I usually travel with family, but have some experience with short and longer solo ski tripping. The cave man chauvinist in me is particularly impressed when I hear of females going on long solo trips, because of the safety factor. Of course traveling for a week to a very civilized ski resort is quite a bit different than traveling alone for a month to Patagonia or Kyrgyzstan. One of the articles mentions using technology and social media to connect with others when traveling solo. Websites like this one are great for that sort of thing in a ski trip scenario. Another article is about beating high costs when much travel is based on "double occupancy".
