Differences between Cross-country and Downhill Skiers

There are three ski areas over the mountain from us: Canaan Valley State Park, Timberline, and White Grass. The first two are downhill and White Grass is cross-country. The parking lot at Timberline is full of huge SUVs and Hummers and expensive cars made by BMW or Mercedes Benz. The parking lot at White Grass is full of hippie cars like Subaru wagons, Toyota Prius, Jeeps, and old Toyota pick-ups. Just sayin'.
