  • A Network-Based Approach for the Study of Criticalities in Ski-Resorts
    International Snow Science Workshop Grenoble – Chamonix Mont-Blanc - 2013 A network-based approach for the study of criticalities in ski-resorts Valerio De Biagi1,2*, Barbara Frigo1,2 and Bernardino Chiaia1,2 1 Dept. of Structural, Geotechnical and Building Engineering, Politecnico di Torino, ITALY 2Mountain Risk Research Team – MRR Team, Verrès (AO) – Italy ABSTRACT: The correct management of ski-resorts requires wide knowledge in mountain hazards, as well as a large experience. Usually ski-resorts cover a surface that encompasses more than one side of a mountain (or more than one valley); for this reason, the meteorological conditions may vary locally and rapid decisions have to be taken in order to ensure the safety of the skiers. Any intervention on the structure of the resort may entail cascade events and other critical situations. For example, a temporary closure of a lift may create large queues in other parts of the ski-area. In the same way, a closure of a ski-slope might engender overcrowding in other ski runs. All these situations are potential sources of risk. We propose an approach to the study of criticalities in ski-resorts by means of transportation network approaches based on the ability of the skiers and the grade of the ski run. An example is made on the Antagnod branch of MonteRosaSki resort. The effects of a sudden interruption of part of it, i.e., ski- slope closure or lift temporary interruption, are simulated. KEYWORDS: Ski-resort management, Graph theory, Criticalities. others (2005) made a statistics of the average 1 INTRODUCTION speeds of skiers in three different ski resorts in the US.

    Media Contact: Patsy Popejoy 970-922-2285 or [email protected] ON-MOUNTAIN RESTAURANTS SATISFY APPETITES MORNING, NOON AND NIGHT. “That’s the Beauty of Snowmass!” Skiing and riding on Snowmass’ 3,362 acres of spectacular terrain makes it easy to work up a serious appetite. Lucky thing, a bounty of on-mountain eateries keep hunger pains at bay. Here’s where to go for everything from a hearty breakfast to a quick, grab ‘n go bite to a convivial lunch-time repast. Still hungry? night-time dining adventures are offered as well. Gwyn’s High Alpine – This long–time locals’ favorite spot at the top of the Alpine Springs Lift is popular for breakfast dishes like huevos rancheros and cinnamon French toast. At lunch, sit down for an elegant “white-tablecloth” lunch of grilled elk medallions, specialty pastas, Kobe beef burgers and more, or go more casual with wild game stew and apple crisps at the Café and Bar. Dining on the sunny deck is offered as well. Non-skiers may ride the lift for lunch. Elk Camp Restaurant – Think gourmet deli, complete with cooking stations offering up rotisserie chicken, artisan pizzas, grass fed beef chili, a wholesome salad bar, and cookies and pastries from an in-house bakeshop – all easily accessed (with or without skis) from Base Village via the Elk Camp gondola.

Vail Resorts operates in three highly integrated segments: Mountain, Lodging, and Real Estate. Vail Resorts’ share price is 22% undervalued because it does not fully incorporate the megatrend of Millennials spending more money on experiences.

  • Socially Constructed Environmental Issues and Sport: a Content Analysis of Ski Resort Environmental Communications Sam Spector
    Socially Constructed Environmental Issues and Sport: A Content Analysis of Ski Resort Environmental Communications Sam Spector, B.Sc. Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Applied Health Sciences (Sport Management) Under the supervision of Chris Chard, PhD & Cheryl Mallen, PhD Faculty of Applied Health Sciences, Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario Sam Spector © January, 2012 Abstract Due to the impact of sport on the natural environment (UN, 2010), it is important to examine the interplay between environmental issues and sport (Hums, 2010, Mallen & Chard, 2011; Nauright & Pope, 2009; Ziegler, 2007). This research content analyzed 82 ski resort environmental communications (SRECs). These communications were rated for their prominence, breadth, and depth using the delineation of environmental issues provided by the Sustainable Slopes Program (SSP) Charter. This data was compared to the resorts’ degree of environmentally responsible action as rated by the Ski Area Citizens’ Coalition (SACC). An adaptation of Hudson and Miller's (2005) model was then used to classify the ski resorts as inactive, reactive, exploitive, or proactive in their environmental activities. Recommendations have been made for standardization and transparency in environmental disclosures and an environmental management system to aid ski resorts in moving from ad hoc processes to a systematic and comprehensive framework for improving environmental performance. Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Chris Chard, Dr. Cheryl Mallen, and Dr. Craig Hyatt. Their support and guidance has been truly invaluable. Because of them I am not only proud of the final product but have also found the process to be exciting and rewarding.
