Cross-country skiing, Thursdays, at Waterville Vaalley are a retroactive, half-price. You pay $18 on the first Thursday, and then it is free on your next returning Thursday. Now, why did they chose that as opposed to a two skiers/$18 Thursday?

The 100km cross country trail system at Waterville Valley is almost always empty. It's basically a ghost area. Except for the diesel powered Piston Bully trail groomer, which does a terrific job, the trails are very empty. Before the skating style of skiing was developed, and all cross-country was tyrolean style, it got many more participants. Where have all the cross-country skiers gone?
