Cranmore Mountain
Schneider put Cranmore and North Conway on the skiing map. Skiing had been established in the Mount Washington Valley at Whitneys' Slope in Jackson and the old Wildcat Trail in Pinkham Notch. Schneider's arrival, however, elevated North Conway 's reputation and made Cranmore the place to ski in the East. Using his natural skill and vast knowledge acquired in his years of teaching in Austria, Schneider developed a ski school at Cranmore and taught his Arlberg technique to students from across the globe. Together with Gibson, Schneider laid the plans for the growth of Cranmore, which began with the expansion to the summit of the mountain and the completion of the already-famous Skimobile.
