winter sport.

hill, to turn at will, and enjoy nature at its loveliest are thrills for all age groups.
Skiing is also interesting because it provides a variety of experiences. Snow conditions change hourly as the
temperature and weather conditions change during the day. Moreover, every trail is different. Rarely does one pass
over the same spot twice.

very little snowfall, snow can be made if the temperature is below 32 degrees.

farms, small business owners lost their businesses, and many big business owners had trouble selling their products
