Episode 137 - Our guests come from all over the US for Our 2019-20 Skiing Episode. This week we discover the US' first indoor year round ski hill near New York City, that hopes to introduce a quarter million new skiers to the sport annually.
We explore an iconic ski area that appears to take us back in time, virtually unchanged for decades and is owned by a cooperative of skiers.
We discover a state that often is overlooked when planning a ski vacation even thought it offers champagne powder, a world renown ski resort with its own airline plus a ski area that requires passing thru a nuclear laboratory's security checkpoint.
And we update you on the growing opportunities for the IKON pass holders and remember the life of winter sport pioneer Jake Burton Carpenter, all this week on the Travel With Hawkeye podcast.
Hugh Reynolds of Big Snow, Ry Young of Mad River Glen Ski Area, Kristin Rust Alterra Mountain Company and George Brooks of Ski New Mexico are our guests this week on our biggest Skiing Episode ever.
