La Stampa - News, inchieste e approfondimenti La Stampa: Fine Stagione. Il futuro della montagna senza neve Per decenni lo sci ha rappresentato molto più di uno sport: è stato il motore economico e culturale di molte comunità alpine. Intere vallate hanno costruito la propria identità e il proprio sviluppo attorno agli impianti di risalita e alla promessa di una stagione invernale che ogni anno riportava turisti, lavoro e vita in montagna. Oggi, però, questo equilibrio risulta estremamente fragile. A causa del cambiamento climatico, gli inverni sono più brevi e imprevedibili, la neve naturale diventa spesso un ricordo e molte stazioni sciistiche - soprattutto a quote medio-basse - faticano a restare aperte. Tra costi crescenti, innevamento artificiale e nuove incertezze climatiche, il modello su cui si è basato per decenni il turismo invernale sta entrando in una fase di profonda trasformazione, e a poco può servire la patinata immagine che hanno restituito le Olimpiadi invernali di Milano Cortina. Attraverso le voci di climatologi, esperti di montagna, amministratori locali, maestri di sci e operatori turistici, il documentario "Fine stagione" racconta cosa significa vivere e lavorare in un territorio che cambia più velocemente di quanto si possa immaginare. Tra resistenza, adattamento e nuove possibilità, il reportage racconta il diverso approccio di alcune località alpine tutte alle prese con la medesima domanda: come reinventare la montagna quando la neve non è più una certezza? Late Season. The future of the mountains without snow. For decades, skiing has represented much more than a sport: it has been the economic and cultural engine of many alpine communities. Entire valleys have built their own identity and development around lifts and the promise of a winter season that each year brought tourists, work, and life to the mountains. However, today, this balance is extremely fragile. Due to climate change, winters are shorter and more unpredictable, natural snow often becomes a memory, and many ski resorts – especially at lower elevations – struggle to remain open. With rising costs, artificial snowmaking, and new climatic uncertainties, the model that for decades underpinned winter tourism is entering a phase of profound transformation, and the glossy image offered by the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics is of little use. Through the voices of climatologists, mountain experts, local administrators, ski instructors, and tourist operators, the documentary "End of Season" tells what it means to live and work in a territory that is changing faster than one can imagine. Between resistance, adaptation, and new possibilities, the reportage tells the different approach of some alpine resorts all grappling with the same question: how to reinvent the mountains when snow is no longer a certainty? #Milan #WinterOlympics https://www.lastampa.it/torino/2026/03/11/video/fine_stagione_il_futuro_della_montagna_senza_neve-15539845/

The 2026 Winter Paralympic Games opened today in Milan. A Russian team is present for the first time since 2022 and was greeted by boos as they entered the arena. Teams from seven nations including Ukraine boycotted the ceremony in protest against Russia's participation.

#HilaryKnight, #USA #WomensHockey: "Now I have to sit in front of you and explain someone else's behavior. It's not my responsibility" I could explain to you the drama, but I won't Because that defeats her point Why, at the pinnacle of her team's success at the #Olympics #WinterOlympics #WinterOlympics2026, is the focus on anything other than her team? Why steal their thunder? Why subcede it to someone else's toxicity? A common problem in this world #women #womenssports #sports #trump

One low-budget hockey team refused to spend a lot of money on equipment. They were cheap skates. (It's #HootinTootinTuesday again!

We have absolutely loved the Winter Olympics. The BBC coverage has been excellent, and the guys on commentary for the snowboarding etc a whole new world of enthusiasm. From the women's half-pipe "she opened the door of the Messchasmit bubblecar" what the hell does that mean. #WinterOlympics #BBC
