Johnsen Company of Portland. Despite these early glimmers of skiing awareness, when the sport began its ascendancy to popularity in the 1930s, the state’s likeliest venues were more distant, and public land ownership less widespread, than was the case in the neighboring states of New Hampshire and Vermont, and ski area development in those states was consequently greater.

Received: 17 August 2020; Accepted: 15 December 2020; Published: 18 December 2020 Abstract: Climate change affects snowpack properties indirectly through the greater need for artificial snow production for ski centers. The seasonal snowpacks at five ski centers in Central Slovakia were examined over the course of three winter seasons to identify and compare the seasonal development and inter-seasonal and spatial variability of depth average snow density of ski piste snow and uncompacted natural snow. The spatial variability in the ski piste snow density was analyzed in relation to the snow depth and snow lances at the Košútka ski center using GIS. A special snow tube for high-density snowpack sampling was developed (named the MM snow tube) and tested against the commonly used VS-43 snow tube. Measurements showed that the MM snow tube was constructed appropriately and had comparable precision. Significant differences in mean snow density were identified for the studied snow types.

  • Environmental Effects Associated with Snow Grooming and Skiing at Treble Cone Ski Field

    Environmental Effects Associated with Snow Grooming and Skiing at Treble Cone Ski Field

    Environmental effects associated with snow grooming and skiing at Treble Cone Ski Field Part 1. Vegetation and soil disturbance Kate Wardle and Barry Fahey ABSTRACT The expansion of ski facilities on public conservation land administered by Department of Conservation (DOC) is placing increased pressure on fragile sub- alpine and alpine ecosystems. Snow grooming in particular has the potential to disturb both soils and vegetation. Field visits to three west Otago ski fields located on land managed by DOC showed that cushionfields are the most vulnerable to damage from snow grooming. To determine the nature and extent of damage to cushionfields 10 permanent 30 m transects were established across cushionfields in 1997 in areas that were groomed and skied, areas that were skied, and in undisturbed (control) areas at Treble Cone Ski Field. Data were collected at 0.3 m intervals to estimate percentage ground cover for six classes: live vascular plants, moss, lichen, dead vegetation and litter, bare ground, and rock and gravel. The frequency of each plant species was also recorded. Measurements of depth of A- horizon, soil bulk density, and penetration resistance were made at 3 m intervals along each transect. There was a statistically significant difference in the cover of live vegetation among the three treatments. Cushionfields that were groomed had a lower cover of live vascular vegetation than the other treatments. Those cushionfields that had been groomed for only a year had the lowest cover of live vegetation. There were no significant differences in species richness and composition between the two treatments and the control, nor were there any statistical differences in soil bulk densities and penetration resistance.

    Impact of Artificial Snow and Ski-Slope Grooming on Snowpack Properties and Soil Thermal Regime in a Sub-Alpine Ski Area

Earlier studies have indicated that the soil on groomed ski slopes may be subjected to more pronounced cooling than the soil below a natural snowpack. We ana- lyzed the thermal impacts of ski-slope preparation in a sub-alpine ski resort in central Switzerland (1100 m a.s.l.) where artificial snow was produced. Physical snow properties and soil temperature measurements were carried out on the ski slope and off-piste during winter 1999/2000. The numerical soil^vegetation^atmosphere transfer model COUP was run for both locations, with a new option to simulate the snowpack development on a groomed ski slope. Snow density, snow hardness and thermal conductivity were signifi- cantly higher on the ski slope than in the natural snowpack. However, these differences did not affect the cooling of the soil, since no difference was observed between the ski slope and the natural snow cover.
  • Optimal Preparation of Alpine Ski Runs

    Optimal Preparation of Alpine Ski Runs

    OPTIMAL PREPARATION OF ALPINE SKI RUNS Mathieu Fauve*, Hansueli Rhyner, Martin Schneebeli, Walter Ammann WSL Swiss Federal Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research SLF, CH-7260 Davos, Switzerland ABSTRACT: The demands on the quality of ski runs have grown with the development of sports equipment. A skiing run must nowadays provide perfect grip, have a certain strength and be durable in order to satisfy the users. The preparation of ski runs involves many snow transformations such as recrystallization, vapor transport, and sintering. These processes strongly depend on the weather conditions that can obviously not be influenced. Therefore, understanding the influences of the various processes involved in grooming is crucial to choose the optimal time and procedure to prepare the runs. Our aim is to optimize the preparation of skiing runs from a technical, economical and ecological point of view. We developed a framework in which the physical and mechanical processes of snow, the weather forecast and type of grooming was taken into account. The influence of snow properties on grooming practice for both, natural and machine-made snow was considered. We propose the best suited grooming method and preparation time for both dry and wet snow in order to obtain high quality and durable runs. Regarding its structural and mechanical properties, machine-made snow constitutes a good snowpack and requires less processing than natural snow for its hardening. By following the proposed scheme the best conditions possible for all skier and riders can be created. Keywords: ski run, snow grooming, weather, snow properties, snow sintering, machine-made snow 1.
