      “This combination of practical guidebook and skiing history will enrich any backcountry skier’s experience. I love the concept of Powder Ghost Towns, and can’t wait for winter to check out the lost ski areas—with Peter’s fascinating and useful book hired as my guide.”

      —Louis Dawson, WildSnow.com

      “Powder Ghost Towns offers a tremendous review of Colorado’s rich ski history. Peter’s blending of story-telling and extremely thorough route information will land Powder Ghost Towns at the front of my guidebook shelf. Powder Ghost Towns is a must-read for anyone searching for new places to play in Colorado’s winter backcountry.”

      —Brian Holcombe, Executive Director,

      Backcountry Snowsports Alliance

      “Powder Ghost Towns is right-on for any skier looking for a guided introduction to the backcountry. It’s all here: route choices and maps. Even more experienced Colorado backcountry skiers will be fascinated by learning what was here in the beginning—and how many “new” areas of the state are waiting to be skied! The majority of the routes described here are safe and accessible for most of the winter and spring—I’d feel good about new backcountry skiers heading out with this book.”

      —Pete Swenson, founder,

      Colorado Ski Mountaineering Cup
