Author David Goodman literally wrote the book on backcountry skiing in this area 30 years ago, and fortuitously found himself updating it just in time for a winter season that will likely see record numbers of skiers eschewing resorts and heading for the woods.
Goodman was the latest speaker presented by Stoweâs Vermont Ski and Snowboard Museum in its Red Bench series, which has presented sans bench via streaming services since the pandemic started. Earlier events in the series have featured panels of guests, but on Dec. 3, Goodman was the sole speaker.
