• Poem in Response

  

  Reading a comment made by my close friend, Penny Granger, on yesterday’s Snow-Covered Chairlift post, I was inspired to write this poem in response… Lurking in the woodsBehind every treeAre spirits of oldSeeking to be free Onto a chairliftSo ghostly, unseenThey come here to rideThis skiing machine When once others cameThe mountain did roarNot so…

  Abandoned decades ago when a ski resort closed for its final season, several chairlifts remain suspended on cables in the forest, serving as a vestige to the once popular winter retreat. Prints available here. Thanks – I hope to see you soon!

• Remnants of Ski Resort

  

  You never know… Hiking through the woods the other day, I came upon an old, abandoned ski hill. There were still several towers, many chairlifts – some on the ground, while others remained attached to rusted cables, overhead – and, an unrelenting forest.
