In the House this week is Corey Thiesseand Korey Dropkin who are joining us after acouple of weeks back gaining a mixed doubles spotfor the USA in the 2026 Winter Games in Cortina. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nuestro invitado de hoy es Fernando Gutiérrez, un misionero y peregrino español de 42 años, cuya historia lo ha llevado por lugares como India, Kenia, Mozambique y España, entre muchos otros países. Conversamos con él desde Italia, a mitad de camino de una peregrinación de miles de kilómetros a pie hacia Belén, el lugar donde nació Jesús. Lo impulsa una pregunta "Qué quieres Jesús de mí", mientras va esclareciendo la respuesta de entregarlo todo.De pequeño mamó la fe en su hogar, pero la dejó dentro de un cajón durante sus años de juventud. Fernando es periodista y su conversión vino unida a esta profesión años más tarde, cuando su trabajo lo llevó al norte de África y a conocer más de cerca a migrantes y gente muy pobre. También a través de su paso por Gaza, donde fue a cubrir la guerra como corresponsal y fue descubriendo a Jesús entre los que más sufren. La providencia lo llevó a hacer un voluntariado con las hermanas Misioneras de la Caridad en Calcuta, India. Lo que comenzó como un viaje de dos semanas, resultó en un tiempo de discernimiento y su posterior entrada en la rama masculina de la orden: los Padres Misioneros de la Caridad, para entregar su vida a Dios en el servicio a los más pobres de entre los pobres. Allí fue a África y fue discerniendo que su camino pasaba por llevar a los niños del aborto a la Virgen María, dejó la orden y comenzó Mary's Children Mission, un hogar para ayudar a mujeres vulnerables y salvar a sus niños de ser abortados. Después de varios años de misión sintió deseos de ir a la fuente de todo: ir a visitar a El Niño a Belén, donde Jesús se hizo niño para venir a salvarnos. En eso lo encontramos hoy, en un parate en el camino.   “No tengo plata ni oro, pero te doy lo que tengo”: un espacio donde encontrarnos con el que verdaderamente nos llena, para que nos tome de la mano, nos levante y nos ponga en camino nuevamente.

Per salvarsi dal rosso della pista da bob, il Comune di Cortina farà da B&B. È scritto nero su bianco nel piano economico redatto da KPMG e citato da Il Fatto Quotidiano il 4 maggio: 638mila euro di perdite ogni anno, 12,7 milioni in vent'anni. L'impianto “iconico” voluto da Zaia sarà pronto dopo l'inizio dei Giochi e resterà sulle spalle dei cittadini molto più a lungo. Per coprire il disastro, il Comune pensa di affittare appartamenti pubblici ai turisti: fino a 400 euro a notte. Gli stessi alloggi che da anni si promettono ai residenti. Si chiama valorizzazione immobiliare. Ma è una svendita. Nel 2023 la società Simico parlava di pareggio al quinto anno. Oggi la parola più usata è “deficit”. La voce principale? L'energia: 455mila euro solo per mantenere il ghiaccio. Più del doppio di quanto si incassa da tutte le attività agonistiche e turistiche messe insieme. La pista si userà per due mesi l'anno, se va bene. Il resto del tempo resterà lì, ferma, come una ferita aperta. Uno di quei monumenti all'insipienza che in Italia si costruiscono per sentirsi grandi. Salvo poi trovarsi piccoli davanti al conto. Il sindaco aveva detto di non dormire per l'ansia dei debiti. Ora sappiamo perché. Ma non sarà solo lui a pagare. A pagare saranno i cortinesi, con il patrimonio pubblico trasformato in rendita privata. Saranno le famiglie a cui si era promessa una casa. Saranno i contribuenti che finanziano un tubo inutile. Loro negheranno, negheranno ancora, negheranno come hanno fatto fin qui.

