  • Bring It on September 6, 2020 I Have This Winter All Figured Out. Click to Download
    September 11, 2020 PRESIDENT’S LETTER Bring It On I have this winter all figured out. My ski buddy Mark has been helping me prepare for upcoming COVID restrictions at ski resorts and Nordic centers this season. Plan #1: We carpool - when he drives I offer to buy gas and lunch. We have Epic and Ikon passes to avoid ticket windows. We change in the car to avoid crowded lodges. When nature calls we use the woods. Lunch will be an especially good deal for me at 50 cents a day for Mark’s two cups of hot water—one for the instant coffee and one for the oatmeal packet he brings in a backpack along with dried fruit and nuts. Oh, and we always ski midweek thanks to jobs that allow us to time shift. When Vail CEO Rob Katz says skiers need to wear face coverings, stay physically distant and reserve in advance, I say bring it on. (http://news.vailresorts.com/corporate/vailresorts/winter-operating-plan-2020-letter.htm) ​This isn’t the first time skiers have faced a winter crisis. Skiers figured out a way to pursue their runs during the 1973 gas crisis. Let’s not forget those historically low snow years, for example, 2017-18 in the West and 2015-16 in the East, not to mention the disastrous 1976- 77 season when snowmaking wasn’t as advanced as it is today. Snowsports enthusiasts will demonstrate great resourcefulness and resilience again this coming winter. Of that I am sure. Whether skiing or riding one day or 20, we’ll all be happy to get back out again.

  • From: Lee Greenwald To
    From: Lee Greenwald To: FS-objections-pnw-mthood Subject: Twilight Parking lot Date: Monday, March 03, 2014 11:44:20 PM Attachments: 2013 International Report on Snow Mountain Tourism.pdf Cross-country skiing experiencing a Nordic renaissance Olympian.pdf Twilight Parking Lot OBJECTION 3-1-14 EAE v2.doc Dear objections official, I previously raised several objections concerning Mt Hood Meadows application to build the Twilight Parking lot. Though some, not all, of these objections were ostensibly addressed in their responses, they were not addressed fully nor adequately. I raised concerns regarding Meadows assumptions on growth in demand for Alpine skiing. The last ten years MHM stated continued growth trends, but actually the most recent previous two years that has not been the trend. The true growth is in Nordic skiing. The majority of the Nordic community is against the creation of the Twilight lot without a comprehensive analysis of potential future use of this terrain, and nearby Nordic trails and connecting trails. This type of analysis has not been done, and would be precluded by proceeding with the construction of the Twilight lot before all future use options have been considered. Second, I asked that MHM be required by the FS to place the funds, $500,000, for a Nordic center in a designated account for a future Nordic center building, and a restrictive timeline for construction. If the parking lot is to be built, the Nordic community should have some prior input on the Nordic facility to be built prior to the lots final approval. The response that was posted simply stated that "a" facility would be built within three years.
