With hiking season just around the corner...

A really good thing for avid skiers and snowboarders to do is to check out some of the region's lost and closed ski areas. While many are on private land, there are quite a few with public access and the amount of alpine history is fabulous. I've been a fan of NELSAP for several years and have even found a couple lost ski areas myself. You'll alos find some really good links to other "lost" sites, forums, and lots of infomration on ropeways of all sorts.
