    01 074 The Ski Journal THE P EOP L E’S RACE Kissed by the Devil at the Mürren Inferno 01 • Burn the devil! In a tradition to bring good weather, non-hazardous course conditions and a lack of serious crashes, a devil statue is carried through Mürren on Friday night as a fiery sacrifice to the race gods. Mürren Inferno 075 Words Kelley McMillan Photos Bruno Petroni ut of the darkness, the devil emerges. Cast in the rosy glow of hundreds of torches, he floats through Mürren, Switzerland’s cobblestone streets, past 19th-century farmhouses and sleds propped up outside of pubs. Cowbells clang in Otime with the marching band that trails behind the horned effigy. Hundreds of children, villagers and amateur ski racers—some wearing devil masks, others carrying candles—join the procession, winding through the village in a fiery snake toward the devil’s final resting ground. He is going to burn. It is a clear, very cold night in late January on the eve of the 02 Inferno, one of the oldest and longest downhill races in the world. The next day, many of these revelers will descend nine miles from near the summit of the Schilthorn, the 9,744-foot peak that rises above Mürren, down 6,463 feet into Lauterb- runnen, a traditional Walser village-turned-BASE-jumping mecca at the bottom of the valley. The Walsers are a group of Germans who migrated into the Swiss Alps more than 700 years ago, who still speak a unique version of the language and hold to a very definitive, mountain-specific culture—a perfect finish for a historic race.

  • Culture, Landscape & the Making of the Colorado Ski Industry
    CULTURE, LANDSCAPE, AND THE MAKING OF THE COLORADO SKI INDUSTRY by ANNE GILBERT COLEMAN B.A., Williams College, 1987 M.A., University of Colorado, 1992 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History 1996 This thesis for the Doctor of Philosophy degree by Anne Gilbert Coleman has been approved for the Department of History by Patricia Nelson Limerick Philip J. Deloria Date ACKNOWLEDGMENTS When people hear the topic of my dissertation, they often give me a knowing smile and ask if I am a skier. I say "I was a skier in my life before graduate school, when I had more time and a paycheck." This project has allowed me to explore Colorado's ski areas from the inside out, through their history, design, and marketing as well as their lifts, lodges, and trails. In the process I have met dozens of interesting people and incurred a number of debts. This project received financial support from the American Historical Association's Albert J. Beveridge Research Grant, the University of Colorado History Department's Douglas A. Bean Memorial Faculty Research Stipend and Pile Fellowship, the Roaring Fork Research Scholarship funded by Ruth Whyte, and from Dr. Giles D. Toll. I would like to thank all the people who helped me research this project, including Charlie Langdon at the Durango Herald, Mary Walker and Ingrid Schierllng Burnett at the Tread of Pioneers Museum, Sue Spearing at the Grand County Historical Society, all of the people at the University of Colorado Archives and the Colorado Historical Society, and Lisa Hancock, Jody Phillips McCabe, and my other friends at the Aspen Historical Society.

  • Skiing NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S and WOMEN’S
    Skiing NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S AND WOMEN’S Highlights Colorado wins 17th skiing crown; Buff s ice wire-to-wire win in rugged slalom conditions: In a dominant wire-to-wire win, Colorado locked up its 17th NCAA skiing title at Stowe Mountain Resort in Stowe, Vt. It’s the sixth NCAA crown the Buff s have secured during head coach Richard Rokos’ 20-year tenure, and their fi rst since 2006. Excited to once again be out from under the runner-up status it has achieved each of the past three years, Rokos noted the diff erence between winning and second is often just a bit of luck. “We came here to win, and that’s the same goal that we have every time we come to the championships,” Rokos said. “The diff erence this year is that we were able to stay healthy and all our alpine skiers fi nished both races -- most of them cleanly. You have to get lucky, you know, no matter how well you’re prepared.” The Buff s tallied an impressive 831 points throughout these championships, 80.5 points better than runner-up Utah, and 188 points ahead of third-place Dartmouth. Colorado rocketed to a commanding 46-point lead on the fi rst day of races March 9, nearly doubled it to 84.5 on March 11, and -- though relinquishing a sliver of that margin -- coolly secured the title with solid fi nishes by its alpine squads in diffi cult conditions at the slalom races March 12. After tons of snow, then rain, then more snow during the week, it was destined to be a bumpy ride on Stowe’s Mainstreet track, and there was indeed carnage in both men’s and women’s races.

  • Let's Toast 8 Amazing Skiers & Visionaries Who Made Maine the Way Skiing Should
    2015 Where most people saw snow, they envisioned mountains of opportunity. Let’s toast 8 amazing skiers & visionaries who made Maine the way skiing should be. Class of 2015 Induction Maine Ski Hall of Fame Saturday, October 24, 2015 Grand Summit Hotel Sunday River Ski Resort Newry, Maine 1 PROGRAM Masters of Ceremonies Greg Sweetser • Dave Irons • Russ Murley • John Christi e Class of 2015 Tom Kendall John Diller Megan Roberts Luba Lowery Bruce Chalmers John Ritzo Peter Davis Jill Sickels Matlock M ISSION STATEMENT The mission of the Maine Ski Hall of Fame is to recognize those skiers, who through their efforts and achievements have brought distinction to Maine skiing. Some of these skiers made their mark in competition. Others were founders who built the sport into a way of life for so many Mainers. Still more were teachers who led countless skiers and competitors into our sport. Some had an intense impact on local skiers while others gained prominence on an international scale. Thanks to these skiers Maine has an industry that is a vital part of the economy, not only in the mountains, but throughout the state. It is to recognize the importance of skiing to Maine and its citizens that the Maine Ski Hall of Fame has been formed. By enshrining those men and women who founded and built the sport in Maine, competitors who brought prominence to Maine skiing, their coaches and mentors, and others who have made significant contributions, we shall create a permanent record of their endeavors and achievements. By doing this we shall preserve this history for those to follow, that they may understand the great achievements of these individuals.
