Scary slopes
The Thredbo Winter Guide 2009 classifies the suitability of its ski trails from ‘first timers’ up to ‘most difficult’. It also provides a useful table for us to check out the ‘scariness’ of the gradient of each ski-lift. Open the guide here (PDF 1MB) and locate the table of lift information on page 2.
Use Microsoft Publisher or another document creation tool to produce a one-page information flyer for beginning skier groups attending the ski fields to convince them that ski-lifts are NOT so scary. Insert your spreadsheet as an object and include other relevant images, text and mathematical explanations to persuade the audience.
