520    An electrifying adventure into the rich history of skiing 
       and the modern heart of ski-bum culture, from one of 
       America's most preeminent ski journalists. The story of 
       skiing is, in many ways, the story of America itself. 
       Blossoming from the Tenth Mountain Division in World War 
       II, the sport took hold across the country, driven by 
       adventurers seeking the rush of freedom that only cold 
       mountain air could provide. As skiing gained in popularity,
       mom-and-pop backcountry hills gave way to groomed trails 
       and eventually the megaresorts of today. Along the way, 
       the pioneers and diehards--the ski bums--remained the 
       beating heart of the scene. Veteran ski journalist and 
       former ski bum Heather Hansman takes readers on an 
       exhilarating journey into the hidden history of American 
       skiing, offering a glimpse into an underexplored 
       subculture from the perspective of a true insider. Hopping
       from Vermont to Colorado, Montana to West Virginia, 
       Hansman profiles the people who have built their lives 
       around a cold-weather obsession. Along the way she reckons
       with skiing's problematic elements and investigates how 
       the sport is evolving in the face of the existential 
       threat of climate change.
