The mountain dreamers whose memories fill this book are the extraordinary men and women who share with us their deep love for the Sierra Nevada.  They built the ski areas in the snowy range and taught legions of skiers.  Most of these pioneers started with a rope tow of two, little money and big dreams, which they realized with years of hard work and a continued faith in the lure of the mountains they loved so dearly.  Anybody who has strapped on skis for a ride down one of the ski resorts featured, will surely want this volume for their bookshelf.
