Witness Toni Matt, the only man ever to ski straight down the near-vertical headwall on Mount Washington...visit Sun Valley when it was only a dream...Stowe's first trails...Aspen when it was still a mining town.

5 of 5 Outstanding Documentary on Snow Skiing in the USA February 26, 2018
Reviewer: Richard A Olliver from Fulshear, TX United States  
A very well produced and directed documentary  on the history of snow skiing in the USA.   For skiing enthusiasts of today, ( of which I am one), this informative and entertaining DVD, captures the early days of skiing, and its evolution to current times, reflecting on the social
transitions embracing the sport as a popular activity, as well as the dramatic changes in equipment, clothing and ski mountain facilities and conditions.  Outstanding DVD!
