Stations de sports d’hiver, stations de montagne Unités urbaines organisées autour d’hébergements et d’équipements offrant un ensemble de prestations généralement diversifiées, les stations de montagne sont d’abord des villages ou des villes d’altitude, des sites urbanisés en milieu naturel. Mais ce sont également des pôles économiques créés depuis un à deux siècles qui ont subi des évolutions contrastées. La seconde moitié du XXe siècle y a produit une explosion immobilière sans précédent, même si sur le long terme, un rythme de maturité s’impose largement depuis les années 2000 en Europe et en Amérique du Nord, alors que l’Asie connaît encore un essor du phénomène de création. La « station touristique » de montagne, d’un point de vue étymologique, est un dérivé de l’usage du latin classique statio « position permanente » devenu « lieu de séjour » (vers 1170).

  • From: Lee Greenwald To
    From: Lee Greenwald To: FS-objections-pnw-mthood Subject: Twilight Parking lot Date: Monday, March 03, 2014 11:44:20 PM Attachments: 2013 International Report on Snow Mountain Tourism.pdf Cross-country skiing experiencing a Nordic renaissance Olympian.pdf Twilight Parking Lot OBJECTION 3-1-14 EAE v2.doc Dear objections official, I previously raised several objections concerning Mt Hood Meadows application to build the Twilight Parking lot. Though some, not all, of these objections were ostensibly addressed in their responses, they were not addressed fully nor adequately. I raised concerns regarding Meadows assumptions on growth in demand for Alpine skiing. The last ten years MHM stated continued growth trends, but actually the most recent previous two years that has not been the trend. The true growth is in Nordic skiing. The majority of the Nordic community is against the creation of the Twilight lot without a comprehensive analysis of potential future use of this terrain, and nearby Nordic trails and connecting trails. This type of analysis has not been done, and would be precluded by proceeding with the construction of the Twilight lot before all future use options have been considered. Second, I asked that MHM be required by the FS to place the funds, $500,000, for a Nordic center in a designated account for a future Nordic center building, and a restrictive timeline for construction. If the parking lot is to be built, the Nordic community should have some prior input on the Nordic facility to be built prior to the lots final approval. The response that was posted simply stated that "a" facility would be built within three years.
