Ken Roberts and Sharon Marsh Roberts We've done a lot of skiing in the Hudson Valley -- cross-country,
backcountry, downhill, and rollerski. We also ski in many other
places in North America and Europe.

We started out by learning downhill
skiing in the Catskills, especially at Hunter Mountain. Soon we
moved out into exploring the backcountry on skis in the Catskills and
Shawangunks.
Nowadays in the Hudson
Valley in the winter we ski mostly cross-country on trails. But we do lots
of backcountry skiing (and some lift-served downhill skiing and
snowboarding) in other regions
of North America and Europe in winter and even more in the spring
season.

In the summer and fall we have fun riding our tandem bicycle on the
roads of the Hudson Valley,
and we've made up a large website called
Bike
Hudson Valley. In recent years Ken had been skating on the
roads and has set up a website
Skate Hudson
Valley.
