  Now me-
  Sorry Stormbringer, I must disagree, Hermione was only planning to
go skiing with her parents during the winter break.  I'm fairly
certain that OP says nothing about her planning on skiing during the
summer.  Hermione was most likely in contact with the Weasleys'.  It
is possible that the Order felt that as she was such good friends with
Harry, she might be in danger of attack from LV attempting to get at
Harry.
