Backcountry skiing in remote areasstride
My name is Jadwiga Berbeka. I am an Associate Professor in Department of Tourism, Cracow University of Economics, Poland. Being a backcountry/touring skier myself I came up with the idea of writing a paper entitled: The value of remote destinations for backcountry skiers for the Tourism Conference.
I would really appreciate if you spend 10 minutes on filling in the questionnaire given below. The information gathered in the questionnaire will be treated confidentially and will be used for scientific research purposes only. The responses provided will not be linked to individual names or addresses and they will be presented in an aggregate form.
Thank you
