response: What about about cross-country skiing? That's where people move across all the snow-covered terrain rather than just using ski lifts.
history: Have you ever been skiing? No but it is used as a way for people to move about, for competition and as a recreational activity. I personally dislike it but I'm curious about it, how long has it been around? You may be interested to know then that its been around for around 5000 years. Wow. That's crazy. I didn't know that! The word ski comes from Old Norse which means a split piece of firewood or wood Interesting. I'd rather bobsled.
knowledge: Cross-country skiing is a form of skiing where skiers rely on their own locomotion to move across snow-covered terrain, rather than using ski lifts or other forms of assistance.