Story Transcript:It: Giorgio camminava attraverso la piazza del mercato di Cortina d'Ampezzo.En: Giorgio walked through the market square of Cortina d'Ampezzo.It: Il sole di primavera brillava nel cielo azzurro, e il profumo delle montagne era fresco e invitante.En: The spring sun shone in the blue sky, and the scent of the mountains was fresh and inviting.It: I venditori esponevano i loro prodotti: frutta, formaggi e, per la gioia di Giorgio, attrezzature da trekking.En: The vendors displayed their products: fruit, cheeses, and, to Giorgio's delight, trekking equipment.It: Elena e Marco camminavano accanto a lui.En: Elena and Marco walked beside him.It: Elena sorrideva, entusiasta per la nuova avventura.En: Elena smiled, enthusiastic about the new adventure.It: Marco, invece, scrutava con attenzione gli stand, già immaginandosi tra le cime innevate delle Dolomiti.En: Marco, on the other hand, carefully scrutinized the stands, already imagining himself among the snowy peaks of the Dolomites.It: Giorgio, sebbene emozionato, nascondeva una paura segreta: non voleva fallire nell'impressionare i suoi amici esperti di montagna.En: Although excited, Giorgio hid a secret fear: he didn't want to fail to impress his friends who were mountain experts.It: «Vedi qualcosa di interessante?En: "Do you see anything interesting?"It: » chiese Elena, ferma davanti a uno stand di scarponi.En: Elena asked, stopping in front of a boot stand.It: Giorgio si sforzò di apparire sicuro.En: Giorgio tried to appear confident.It: «Cerco qualcosa che sia resistente.En: "I'm looking for something sturdy.It: Non voglio fermarmi a metà strada.En: I don't want to stop halfway."It: »I tre amici si avvicinarono agli scarponi.En: The three friends approached the boots.It: La scelta era poca, dato il fuori stagione.En: The selection was sparse, given the off-season.It: Questo preoccupava Giorgio.En: This worried Giorgio.It: Cercava di capire quale scarponcino fosse migliore, ma ogni opzione sembrava identica.En: He tried to figure out which boots were better, but every option seemed identical.It: «Sai cosa scegliere, Giorgio?En: "Do you know what to choose, Giorgio?"It: » domandò Marco, guardandolo con un sorrisetto.En: asked Marco, looking at him with a smirk.It: Ecco la sua occasione.En: Here was his chance.It: Giorgio si rese conto che non poteva fingere.En: Giorgio realized he couldn't pretend.It: «In realtà, no», ammise finalmente.En: "Actually, no," he finally admitted.It: «Puoi aiutarmi a scegliere, Marco?En: "Can you help me choose, Marco?It: E tu, Elena, che ne pensi?En: And you, Elena, what do you think?"It: »Elena annuì.En: Elena nodded.It: «Certo, dobbiamo assicurarci di avere tutto il necessario.En: "Of course, we must make sure we have everything we need."It: »Proprio in quel momento, Giorgio notò un paio di scarponi che spiccava tra gli altri.En: Just at that moment, Giorgio noticed a pair of boots that stood out from the rest.It: Sembravano fatti apposta per lui.En: They seemed made just for him.It: Si avvicinò di corsa, ma un altro cliente li stava già osservando.En: He rushed over, but another customer was already eyeing them.It: Giorgio esitò un attimo.En: Giorgio hesitated for a moment.It: Gli altri si erano accorti del suo interesse.En: The others had noticed his interest.It: «Vai, chiedili,» lo incoraggiò Elena.En: "Go on, ask about them," encouraged Elena.It: Con passo deciso, Giorgio si avvicinò al rivale.En: With a determined step, Giorgio approached the rival.It: «Mi scusi,» disse con un sorriso, «sarebbe possibile provare questi?En: "Excuse me," he said with a smile, "would it be possible to try these on?"It: »L'altro cliente, vedendo la determinazione nei suoi occhi, si fece da parte.En: The other customer, seeing the determination in his eyes, stepped aside.It: Giorgio indossò gli scarponi.En: Giorgio put on the boots.It: Erano perfetti!En: They were perfect!It: Guardò Elena e Marco.En: He looked at Elena and Marco.It: «Che ne dite, ragazzi?En: "What do you think, guys?"It: »Loro annuirono approvando.En: They nodded in approval.It: «Sono perfetti,» disse Marco.En: "They are perfect," said Marco.It: «Hai trovato ciò che cercavi.En: "You've found what you were looking for."It: »Incoraggiato, Giorgio si unirono agli amici per scegliere gli altri articoli: zaini, bastoncini, e abbigliamento adatto.En: Encouraged, Giorgio joined his friends to choose the other items: backpacks, poles, and suitable clothing.It: Ogni scelta era un lavoro di squadra.En: Every choice was a team effort.It: Non si trattava più di impressionare, ma di collaborare.En: It was no longer about impressing, but about collaborating.It: Alla fine, con gli acquisti in mano e il cuore leggero, si sedettero al bar della piazza.En: In the end, with their purchases in hand and their hearts light, they sat at a café in the square.It: Mentre sorseggiavano un caffè, parlavano della loro prossima avventura e di come il giorno fosse stato speciale.En: As they sipped coffee, they talked about their next adventure and how special the day had been.It: Giorgio capì che la collaborazione e l'amicizia erano più preziose del cercare di dimostrare qualcosa.En: Giorgio understood that collaboration and friendship were more valuable than trying to prove something.It: Sorrise.En: He smiled.It: Aveva trovato non solo l'attrezzatura giusta, ma aveva anche imparato una lezione preziosa.En: He had found not only the right equipment, but he had also learned a valuable lesson.It: Il viaggio sarebbe stato perfetto, perché non ci sarebbe stato bisogno di fare tutto da solo.En: The journey would be perfect because there wouldn't be a need to do everything alone.

SINOPSIS:La llegada del Circo Estatal Ruso -aquí llamado Circo de Moscú- a la Argentina en 1966 fue un suceso sin precedentes. Los artistas soviéticos cruzaron por primera vez la Cortina de Hierro para presentarse en un país latinoamericano, en tiempos de la Guerra Fría. El nivel creativo al que habían llegado en el arte circense era insuperable. Hasta que llegó la Perestroika y en los '90, con el derrumbe del Estado Soviético, ese circo también sucumbió.La película busca recuperarlo y, de algún modo, honrarlo.FICHA TÉCNICAProductores:ALBERTINA CARRICARLOS GARAYCOCHEADIEGO SCHIPANIProducción Ejecutiva: CARLOS GARAYCOCHEADirección: SAULA BENAVENTEEquipo técnico:Fotografía y cámara: PABLO RACIOPPIDirección de sonido: FEDERICO HUBERMontaje: MARCO FURNARIPost Producción de Imagen: MARCO FURNARIPost producción sonido: JUAN MOLTENIMúsica: GABRIEL CHWOJNIKPaíses de producción: Argentina, AlemaniaDistribuidor: CinetrenApoyos: Incaa, MecenazgoREDES SOCIALES DE LA PELÍCULAFB: https://www.facebook.com/unavezuncircoIG: https://www.instagram.com/unavezuncirco/Si quieren invitarme un cafecito: https://cafecito.app/cineconmcfly ☕Seguí todas las novedades del mundo del cine y los últimos estrenos videocomentados en:En Twitter: http://twitter.com/pablomcflyEn Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cineconmcflyEn Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/pablomcfly

La mejor forma de tomar las decisiones que a uno le venga en gana es no explicar claramente por qué se toman. Los criterios son algo que parecen sólo al alcance de los iniciados, de los miembros de la secta arbitral. Si no hay una base sólida y concreta, si todo está al albur de lo que interese interpretar en cada momento, es muy sencillo justificar una decisión y su contraria ante dos situaciones prácticamente idénticas. A eso hay que añadir la desmemoria interesada y la jeta de piedra Gómez que se gastan los mamporreros, digo los expertos arbitrales. Es como jugar a impartir justicia con dados, con dados cargados.

L'ingresso dell'IA di Meta in Europa è stato complicato: l'impiego dei nostri dati per allenare la tecnologia è "legittimo", dice ora Bruxelles, ma vediamo con quali limiti. Leggiamo poi della mossa cinese contro Trump: bloccare l'export dei minerali strategici, per gli USA ma anche per il settore tech europeo (!).

L'INTERVIEW LBAD+ / Le format court de La Bande à D+... avec Thibault Anselmet #SkiAlpinismeLors du 1er épisode de la 4e saison de La Bande à D+, le journaliste de Distances+ Nicolas Fréret, avec Louison Coiffet, Sabine Erhström, Jean-Michel Faure-Vincent et Ugo Ferrari, avaient fait un pas de côté pour parler d'un sport d'hiver que les traileurs apprécient particulièrement lorsqu'ils ont l'opportunité de le pratiquer : le ski alpinisme, qui fera son entrée aux Jeux olympiques de Cortina en Italie en 2026.Nous avions reçu dans l'émission Thibault Anselmet, double vainqueur du classement général de la Coupe du monde de ski alpinisme (2023 et 2024) et vainqueur également l'an dernier du petit globe du sprint, à peu près au milieu de la saison 2025 de la coupe du monde. Saison qui s'achève à Strømsø en Norvège ce dimanche 13 avril.Thibault Anselmet a l'ambition de devenir le premier champion olympique de son sport, même si le sprint, qui ne dure que quelques minutes, n'est pas très représentatif de la discipline, contrairement à l'épreuve phare, l'épreuve individuelle, qui compte environ 1800 m de dénivelé et qui peut durer une heure et demie.Il a été question, entre autres, de l'évolution du ski-alpinisme et du trail.Nous vous proposons une version courte cette longue interview.La Bande à D+ est soutenu par la marque de nutrition sportive Näak, le calendrier de courses et moteur de recherches Miles Republic, par l'application de coaching course à pied et trail RunMotion Coach et Wise Ultra Running, une marque française de vêtements de course techniques conçus pour l'itinérance et les voyages en courant.Hébergé par Ausha.

