negative effects are many; litter, erosion due to areas being cleared for ski trails and walking tracks, impact on shy wildlife (marmotte, wolves etc), visual impact of lifts and cable cars, strain on resources such as water and sewerage. There is also the problem that if you have 500,000 people on holiday in an area you have to supply their electricity, water, food etc which has its own knock on effects such as pipe lines, cables, urbanisation of small towns etc.
Positive effects are just as many however; increased revenue to local economy, reduced unemployment, revenue to allow the set up of extensive national parks etc. In the end the mountains are beautiful, everyone should be free to enjoy them, I just think we need to become better at being kind to them!
