Ski & Winter Sports covers a genuinely split-anchor topic: trail difficulty ratings have no governing body and vary resort to resort (traced to a surprising Disney market-research origin), while avalanche risk is tracked through a government-connected 5-level North American Avalanche Danger Scale under the US Forest Service's National Avalanche Center. This pillar covers both honestly, plus the deliberate predawn mitigation work behind patrolled terrain and why 'sidecountry' carries identical risk to true backcountry.
Five pillars are planned for this domain -- Ski & Winter Sports, Diving & Scuba, Hiking & Nature, Wine Tourism, and Golf Travel -- per ActivitiesInterests-Content-Map.md. Ski & Winter Sports is now fully built (4/4 cluster pages), completing every pillar in this domain. This pillar carries a genuinely split anchor -- trail ratings are honestly disclosed as unstandardized, while avalanche safety is anchored to the US Forest Service's National Avalanche Center, a strong government source.
