Handy "At a Glance" sidebars instantly outline all the important
particulars of a resort: the typical skiing season, the number of runs, annual
snowfall, lift capacity, vertical drop, prices - daily, weekly, special rates -
numbers and websites to help families locate lodging information and much, much
more.
Lobster's Family Guide to North American Ski Resorts
describes both the skiing and after-skiing experience for families,
all-the-while emphasizing the special amenities, off-hill facilities, services
and activities available to kids and their parents. Veteran ski expert Marty
McLennan asks and answers all the pertinent questions: Is there day-care? Are
ski lessons available for kids? Are any hills designated for children? What
kind of after-ski fun is available for families, tots and teens? Are there
special activities for families? Arts and crafts programs for kiddies? Video
arcades, water slides, pools or other amusements? Lobster's Family Guide to
North American Ski Resorts ensures that families learn the important
details about a resort that only someone having been there will know, such as
where the best meeting places are, or where to go for hot chocolate and
oven-fresh cookies while warming up for skiing.