En este episodio, conversamos con Monseñor Jorge Ignacio García Cuerva, arzobispo de la Arquidiócesis de Buenos Aires. El arzobispo nos cuenta su historia de fe, su vocación al sacerdocio y cómo fue ser llamado a ser obispo. También conversamos acerca de la alegría, que es un tema del que Monseñor Jorge estuvo haciendo especial hincapié durante los últimos dos años, dedicado muchas homilías, reuniones diocesanas, cartas pastorales e incluso un libro al tema.  Monseñor Jorge Ignacio García Cuerva nació en Río Gallegos, Argentina. Se ordenó de sacerdote en San Isidro. Se graduó en la Licenciatura en Teología por la Universidad Católica Argentina (UCA), como abogado por la Universidad Católica de Salta y como licenciado en Derecho Canónico (UCA).  En 2018 fue consagrado como obispo titular de Lacunbaza y obispo auxiliar de Lomas de Zamora. En 2019, fue nombrado obispo de Río Gallegos. En 2023, arzobispo de Buenos Aires y Primado de Argentina (a fines de 2024 el Primado de Argentina pasó al obispo de Santiago del Estero).  “No tengo plata ni oro, pero te doy lo que tengo”: un espacio donde encontrarnos con el que verdaderamente nos llena, para que nos tome de la mano, nos levante y nos ponga en camino nuevamente.

Today we find out about ‘Going East' – a new ski film from Arc'teryx – which sees a team of four skiers make their way to ski in Italy, Austria, then Slovakia, Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey – all by public transport with not a single flight!  In total they took 35 trains, 24 buses, 7 metro, 2 trams and spend over 140 hours travelling. They had to deal with language differences, connections and passport checks in the middle of the night. At one point they lost one member of their team completely! Yet, when you listen to our conversation, you'll find out why they think "the journey was as important as the skiing itself" and why they'd do it again.  Host Iain Martin was joined by Silvia Moser and Joi Hoffman, two of the athletes who made the film.  Intersport Ski Hire Discount Code Use the code ‘SKIPODCAST' at intersportrent.com or simply take this link for your discount to be automatically applied.  SHOW NOTES Win a pair of Watchtower sunnies from Vallon – simply leave us a review on Apple Podcasts or write a comment on Spotify or Instagram (1:15) Vallon's End of Season Ski Sale is on now with 25-35% off (1:30) Silvia is based in Cortina, Italy (2:30) Iain travelled by train back from Selva Val Gardena (3:15) Joi is based in Innsbruck, Austria (4:30) Watch 'Going East' – the new film from Arc'teryx (5:00) The journey involved taking 35 trains, 24 buses, 7 metro, 2 trams and 140 hours of travelling (8:30) The team used Interrail tickets for their train travel (9:15) How did you carry so much camera kit?

Donald Trump ha colpito duro le auto straniere importate negli Stati Uniti imponendo una tassa del 25% "permanente" a partire dal 2 aprile: il giorno della "liberazione dell'America" come l'ha definito il presidente, quando scatteranno anche i dazi reciproci nei confronti di 15 Paesi. Per il tycoon la mossa servirà a stimolare la produzione nazionale, ma rischia di mettere a dura prova le finanze delle case automobilistiche che dipendono dalle catene di forniture globali e tradursi in costi più elevati per i consumatori americani. Così di sicuro pensano i mercati che hanno reagito molto male alla notizia: Wall Street ha chiuso in rosso ancora prima dell'annuncio ufficiale ed è calata ulterioremente dopo, mentre la maggior parte delle azioni delle case automobilistiche hanno lasciato sul terreno circa il 2-3%, da General Motors a Stellantis. La misura del presidente americano potrebbe anche innescare ulteriori scontri commerciali con l'Unione europea, in particolare Paesi come Germania e Italia, ma anche Giappone e la Corea del Sud. Affrontiamo il tema con Mario Cianflone, Il Sole24OreTrump Makes China Attractive Again Mentre aumentano le frizioni tra gli Stati Uniti di Trump e i suoi alleati. C'è un grande attore globale pronto ad approfittarne. Durante il China Development Forum, il premier cinese Li Qiang ha intensificato gli sforzi per provare ad attrarre aziende straniere in Cina, nel tentativo di ravvivare l economia cinese che sta attraversando una fase di deflazione, alti tassi di disoccupazione e crescita economica debole. Qiang ha promesso stabilità e politiche favorevoli alle imprese, sottolineando l impegno di Pechino per la globalizzazione, il multilateralismo e la resistenza al protezionismo. Reuters riporta anche che una rete di aziende gestite da una società tecnologica cinese segreta starebbe cercando di reclutare gli ex dipendenti del governo federale statunitense licenziati nelle ultime settimane. Intanto oggi la Cina rigetta l'offerta del presidente americano Donald Trump di concessioni sul fronte dei dazi in cambio del via libera di Pechino alla vendita di TikTok. E' quanto ha detto il portavoce del ministero degli Esteri Guo Jiakun, secondo cui "i nuovi dazi Usa sulle auto importate violano le regole dell'Organizzazione del commercio (Wto) e minacciano il sistema del commercio basato sulle regole". La posizione di Pechino è "consistente e chiara": le tariffe "non aiuteranno gli Stati Uniti a risolvere i suoi problemi" e "le guerre commerciali non avranno alcun vincitore"; ha aggiunto Guo.Il commento è di Filippo Fasulo, Co-head dell'Osservatorio Geoeconomia dell'IspiOlimpiadi, a Cortina inaugurata la pista da bob delle polemiche Lunedì 24 Marzo è stata inaugurata la nuova pista da bob "Eugenio Monti" di Cortina. La pista da Bob di Cortina viene considerato un "Miracolo olimpico" vista la difficoltà nella realizzazione e lo scetticismo che ha accompagnato il progetto dall'inizio. "La pista da bob è il monumento alla follia". A dirlo è stato il presidente del Veneto, Luca Zaia, durante la cerimonia di inaugurazione della pre-omologazione dello Sliding Centre di Cortina che si è svolta martedì 25 marzo.«Mi dicevano che era una follia», ha aggiunto Zaia, «ed invece abbiamo trasformato una discarica nel Guggenheim del ghiaccio». In questi anni, si era discusso della possibilità di utilizzare impianti in Austria, Svizzera o Germania, che avrebbero eliminato la necessità di costruire una nuova pista. Le parole del CIO a dicembre 2023, quando il primo bando di gara è andato deserto, L ultima stroncatura per le gare olimpiche invernali in Italia arriva direttamente con un comunicato del Comitato Olimpico Internazionale: «in una fase così avanzata devono essere prese in considerazione solo le piste già esistenti e operative». Invece poi il governo è riuscito a convincere una delle più grandi imprese italiane, la Pizzarotti, a raccogliere la sfida e in tredici mesi l'opera ha visto la luce. Un tempo record. Anche per il Comitato olimpico internazionale, che nutriva perplessità sul futuro riutilizzo della struttura, oltre che sulle effettive spese, di fatto lievitate dagli 81,6 milioni di euro del bando di ricostruzione andato deserto alla scadenza del 31 luglio 2023, ai 118,4 milioni euro di investimento complessivo dichiarato da Simico, la società infrastrutture di Milano Cortina 2026. Sul cantiere si sono mosse 135 persone sotto la direzione dell'impresa capofila Pizzarotti che ha stretto accordi con 35 appaltatori ditte principalmente bellunesi e nazionali. Ne parliamo proprio con Paolo Pizzarotti, Presidente Impresa Pizzarotti.

