History of Skiing in Colorado
With origins dating back to 2500 BC, the face of skiing has changed dramatically through the years. Once simply a mode of transportation, skiing has been used in military training and combat, as a form of recreation, and as a competitive sport. From long boards to short "fat" skis, telemark skiing to alpine skiing, ski jumping to slalom racing, skiing is more popular than ever before. And here in the Colorado high country, it lives on, not just as a sport, but as a thriving way of life.
