Description:

Abstract:

Shapefile contains "most" of the boundaries of ski areas within the State of Colorado (missing Telluride & Powderhorn). The ski area boundary shapefile was compiled by the Regional Office's Geospatial Services office by using the ski area boundary data provided by National Forests in Colorado.

Purpose:

The data is to be used for the general location/extent of the ski areas in Colorado.
