 present!\n\nHe shares a definitive and visually rich history of the past c
 entury of Northwest ski culture\, from stirring and colorful stories of wi

  development of skiing in Washington from the late 1800s to the present\, 
 covering the beginning of ski resorts and competitions\, the importance of
  wild places in the Cascades and Olympic mountains (with a side trip to Or
