Skiing
can be enjoyed in many ways. At ski areas you may see people using
alpine, snowboard, telemark, cross country or other specialized
ski equipment, such as that used by disabled or other skiers. Regardless

and be aware that there are elements of risk in skiing that common
sense and personal awareness can help reduce. Observe the code and