En este episodio, entrevistamos a Luli Arrotea y Pepa Lacasia. Conocemos a Luli y a Pepa desde nuestra juventud, cuando compartíamos con ellas los grupos de jóvenes de nuestra parroquia, la Parroquia Nuestra Señora del Pilar. Hoy, ambas son religiosas pertenecientes a la congregación de las Misioneras de la Caridad, fundada en 1950 por la Madre Teresa de Calcuta. Las Misioneras de la Caridad profesan votos de pobreza, castidad y obediencia, además de un cuarto voto especial: “entregar gratuitamente un servicio de amor a los más pobres entre los pobres. “Como Pepa y Luli nos explican, son contemplativas en el corazón del mundo.   Luli actualmente vive en Buenaventura, una ciudad portuaria sobre el Pacífico, en Colombia, donde conviven el narcotráfico, la guerrilla y una gran pobreza. Allí, las Hermanas de la Caridad tienen un hogar de ancianos y trabajan con los niños. Por su parte, Pepa vive con su comunidad en Chimbote, una pequeña ciudad a ocho horas al norte de Lima, Perú, donde las Hermanas de la Caridad atienden a muchas familias inmigrantes necesitadas.   Luli y Pepa nos comparten cómo sintieron el llamado a la vida consagrada y, en especial, a ser Misioneras de la Caridad. También nos cuentan cómo viven la pobreza, no solo material, sino también espiritual, abandonadas a la Providencia. Conversamos sobre cómo ellas encuentran a Jesús en los pobres y en la Eucaristía, cómo los pobres las llevan a Jesús y Jesús las lleva a los pobres. Luli y Pepa nos invitan a reflexionar sobre cómo Jesús quiere que lo encontremos especialmente en los pobres, que muchas veces están muy cerca de nosotros. “No tengo plata ni oro, pero te doy lo que tengo”: un espacio donde encontrarnos con el que verdaderamente nos llena, para que nos tome de la mano, nos levante y nos ponga en camino nuevamente.

The great Italian scholar Martina Mastandrea, who spoke with us in 2023 to discuss "In Another Country," joins us again to talk about another Hemingway tale: "Out of Season."After Mastandrea treats us to an Italian rendition of the opening to "Out of Season," we explore many aspects of the story, including its biographical inspiration, connections to other Hemingway texts (like "Cat in the Rain" and "Hills Like White Elephants"), the role Cortina plays as a setting, and ways to read the famous ending.  This celebrated story is always in-season, so please join us as Martina Mastandrea guides us through it!

“La pena de muerte, lejos de ser una solución efectiva para los problemas de inseguridad que aquejan a nuestras sociedades, se revela como una trampa moral y una falacia disuasoria”

