  • 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.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Kelly Shannon Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau [email protected] PoconoMountains.com / @PoconoTourismPR 570.730.6444 Poconos Gear Up for the 2017-2018 Ski and Snowboard Season Exciting events, improved snow making, better trails, and featured specials POCONO MOUNTAINS, PA., November 21, 2017 – The first sightings of snow for the 2017-2018 winter season have been spotted over the past few weeks across multiple locations in the Pocono Mountains. Ski areas rejoiced, responding to Mother Nature by making even more snow, creating prime conditions for skiing, snowboard, and snow tubing. For the most up-to-date information on opening dates and snow conditions, visit the Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau’s Snow Conditions page. The Pennsylvania Ski Area Association has reported what’s new for the 2017-2018 ski season. Big Boulder Ski Area was the first to open this season in the Poconos and is currently open on weekends, depending on weather. Its sister mountain, Jack Frost Ski Resort, has snow fans blowing as the temperatures dip into the 30s. New for this year for both mountains (known together as JFBB), is a Peak Discovery Program, where skiers and riders can “Learn, Practice, & Explore” when they want, where they want, at any “Peak Resort” in the Northeast. The program is a 3-day lesson with equipment rentals and lift tickets for just $99. Another bonus for the 2017-2018 winter season: JFBB snow conditions are guaranteed! If riders are not completely satisfied with the trail conditions, they can simply return their ticket to Guest Services within one hour of purchase and they will receive a “Snow Check,” good for the same lift ticket type valid that season.
