Abstract

As it entered its third century, the ski industry faced numerous challenges and opportunities. Worldwide the industry confronted the significant warming trend that was affecting many countries, as well as their aging populations. In other places economic development either provided a robust industry or presented opportunities for domestic corporations as well as governments to develop their facilities and country industry. Each continent, country, region, and individual ski resort competed for its share of the skier’s pocket.