Sabino Maria Frassà"Il Braille Stellato di Fulvio Morella"Il 2025 è l'anno del Braille Stellato, l'alfabeto ideato da Fulvio Morella per celebrare il bicentenario del sistema di scrittura utilizzato dalle persone cieche e ipovedenti. Il Braille Stellato, ideato da Fulvio Morella nel 2022, è un innovativo alfabeto visivo-tattile che trasforma il linguaggio braille in un codice estetico ispirato alle costellazioni. I punti braille vengono sostituiti da stelle, dando vita a un cielo stellato in cui è possibile leggere e toccare enigmatici messaggi celesti. Da Freud a San Francesco, da Pierangelo Bertoli a Seneca, tutto l'immaginario dell'artista prende forma attraverso costellazioni che si fanno parole. Questo sistema rivoluziona la scrittura braille, unendo percezione tattile ed esperienza visiva, trasformando ogni opera in un intreccio di arte, inclusione e narrazione. Il risultato è una scrittura che non è solo un mezzo di comunicazione, ma anche una forma di espressione poetica e universale.Questo innovativo linguaggio tattile ed estetico, concepito dall'artista valtellinese classe 1971 e promosso per primo da Cramum, ha ottenuto un crescente riconoscimento da parte di istituzioni e collezioni di prestigio internazionale. Le opere di Morella sono entrate a far parte di raccolte di rilievo, tra cui il Museo del Braille di Milano, il Museo del Braille di Parigi, la Zecca Italiana, il Kunsthistorisches Museum di Vienna, la Monnaie de Paris e l'UNESCO di Parigi. Il valore del suo lavoro è stato consacrato con la vittoria del Premio alla Carriera Alfredo d'Andrade 2023 e la selezione per importanti eventi artistici e medaglie ufficiali. "Con il suo alfabeto stellato, Morella invita il pubblico a toccare il cielo con le dita, trasformando l'arte in un'esperienza tanto evocativa quanto sensoriale e inclusiva", spiega Sabino Maria Frassà, direttore creativo di Cramum.Il Braille Stellato rappresenta una nuova frontiera dell'arte multisensoriale, in cui la bellezza diventa accessibile a tutti, abbattendo barriere percettive e culturali. "Le opere di Morella nascono con l'obiettivo di essere universali, superando i limiti della percezione e rendendo l'arte un'esperienza condivisa e senza confini", aggiunge ancora Frassà. Attraverso il suo linguaggio universale, Morella ci ricorda che i limiti sono solo traguardi da superare con ingegno e sensibilità, trasformando ogni opera in un ponte tra emozione e conoscenza.Il braille stellato e le OlimpiadiL'innovazione del Braille Stellato ha portato alla selezione delle opere di Fulvio Morella per la realizzazione di prestigiosi riconoscimenti internazionali. In particolare, la Medaglia "Ailes de Mouette" per le Olimpiadi e Paralimpiadi di Parigi 2024: un omaggio al superamento dei limiti e alla resilienza, presentata presso l'INJA Louis Braille di Parigi. "Il Braille, da 200 anni, è uno strumento straordinario che abbatte le barriere, rendendo le persone cieche e ipovedenti parte pulsante e attiva della società," afferma Stéphane Gaillard, direttore dell'INJA Louis Braille.Dopo questo successo, l'artista è stato selezionato dal Comitato Italiano Paralimpico (CIP) e dall'Unione Stampa Sportiva Italiana (USSI) per elaborare la medaglia della prima edizione del Premio CIP-USSI, un riconoscimento assegnato a giornalisti e comunicatori che hanno saputo raccontare lo sport paralimpico con passione e dedizione. È nata così la medaglia "Raccontami", ispirata al proemio dell'Odissea, che invita alla riflessione sul valore della narrazione. "Ogni eroe, per esistere e trasformarsi in mito e leggenda, ha bisogno di una narrazione: senza di essa, l'impresa resta nell'ombra, silenziosa e incompiuta," sottolinea Sabino Maria Frassà, Direttore Creativo di Cramum. Il Premio CIP-USSI, come spiega il Presidente del CIP Luca Pancalli, celebra e racconta "il valore dello sport come strumento di benessere e inclusione, capace di contribuire alla crescita culturale, sociale e civile del Paese". La medaglia è stata assegnata a numerosi giornalisti e comunicatori di spicco, tra cui Claudio Arrigoni, Novella Calligaris, Mattia Chiusano, Maria Luisa Colledani, Paolo De Laurentiis, Sandro Fioravanti, Giovanni Bruno, Claudio Lenzi, Nadia Lauricella, Dario Marchetti, Mirko Narducci, Mario Nicoliello, Roberto Pacchetti, Felicita Pistilli, Giacomo Prioreschi, Lorenzo Roata, Sonia Arpaia e Mauro Ujetto.Le Mostre Dedicata al Braille StellatoLe mostre sul Braille StellatoIl Braille Stellato, presentato per la prima volta nella mostra Romanitas presso lo spazio Gaggenau della capitale, è oggi protagonista della rassegna I limiti non esistono, nell'ambito dell'Olimpiade Culturale di Milano Cortina 2026. La rassegna, ideata da Sabino Maria Frassà, si sviluppa nei luoghi che saranno il cuore delle Paralimpiadi: Milano, Val di Fiemme e Cortina.Il primo appuntamento, Le stelle che non ti ho detto, si è tenuto nel 2025 presso il Museo d'Arte Contemporanea di Cavalese, aprendo il ciclo con una mostra co-curata dalla neo-direttrice Elsa Barbieri e dallo stesso Frassà. L'esposizione si è arricchita di performance dentro e fuori il Museo, alcune delle quali proseguiranno anche oltre la chiusura ufficiale della mostra, prevista per il 29 giugno 2025. In autunno, l'attenzione si sposta a Milano con la mostra LUDI – L'arte è un abbraccio, ospitata presso Palazzo Regione Lombardia. Al centro di questa esposizione vi è un inedito dialogo tra arte tattile e le sculture gonfiabili di Franco Mazzucchelli, incentrato sulla percezione sensoriale e sull'inclusione. La rassegna si concluderà con l'esposizione Cortina di Stelle al Lagazuoi Expo Dolomiti, il museo più alto delle Dolomiti. Qui, per la prima volta, verranno presentate le sculture luminose del ciclo Braillight, che combinano il Braille Stellato con la luce, creando un'esperienza immersiva a 2.732 metri di altitudine.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

This EP is a great conversation with two good friends of mine and national treasures of Canadian Sport.  Dom Gauthier competed as a Mogul Skier in the late 90s and was an Olympian in Nagano Japan in 1998.  He went on to become the coach of the Japanese National Team and then became the private coach of Jenn Heil and Alexandre Bilodeau where he was integral in their mutual success in Torino and Vancouver.  He became a founding member of the B2Ten foundation, supporting many Canadian Olympians and the success of Canadian Olympic sports for almost 20 years.  Jenn Heil is one of the winningest Mogul Skiers, both male and female, of all time. She has won multiple World Championships and many World Cup gold medal podiums throughout her career. She won Olympic Gold in 2006 at Torino, and Silver at the Vancouver Games. She's gone on to finish a bachelor's degree at McGill University and an MBA at Stanford University and is now building a business focused on women's health care.Together they are a power couple in Canadian sport, they have two growing boys, and they are dedicated to the improvement of sport and health in Canada. More recently Jenn has been named the Chef de Mission for the 2026 Olympic Games in Cortina, Italy.  I was honored to sit down with them both and catch up on life since retiring from competitive sports.

Hey everyone, welcome back to the Beyond the Mountains podcast! Today, I'm joined by an incredible guest—Giulia Monego. Instagram profile : @giuliamonego She's a big mountain athlete with a passion for skiing steep terrain, but that's just the beginning of her story.Giulia grew up in Venice, Italy—a city surrounded by water and canals, far from the mountains—but thanks to her ski-loving parents, she spent winters in Cortina, where she fell in love with speed, competition, and the thrill of the slopes. She started as an alpine ski racer, became a ski instructor, and then pushed herself even further into the world of big mountain free-ride competitions. But for Giulia,   growth has always come from stepping outside the box.Her hunger for new challenges led her to become one of the few fully qualified female mountain guides based in Chamonix France — breaking barriers and deepening her connection to the mountains in the process. And in yet another out-of-the-box move, she's now training as an osteopath, combining her love of movement with a desire to help others stay strong, mobile, and pain-free in the mountains she calls home.This conversation goes deep—we talk about the psychology of pushing limits, decision-making in high-risk environments, the impact of mentors, climate change and even the role of mountains as therapy in an increasingly chaotic world. We also dive into the power of stepping outside our comfort zones—because, as Giulia sees it, true growth happens when we challenge ourselves.So, whether you're a skier, an adventurer, or just someone looking for inspiration, this episode has something for you. As a bonus episode, Giulia agreed to take the Beyond the Mountains questionnaire to reveal her true mountain character. So you can find the bonus episode after this inspiring conversation. This is where we play around and have a bit of fun.Hello friends, I am your host Ashley Pettit welcome to season 4, episode 1 of the Beyond the Mountains podcast.

