Abstract:

Three North Carolina ski instructors were selected to attend a week-long skiing event in the Austrian Tyrol. Austrians helped to develop the first American ski resorts and schools, including several in western North Carolina. The point of the event was a reaffirmation of the Austrian roots of American skiing.
