About this title

Review:

"Bates uses a friendly yet authoritative tone as she weaves personal experience with practical advice. She covers the normal guidebook topics-- hotels, restaurants, and activities-- but also includes advice on where to find a babysitter, how to get the most out of ski and snowboard schools, and how to prevent altitude sickness."