In this episode of Legends of the Brand, we dive into the world of elite snowsports leadership with Vicky Gosling OBE, Chief Executive of GB Snowsports. Vicky shares her fascinating journey, from growing up in the Wirral to her time in the Royal Air Force, where her experiences included deployments worldwide, and culminated in her role as Group Captain. Her transition from the military to leading transformative projects like the Invictus Games highlights her ability to channel a sense of purpose into creating meaningful change. Vicky's insights into the parallels between military mission command and high-performance sports leadership set the stage for a compelling discussion. As GB Snowsports' leader, Vicky discusses the organization's bold goal of becoming a top-five snowsports nation by 2030. She highlights their impressive results, including podium finishes across all 12 disciplines and three reigning World Champions. Vicky emphasizes the importance of innovation, collaboration with world-class coaches, and empowering athletes to perform in high-risk environments. Her passion for expanding access and raising the profile of British snowsports shines through as she describes the unique challenges and opportunities of leading a sport not traditionally associated with the UK. The conversation delves into the rich history and purpose of the Invictus Games, which Vicky helped to launch alongside Prince Harry. She recounts inspiring personal stories of athletes whose lives were transformed by the power of sport, showcasing its role in recovery and rehabilitation. From the UK to international stages, Invictus has not only created a platform for wounded, injured, and sick servicemen and women but also fostered a legacy of resilience and achievement. Vicky also reflects on GB Snowsports' inclusive ethos and efforts to broaden participation across diverse backgrounds, from grassroots to elite levels. She shares the importance of leveraging local facilities, increasing accessibility, and fostering talent through innovative programs like the Alpine Foundation. Her perspective on the interplay between grassroots participation and high-performance success underscores the organization's holistic approach to growth. In closing, Vicky discusses the upcoming Winter Olympics in Cortina, which GB Snowsports has dubbed their "home Olympics" due to its proximity and familiarity. She shares her hopes for continued success and describes the unifying spirit within her team. Whether you're passionate about sports, leadership, or personal growth, this episode offers inspiration and a behind-the-scenes look at the dynamic world of GB Snowsports.

