Kayla Anderson, Marketing Manager (775) 832-1120, Kda@Ivgid.Org MEDIA CONTACT: Kayla Anderson, Marketing Manager (775) 832-1120, [email protected] Dear Media Partner, Don’t worry, ski happy at North Lake Tahoe’s Diamond Peak. This is a place with miles of welcoming, un- crowded runs, open tree skiing and 1840 feet of vertical. Enjoy easy access from lot to lift, award- winning ski schools for all ages and ability levels, the best value for lift tickets and the most breathtaking views of Lake Tahoe. Our Crystal Ridge trail was voted in CNN Travel’s “Top 100 World’s Best Ski Runs” due to its’ incredible views. New this season, Diamond Peak features better grooming technology, a new learn to ski and ride program, and improved tree skiing. New this season, we have improved grooming and snowmaking capabilities and great deals to give skiers and riders the best snow experience at Diamond Peak. Diamond Peak is introducing new snow cats with ‘Snowsat’ technology, giving Diamond Peak the ability to track all aspects of the operation including run time, gas consumption, GPS tracking on the mountain, and service maintenance. Snowsat- installed cats can be tracked real-time, so the grooming supervisors/managers always know the location of the fleet on the mountain. This season, the resort will also be testing new low energy snow guns that use 1/4 th of the compressed air needed for the older guns. These guns are expected to be 5-9 times more efficient, moving water at a more resourceful rate. Guests at Diamond Peak can take advantage of amazing deals, stretching out a ski vacation longer without breaking the bank. Enjoy incredible ticket deals like the Flex Pass (available in 2-7 day increments, fully transferable, and direct-to-lift access), the BYOP offer (a $35 lift ticket if you bring a season pass from another resort), or the affordable $64/$69 Adult lift ticket rate. Kids 6 and under ski free at Diamond Peak, so a couple with young kids can ski for as little as $128 (based on two Adult tickets and two tickets for kids ages 6 and under). After the slopes, guests may turn in their ticket stubs at the Recreation Center to get ½ off a daily fee to enjoy the 8-lane indoor swimming pool, sauna, massages and fitness equipment. The Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe, located just minutes away from Diamond Peak, offers great ski and stay packages with an après atmosphere by the lake. With 655 acres of terrain and incredible views of Lake Tahoe, Diamond Peak still proves to be North Lake Tahoe’s hidden gem. If you’d like to visit Diamond Peak this season or other Incline Village General Improvement District facilities, please contact either Marketing Coordinator Jaclyn Ream or I and we’d love to give you a tour. Feel free to contact us for any additional information and updates, or visit diamondpeak.com. Pray for snow!

Here are some reasons to visit Diamond Peak this winter: National Debut of SNOWsat Grooming Technology Diamond Peak will be the first grooming fleet in the country with PistenBully’s new SNOWsat technology. Two new PistenBully winch cat and Park Pro snowcats, along with the remaining existing fleet, will be outfitted with this innovative technology to produce optimum slope quality, efficiently and safety. These GPS-enhanced snow groomers generate a cartographic image of the slopes used to accurately measure snow depths and ensure the best coverage for skiers and riders. Coupled with a GIS mapping system, the two cats with SNOWsatZ will also allow operators to more safely groom during whiteout conditions. SNOWsat aids with snowmaking accuracy thus minimizing environmental impact and conserving natural resources. PistenBully snowcats are at the forefront of the industry worldwide and were used in the 2014 Olympics. New Electric Vehicle Charging Stations Two electric vehicle (EV) charging stations were installed at Diamond Peak in the spring of 2014 allowing drivers to charge their EVs while on the go and fully charge their EV in a matter of hours. The four Eaton 70-am 240V J1772 Level 2 chargers are networked via ChargePoint. ChargePoint requires a membership but are free for the public to use for the first five years. http://www.diamondpeak.com/news/details/chargepoint-stations Ski More, Save More with the Flex Pass Formerly known as the Mini Pass, the new Diamond Peak Flex Pass is one of the best ways to save money this season!

