Reviews
"Pick up a copy of Winter Tales and Trails . . . . You'll not only get a complete guide and review of trails, but you will also learn about the rich, colorful history of skiing in the region. Much of Watters' writing is action: you'll catch your breath through the tales of early trailblazers. But the challenges laid by these tales is clear and you will be compelled to see for yourself the ghost towns and scenic vistas . . . . Be sure to get a copy--you are in for a grand adventure." Lisa A. Jackson, Eclectic Book Reviews