Mountain and man fused as one, each anchored to and propelled by the other, twin forces mirrored and set aglow, forged in some burbling cauldron and unleashed upon the public as an Experience. This was Killington and this was Mammoth and this was Vail and this was Squaw and this was Taos, each at once a mountain and a manifestation of psyche and soul, as though some god's hand had scooped from Pres and Dave and Pete and Al and Ernie their whimsy and hubris and willfulness and fashioned them into a cackling live thing on this earth. The men were the mountains and the mountains were the men. Everybody knew this and everybody felt this and that's why we named lifts and trails after them.This is what we've lost in the collect-them-all corporate roll-up of our current moment. I'm skeptical of applying an asteroid-ate-the-dinosaurs theory to skiing, but even I'll acknowledge this bit. When the caped founder, who stepped into raw wilderness and said “here I will build an organized snowskiing facility” and proceeded to do so, steps aside or sells to SnowCo or dies, some essence of the mountain evaporates with him. The snow still hammers and the skiers still come and the mountain still lets gravity run things. The trails remain and the fall lines still fall. The mountain is mostly the same. But nobody knows why it is that way, and the ski area becomes a disembodied thing, untethered from a human host. This, I think, is a big part of the appeal of Michigan's Mount Bohemia. Ungroomed, untamed, absent green runs and snowguns, accessible all winter on a $109 season pass, Boho is the impossible storybook of the maniac who willed it into existence against all advice and instinct: Lonie Glieberman, who hacked this thing from the wilderness not in some lost postwar decade, but in 2000. He lives there all winter and everybody knows him and they all know that this place that is the place would not exist had he not insisted that it be so. For the purposes of how skiers consider the joint, Lonie is Mount Bohemia. And someday when he goes away the mountain will make less sense than it does right now.I could write a similar paragraph about Chip Chase at White Grass Touring Center in West Virginia. But there aren't many of those fellas left. Since most of our ski areas are old, most of our founders are gone. They're not coming back, and we're not getting more ski areas. But that doesn't mean the era of the owner-soul keeper is finished. They just need to climb a different set of monkey bars to get there. Rather than trekking into the mountains to stake out and transform a raw wilderness into a piste digestible to the masses, the modern mountain incarnate needs to drive up to the ski area with a dump truck full of hundred dollar bills, pour it out onto the ground, and hope the planted seeds sprout money trees.And this is Mike Taylor. He has resources. He has energy. He has manpower. And he's going to transform this dysfunctional junkpile of a ski area into something modern, something nice, something that will last. And everyone knows it wouldn't be happening without him.What we talked aboutThe Turkey Trot chairlift upgrade; why Taylor re-engineered and renovated a mothballed double chair just to run it for a handful of days last winter before demolishing it this summer; Partek and why skiing needs an independent lift manufacturer; a gesture from Massanutten; how you build a chairlift when your chairlift doesn't come with a bottom terminal; Holiday Mountain's two new ski trails for this winter; the story behind Holiday Mountain's trail names; why a rock quarry is “the greatest neighbors we could ever ask for”; big potential future ski expansion opportunities; massive snowmaking upgrades; snowmaking is hard; how a state highway spurred the development of Holiday Mountain; “I think we've lost a generation of skiers”; vintage Holiday Mountain; the ski area's long, sad decline; pillage by flood; restoring abandoned terrain above the Fun Park; the chairlift you see from Route 17 is not actually a chairlift; considering a future when 17 converts into Interstate 86; what would have happened to Holiday had the other bidders purchased it; “how do we get kids off their phones and out recreating again?”; advice from Plattekill; buying a broken ski area in May and getting it open by Christmas (or trying); what translates well from the business world into running a ski area; how to finance the rebuild and modernization of a failing ski area; “when you talk to a bank and use the word ‘ski area,' they want nothing to do with it”; how to make a ski area make money; why summer business is hard; Holiday's incredible social media presence; “I always thought good grooming was easy, like mowing a lawn”; how to get big things done quickly but well; ski racing returns; “I don't want to do things half-assed and pay for it in the long run”; why season two should be better than season one; “you can't make me happier than to see busloads of kids, improving their skills, and enjoying something they're going to do for the rest of their life”; why New York State has a challenging business environment, and how to get things done anyway; the surprise labor audit that shocked New York skiing last February – “we didn't realize the mistakes we were making”; kids these days; the State of New York owns and subsidizes three ski areas – how does that complicate things?; why the state subsidizing independent ski areas isn't the answer; the problem with bussing kids to ski areas; and why Holiday Mountain doesn't feel ready to join the Indy Pass.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewI met Taylor in a Savannah bar last year, five minutes after he'd bought a ski area and seven months before he needed to turn that ski area into a functional business. Here was the new owner of Holiday Mountain, rolling with the Plattekill gang, more or less openly saying, “I have no idea what the hell I'm doing, but I'm going to do it. I'm going to save Holiday Mountain.”The National Ski Areas Association's annual show, tucked across the river that week, seemed like a good place to start. Here were hundreds of people who could tell Taylor exactly how hard it was to run a ski area, and why. And here was this guy, accomplished in so many businesses, ready to learn. And all I could think, having skied the disaster that was Holiday Mountain in recent years, was thank God this dude is here. Here's my card. Let's talk.I connected with Taylor the next month and wrote a story about his grand plans for Holiday. Then I stepped back and let that first winter happen. It was, by Taylor's own account, humbling. But it did not seem to be humiliating, which is key. Pride is the quickest path to failure in skiing. Instead of kicking things, Taylor seemed to regard the whole endeavor as a grand and amusing puzzle. “Well let's see here, turns out snowmaking is hard, grooming is hard, managing teenagers is hard… isn't that interesting and how can I make this work even though I already had too much else to do at my other 10 jobs?”Life may be attitude above all else. And when I look at ski area operators who have recycled garbage into gold, this is the attribute that seems to steer all others. That's people like Rick Schmitz, who talked two Wisconsin ski areas off the ledge and brought another back from its grave; Justin Hoppe, who just traded his life in to save a lost UP ski area; James Coleman, whose bandolier of saved ski areas could fill an egg carton; and Danielle and Laszlo Vajtay, who for 31 years have modernized their ridiculously steep and remote Catskills ski area one snowgun at a time.There are always plenty of people who will tell you why a thing is impossible. These people are boring. They lack creativity or vision, an ability to see the world as something other than what it is. Taylor is the opposite. All he does is envision how things can be better, and then work to make them that way. That was clear to me immediately. It just took him a minute to prove he could do it. And he did.What I got wrong* Mike said he needed a chairlift with “about 1,000 feet of vertical rise” to replace the severed double chair visible from Route 17. He meant length. According to Lift Blog, the legacy lift rose 232 vertical feet over 1,248 linear feet.* We talk a bit about New York's declining population, but the real-world picture is fuzzier. While the state's population did fall considerably, from 20.1 million to 19.6 million over the past four years, those numbers include a big pandemic-driven population spike in 2020, when the state's population rose 3.3 percent, from 19.5 million to that 20.1 million number (likely from city refugees camping out in New York's vast and bucolic rural reaches). The state's current population of 19,571,216 million is still larger than it was at any point before 2012, and not far off its pre-pandemic peak of 19,657,321.