Decision
7. ONE of four options, and answer this before requirements 4 and 5
Required Often forgotten
A and C need a lift-served ski area. B and D need a map and compass, and each states an adaptive alternative that A and C do not. D needs no ski area at all and is seven-tenths discussion. Requirements 4 and 5 both name this choice, so it has to be made ahead of them.
Notes and warnings
Warning. ANSWER THIS BEFORE REQUIREMENTS 4 AND 5, both of them name it. Beyond that, compare the four by what they cost to reach rather than by difficulty: A and C need a lift-served ski area and a ticket; B needs groomed trails and a 4-mile tour; D needs snow, snowshoes and a map. Only B and D state an adaptive alternative.