MEDIA CONTACT: Kayla Anderson, Marketing Manager (775) 832-1120, [email protected] Diamond Peak Ski Resort History From Ski Incline to Diamond Peak Diamond Peak Ski Resort began in 1966 as Ski Incline, the brain child of Oklahoma native Art Wood. Wood had a master plan for a year-round, resort community at Lake Tahoe. Incline Village was to become the “Pebble Beach” of the Sierra. In 1966, Wood hired Austrian ski consultant, Luggi Foeger, to design and build Ski Incline. In November, after only four months of construction, Ski Incline opened its lifts, boasting the only snowmaking equipment in the West. In 1987, Ski Resort Manager Jurgen Wetzstein led the development of the upper mountain and the addition of a mile-long chairlift to reach the top of the peak. This expansion doubled Ski Incline’s skiable acreage and added more advanced terrain. With the increased acreage, the resort extended the snowmaking system to cover the upper mountain along with adding more grooming equipment. Since most of the new trails were labeled “black diamond,” Ski Incline was re-named Diamond Peak.

  • June Mountain Ski Area Vegetation Management
    JUNE MOUNTAIN SKI AREA VEGETATION MANAGEMENT PLAN Inyo National Forest Mono Lake Ranger District OVERVIEW Background Located on the Mono Lake District, June Mountain Ski Area (JMSA) is one of two alpine ski resorts operated under special use permit on the Inyo National Forest. The ski area is currently undergoing a severe mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) outbreak which has affected whitebark and lodgepole pine stands on over 150 acres within the ski area boundary. Additional acres are currently infested outside ski area boundaries, both outside and within designated wilderness areas. It is expected the outbreak will continue and intensify based upon the number of new infestations detected this past summer. Forest activities are guided by the Inyo National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan). The Sierra Nevada Forest Plan Amendment (SNFPA), Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement, Record of Decision, which amended the Forest Plan on January 21, 2004, sets goals and objectives for management activities which will restore natural ecosystem processes while minimizing threats to life, property, and natural resources. Regional Forester direction clarifying recreation management issues related to the SNFPA were issued in a letter dated June 24, 2002. Issues were related to Regional Soil Quality Standards, Incidental Removal of Vegetation and Down Woody Material, and Limited Operating Periods for Pine Marten within developed recreation sites and impacts to recreation-related activities. The first two issues were resolved with clarification; the third issue was resolved with errata to the Plan Amendment. Purpose and Need The purpose of this project is to develop both short and long-term vegetation management strategies for all areas within the boundaries of JMSA.

    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.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE HERE’S WHAT’S NEW AT SKI CALIFORNIA RESORTS FOR WINTER 2019-20 Resorts invest millions in new chairlifts, lodge renovations, all new food and beverage offerings, signature experiences and much more PETALUMA, Calif. (Oct. 3, 2019) – On the heels of a strong winter season that extended the season of many resorts in California and Nevada—one into late July, Ski California and its 32 member resorts are gearing up for the 2019-20 winter season with significant investments designed to enhance the experience for skiers and riders this season and beyond. This includes a new chairlift, lodge renovations, all new food and beverage offerings, signature on-mountain experiences and events, ways for passionate skiers and riders to save on lift access and much more. “Ski California resorts have continued to invest year over year in facility and on-mountain improvements that enhance the skier experience,” said Michael Reitzell, Ski California president. “This season is no exception, and with the excitement that is already building thanks to early season snowfall, snowmaking firing up at some of our resorts with recent cold temperatures, and plans by at least one of our resorts to open later this month if conditions allow, winter will soon be underway in California and Nevada.” For those who want unrestricted, fully transferable access to all 32 resorts in California and Nevada, the 2019-20 Ski California Gold Pass is on sale now.