* I noted that Gore's new Hudson high-speed quad cost “about $10 million.” That is probably a fair estimate based upon the initial budget between $8 and $9 million, but an ORDA representative did not immediately respond to a request for the final number.Why you should ski Holiday MountainI've been reconsidering my television pitch for Who Wants to Own a Ski Area? Not because the answer is probably “everybody reading this newsletter except for the ones that already own a ski area, because they are smart enough to know better.” But because I think the follow-up series, Ski Resort Rebuild, would be even more entertaining. It would contain all the elements of successful unscripted television: a novel environment, large and expensive machinery, demolition, shouting, meddlesome authorities, and an endless sequence of puzzles confronting a charismatic leader and his band of chain-smoking hourlies.The rainbow arcing over all of this would of course be reinvention. Take something teetering on apocalyptic set-piece and transform it into an ordered enterprise that makes the kids go “wheeeeee!” Raw optimism and self-aware naivete would slide into exasperation and despair, the launchpad for stubborn triumphalism tempered by humility. Cut to teaser for season two.Though I envision a six- or eight-episode season, the template here is the concise and satisfying Hoarders, which condenses a days-long home dejunking into a half-hour of television. One minute, Uncle Frank's four-story house is filled with his pizza box collection and every edition of the Tampa Bay Bugle dating back to 1904. But as 15 dumpster trucks from TakeMyCrap.com drive off in convoy, the home that could only be navigated with sonar and wayfinding canines has been transformed into a Flintstones set piece, a couch and a wooly mammoth rug accenting otherwise empty rooms. I can watch these chaos-into-order transformations all day long.Roll into Holiday Mountain this winter, and you'll essentially be stepping into episode four of this eight-part series. The ski area's most atrocious failures have been bulldozed, blown-up, regraded, covered in snow. The two-seater chairlift that Columbus shipped in pieces on the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria has finally been scrapped and replaced with a machine that does not predate modern democracy. The snowguns are no longer powered by hand-cranks. A ski area that, just 18 months ago, was shrinking like an island in rising water is actually debuting two brand-new trails this winter.But the job's not finished. On your left as you drive in is a wide abandoned ridge where four ski lifts once spun. On the open hills, new snowguns glimmer and new-used chairlifts and cats hum, but by Taylor's own admission, his teams are still figuring out how to use all these fancy gadgets. Change is the tide climbing up the beach, but we haven't fully smoothed out the tracked sand yet, and it will take a few more hours to get there.It's fun to be part of something like this, even as an observer. I'll tell you to visit Holiday Mountain this winter for the same reason I'll tell you to go ride Chair 2 at Alpental or the triple at Bluewood or the Primo and Segundo Riblet doubles at Sunlight. By next autumn, each of these lifts, which have dressed their mountains for decades, will make way for modern machines. This is good, and healthy, and necessary for skiing's long-term viability. But experiencing the same place in different forms offers useful lessons in imagination, evolution, and the utility of persistence and willpower. It's already hard to picture that Holiday Mountain that teetered on the edge of collapse just two years ago. In two more years, it could be impossible, so thorough is the current renovation. So go. Bonus: they have skiing.Podcast NotesOn indies sticking togetherDespite the facile headlines, conglomerates are not taking over American skiing. As of my last count, about 73 percent of U.S. ski areas are still independently operated. And while these approximately three-quarters of active ski areas likely account for less than half of all skier visits, consumers do still have plenty of choice if they don't want to go Epkonic.New York, in particular, is a redoubt of family-owned and -operated mountains. Other than Vail-owned Hunter and state-owned Belleayre, Gore, and Whiteface, every single one of the state's 51 ski areas is under independent management. Taylor calls out several of these New York owners in our conversation, including many past podcast guests. These are all tremendous conversations, all streaked with the same sincere determination and grit that's obvious in Taylor's pod.Massachusetts is also a land of independent ski areas, including the Swiss watch known as Wachusett:On PartekPartek is one of the delightful secrets of U.S. skiing. The company, founded in 1993 by Hagen Schulz, son of the defunct Borvig lifts President Gary Schulz, installs one or two or zero new chairlifts in a typical year. Last year, it was a fixed-grip quad at Trollhaugen, Wisconsin and a triple at Mt. Southington, Connecticut. The year before, it was the new Sandy quad at Saddleback. Everyone raves about the quality of the lifts and the experience of working with Partek's team. Saddleback GM Jim Quimby laid this out for us in detail when he joined me on the podcast last year:Trollhaugen owner and GM Jim Rochford, Jr. was similarly effusive:I'm underscoring this point because if you visit Partek's website, you'll be like “I hope they have this thing ready for Y2K.” But this is your stop if you need a new SKF 6206-2RS1, which is only $17!On the old Catskills resort hotels with ski areasNew York is home to more ski areas (51) than any state in America, but there are still far more lost ski areas here than active ones. The New York Lost Ski Areas Project estimates that the ghosts of up to 350 onetime ski hills haunt the state. This is not so tragic as it sounds, as the vast majority of these operations consisted of a goat pulling a toboggan up 50 vertical feet beside Fiesty Pete's dairy barn. These operated for the lifespan of a housefly and no one missed them when they disappeared. On the opposite end were a handful of well-developed, multi-lift ski areas that have died in modernity: Scotch Valley (1988), Shu Maker (1999), Cortina (mid-90s), and Big Tupper (2012). But in the middle sat dozens of now-defunct surface-tow bumps, some with snowmaking, some attached to the famous and famously extinct Borsch Belt Catskills resorts.It is this last group that Taylor and I discuss in the podcast. He estimates that “probably a dozen” ski areas once operated in Sullivan County. Some of these were standalone operations like Holiday, but many were stapled to large resort hotels like The Nevele and Grossingers. I couldn't find a list of the extinct Catskills resorts that once offered skiing, and none appeared to have bothered drawing a trailmap.While these add-on ski areas are a footnote in the overall story of U.S. skiing, an activity-laying-around-to-do-at-a-resort can have a powerful multiplier effect. Here are some things that I only do if I happen across a readymade setup: shoot pool, ice skate, jet ski, play basketball, fish, play minigolf, toss cornhole bags. I enjoy all of these things, but I won't plan ahead to do them on purpose. I imagine skiing acted in this fashion for much of the Bortsch Belt crowd, like “oh let's go try that snowskiing thing between breakfast and our 11:00 baccarat game.” And with some of these folks, skiing probably became something they did on purpose.The closest thing modernity delivers to this is indoor skiing, which, attached to a mall – as Big Snow is in New Jersey – presents itself as Something To Do. Which is why I believe we need a lot more such centers, and soon.On shrinking Holiday MountainSome ski areas die all at once. Holiday Mountain curdled over decades, to the husk Taylor purchased last year. Check the place out in 2000, with lifts zinging all over the place across multiple faces:A 2003 flood smashed the terrain near the entrance, and by 2007, Holiday ran just two lifts:At some indeterminant point, the ski area also abandoned the Turkey Trot double. This 2023 trailmap shows the area dedicated to snowtubing, though to my knowledge no such activity was ever conducted there at scale.On the lift you see from Route 17Anyone cruising NY State 17 can see this chairlift rising off the northwest corner of the ski area:This is essentially a billboard, as Taylor left the terminal in place after demolishing the lower part of the long-inactive lift.Taylor intends to run a lift back up this hill and re-open all the old terrain. But first he has to restore the slopes, which eroded significantly in their last life as a Motocross course. There is no timeline for this, but Taylor works fast, and I wouldn't be shocked to see the terrain come back online as soon as 2025.On NY 17's transformation into I-86New York 17 is in the midst of a decades-long evolution into Interstate 86, with long stretches of the route that spans southern New York already signed as such. But the interstate designation comes with standards that define lane number and width, bridge height, shoulder dimensions, and maximum grade, among many other particulars, including the placement and length of exit and entrance ramps. Exit 108, which provides direct eastbound access to and egress from Holiday Mountain, is fated to close whenever the highway gods close the gap that currently splits I-86 into segments.On Norway MountainHoliday is the second ski area comeback story featured on the pod in recent months, following the tale of dormant-since-2017 Norway Mountain, Michigan:On Holiday's high-energy social media accountsTaylor has breathlessly documented Holiday's comeback on the ski area's Instagram and Facebook accounts. They're incredible. Follow recommended. On Tuxedo RidgeThis place frustrates me. Once a proud beginners-oriented ski center with four chairlifts and a 450-foot vertical drop, the bump dropped dead around 2014 without warning or explanation, despite a prime location less than an hour from New York City.I hiked the place in 2020, and wrote about it:On Ski Areas of New YorkSki Areas of New York, or SANY, is one of America's most effective state ski area organizations. I've hosted the organization's president, Scott Brandi, on the podcast a couple of times:Compulsory mention of ORDAThe Olympic Regional Development Authority, which manages New York State-owned Belleayre, Gore, and Whiteface mountains, lost $47.3 million in its last fiscal year. One ORDA board member, in response to the report, said that it's “amazing how well we are doing,” according to the Adirondack Explorer. Which makes a lot of the state's independent ski area operators say things like, “Huh?” That's probably a fair response, since $47.3 million would likely be sufficient for the state to simply purchase every ski area in New York other than Hunter, Windham, Holiday Valley, and Bristol.On high-speed ropetowsI'll keep writing about these forever because they are truly amazing and there should be 10 of them at every ski area in America:Welch Village, Minnesota.
