Column: What to do when the skiing mountain is closed

MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • March 29, 2020

Every alpine resort in Maine has reported an indefinite closure. While most of the larger resorts disclaimed that the closure was “until further notice,” in all likelihood nothing will reopen this season. What does a skier do in a time of coronavirus? As I’ve been sticking to self-imposed social distancing at home, I’ve found myself gravitating toward ski movies and ski writing. If you do choose to venture outside for fresh air and exercise during this outbreak, the National Recreation and Park Association has provided recommendations for doing so safely. ~ Josh Christie
