the recreation's rise in popularity as a way of examining major changes in public land management in the American West during the last century. Shows how what started as an innocent leisurely pursuit has morphed into a multi-billion dollar business that forever changed the landscape of Colorado and brought with it serious environmental consequences.
