Because there are access roads and trails on the side of one

taxes to pay for higher level services. The idiot jumping out of
the helicopter is intentionally avoiding the areas that are covered
by ski patrols AND the price of admission to those places.

So, his helicopter fees don't contribute in any way to those costs?
(Maybe - maybe not, I don't know - do you?)

And what percentage of ski rescues have resulted from someone
jumping out of a helicopter anyway?

A *lot* are caused by people skiing in forbidden areas.

Define "forbidden area".

Off designated slopes.

Not a skier - does being off designated slopes mean that skiing there is
forbidden, or something else. The word forbidden implies to me something
similar to illegal.
