Gloves Used Equipment Ski Boots Snowboards Clothing Skis Helmets Jackets/Pants Ski Sale: “Depot”! Do you have used ski/snowboard equipment or ski/snowboard clothing that you do not plan to use anymore? Think about selling that equipment or clothing at the Idaho Falls Ski Club’s Annual Ski Sale and Fest. The equipment and clothing needs to be in good condition and clean. All zippers and buckles need to be working. Skis should be clean and the binding working as originally designed. Obsolete binding and skis will not be allowed at the Ski Sale, this applies to snowboard’s. Clean and functioning equipment will be allowed in. Volunteers at the depot will check the equipment and clothing that is brought in for obsolete equipment or non- useful clothing. For the cross-country skier, there is usually a limited amount of cross-country equipment or clothing brought to the depot. So, you stand a good chance of having your equipment sell. Do not over-price your used equipment or clothing. Not all equipment or clothing will sell at the ski sale, but you want to present your equipment and clothing in the best light possible and at a price that a willing buyer will pay. It is not uncommon for a pair of skis with bindings that sold for $800.00 new, to sell for $25.00 at the Ski Sale after five years of use. The depot is on Thursday night and Friday morning, so gather your used equipment and clothing and bring them in. Remember, the Ski Club keeps a percentage of all sales, which is used to run other Club activities, such as subsidies for trips, parties, as well as the Instructional's. 5 (photos from last season’s avalanche refresher Once upon a time there were three skiers enjoying the back country. They did not live happily ever after. Two of them died, and the one who survived lives with the nightmare of that avalanche. Sadly, various renditions of this story are repeated multiple times every year. Those fortunate enough to have survived often comment, “it happened suddenly and without warning”. True, avalanches do happen suddenly. They are unpredictable and provide practically no time to respond. However, rarely do they occur without warning. It is well understood there are four basic ingredients that contribute to an avalanche; The Snowpack The Terrain Rescue Techniques The Weather And us, the backcountry adventurers Avalanche training is all about learning to identify the warnings in each of these contributing factors, and avalanche rescue techniques. On-the-job-training is not an option to avoiding or responding to avalanches. You’ve got to know the warning signs and how to respond in advance. If you are a back country enthusiast, consider registering for this year’s avalanche training course.

It’s also no wonder why so many eastern Idaho residents enjoy getting out in nature and Aexperiencing God’s country. Although there are numerous ways to recreate, one of the more popular summer activities is off-road travel on ATVs and side-by-sides. Eastern Idaho epitomizes the flavor of its western heritage. Pioneers, miners and loggers blazed their trails across our landscape. Many of the more rugged and out-of-the-way trails are still accessible on Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands. Partnerships between state and federal governments and motorized recreation groups have created an extensive trail system that opens the backcountry and offers exciting off-road riding for both residents and visitors to eastern Idaho.

    Pomerelle Post Trip Report For those who did not make our first Pomerelle trip, we regretfully tell you, “You should have been there.” It was fabulous. We were greeted by 4 inches of fresh powder that had fallen over night, and another inch or two accumulated while we were there. At the end of the day we were still cutting untracked snow. We plan two trips to Pomerelle each year. Don’t miss out on our second trip scheduled for Saturday, February 28th. Thanks to the club subsidy and a great rate from Pomerelle, these are our least expensive trips; only $15 for adults and $10 for juniors. That price includes both a lift ticket and a 1 hour lesson. See the full description of the trip on our web site.

ALLOCATION OF THE RISKS OF SKIING: A CALL FOR THE REAPPLICATION OF FUNDAMENTAL COMMON LAW PRINCIPLES ARTHUR B. FERGUSON, JR.* I. INTRODUCTION Skiing is a unique and special sport in which an individual skier's abilities are constantly pitted against a changing winter mountain envi- ronment, ranging from gentle groomed trails to steep, ungroomed slopes. The essence of skiing is the continual challenge of making suc- cessful, individual assessments about one's own abilities in light of the available terrain choices and varying snow conditions. Fueled by a significant growth in the popularity of the sport as a major recreational activity, ski area operators have invested millions of dollars in technological advances to develop, operate and maintain their areas. Not surprisingly, the ski industry, in general, has become an im- portant factor in the economies of many communities and states.
