It addresses backcountry riders’ motivations to voluntarily negotiate hazards in this ostensibly risky recreational activity. Through participant observation and interviews, this work explores how concepts including commercialization and commodification, edgework, and self-control contribute to the identity management of backcountry snowboarders. Importantly, this thesis analyses backcountry snowboarding through the serious leisure paradigm, wherein participation contributes to riders’ perceptions of risk and motivations to continue participation. This work contrasts the risk perceptions of professional backcountry snowboarders with amateur participants, outlining the fundamental differences in their experiences of voluntary risk in this activity.

  • DEIS Comments 2016
    August 24, 2016 Planning Team Leader Forest Plan Revision 1323 Club Drive Vallejo, CA 94592 Sent to: [email protected] RE: Inyo National Forest Draft Land Management Plan and Draft Environmental Impact Statement for Region 5 Early Adopter Forests Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Inyo National Forest (INF) draft land management plan and the three Forest Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). Friends of the Inyo is a locally-based nonprofit conservation organization dedicated to the stewardship, exploration, and preservation of the Eastern Sierra’s public lands and wildlife. Over our 30 year history, Friends of the Inyo has been an active partner with the Inyo National Forest, initially providing public comments on actions stemming from the Forest’s 1988 forest planning process to today where staff, members, and volunteers have contributed well over a quarter of a million dollars in in-kind labor, interpretation and support across nearly every professional Forest discipline. We represent a collective voice of more than 700 local and regional members. We have engaged in the INF plan revision process since the development of the Forest Assessment in 2013. These comments follow our comments submitted on Desired Conditions, Need to Change and Scoping comments. Our approach is to support and improve the preferred alternative; however, there are instances where we believe other alternatives better address a resource or issue and in these cases we ask the particular component be moved to the preferred alternative. We worked with a variety of species experts and collaborators on these comments and in some cases we use their language for our comments.

  • When I Grow Up
    A skier on the brink of making it. A young climber with aspirations of international competition. An emerging photographer with a career in sight. A teenage snowboarder with powder fields of opportunity underfoot. Meet the next generation of mountain-sports athletes, guides, instructors, and storytellers. These are their dreams and their challenges. By Jayme Moye lauren powers was 10 years old when she made a life- altering declaration: “Mom, I need a snowboard.” Powers, now 29, remembers that precipitating moment of self-awareness clearly. It was 1999, and she was standing atop an intermedi- When I ate run at the local ski hill in Kitchener, Ontario, where she grew up. As she peered over the edge, an unexpected thought detonated in her brain: I hate skiing. In hindsight, Powers thinks it was the body position, the sensation of pointing her skis Grow Up straight downhill that she didn’t like. “I needed to be in a dif- ferent direction,” she says. Powers got her first snowboard that Christmas, and it quickly became her favourite possession. After high school, Powers moved to Banff, Alberta, so she could snowboard in the big mountains of the West. “All my friends’ moms thought I was going to ruin my life,” she says. She didn’t let the naysayers deter her. Powers understood life in her hometown was linear: high school, university or college, a 4 good job, marriage, and kids. Deviating from those expectations was frowned upon. But her own parents had met in Banff in the 1980s while they were cleaning rooms at the Fairmont Banff Springs resort and she thought they had turned out just fine.

  • Activities ORCA Recreation
    Activities ORCA Recreation The Outdoor Recreation Council of Alberta (ORCA) believes that all forms of outdoor recreation bring tremendous social and economic value to Alberta and Albertans. These activities need to be responsibly managed and supported by all levels of government. Achieving this requires informed and collaborative input from every type of activity. The Outdoor Recreational Activities ORCA represents include a broad range of activities that range from contemplative pursuits to high energy sports that are enjoyed in the outdoor environment. Many of these activities are most commonly enjoyed by individuals, families and small groups in an unstructured manner. This does not naturally encourage the development of strong organizational structures. As a result, it is often difficult to obtain input from most outdoor recreation families and communities on issues that impact them. As a broad based collaboration, ORCA fills this need. The following list illustrates the range of activities that ORCA represents. It may not be a complete list, because new activities develop from time to time. The list does not include any forms of motorized recreation. ORCA welcomes the input of the OHV community and agrees that OHV recreation also needs fair access to Crown Land. ORCA seeks constructive dialogue with all stakeholders to ensure that all needs are considered in the management of public lands.

  • Union Creek Avalanche Accident Report December 2, 2007
    Crystal Mountain Snow Safety Union Creek Avalanche Accident Report December 2, 2007 Prepared by Paul Baugher, Chris Morin, Crystal Mt Ski Patrol/ Snow Safety and Mark Moore, NWAC Accident Summary Time: December 2, 2007 (unverified) Location: Union Creek Basin, northeast of Crystal Mt, WA Activity: In camp (backcountry snowboarding trip) Avalanche Type: SS-N-R4-D4-O Caught: 3 Buried: 3 (completely buried in camp site by large natural climax avalanche) Injured: 0 Killed: 3 Recovered: June 21, 2008 Recovery Location: N46°55.749 W121°26.894 (WGS84 datum) Incident Summary On the evening of Friday, November 30, 2007, three Seattle snowboarders arrived in the parking lot of the Crystal Mt Ski Area. “The three men were Kevin Carter, 26, Devlin Williams, 29, and Philip Hollins, 41. All were from the Seattle area”- Pierce County Sheriff’s Department spokesman Ed Troyer. Due to the lateness of their arrival it is believed they bivouacked somewhere in the immediate vicinity that evening. According to interviews with friends and family the group had planned to spend the weekend backcountry snowboarding in, and or near, Union Creek Basin. This is a backcountry area on the east side of the cascade crest several miles east of the Crystal Mountain ski area. Their “last seen area” was on the east side of the cascade crest, below the Bullion Saddle, descending into Union Creek Basin Saturday December 1. They were observed by a local backcountry skier: “… They dropped in at the saddle between Bullion and Union. Since we skied the Union drainage the day before I noticed that there were snowshoe marks and what looked like a splitboard that had broken way from my uptrack.

  • Teton-West Yellowstone Winter Recreation Economy Report
    Teton-West Yellowstone Region Backcountry Winter Recreation Economic Impact Analysis Photo: Tom Turiano Full Report Mark Newcomb November, 2013 1 Abstract This report presents the results of a study that analyzed the annual economic contribution of winter backcountry recreation in Grand Teton National Park, parts of the Bridger-Teton and Caribou-Targhee National Forests, and areas around West Yellowstone in Gallatin Na- tional Forest and Yellowstone National Park. The economic activity impacts communities in Teton County, Wyoming; Teton, Bonneville, Fremont and Madison Counties, Idaho; and West Yellowstone, Montana. We define backcountry recreation to include backcountry skiing and snowboarding (aka AT); cross-country and nordic track skiing; snowshoeing; walking/jogging on groomed backcountry trails; and over-snow biking. The population in- cludes residents of the communities in the region who participated in one or more of those activities as well as nonresidents who participated in one or more of those activities during the course of their visit. We gathered data via surveys administered to a random sample of residents and nonresidents over the course of the 2012/2013 winter season. We estimated the population by aggregating Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement data, National Vis- itor Use Monitoring Data, Grand Teton National Park trail counts and concessionaire use data. We find the total annual direct economic contribution of these activities in the re- gion to be $22,564,461. We estimate the annual direct economic impact by nonresidents who participate in these activities while visiting the region to be $12,073,815. We esti- mate the annual economic contribution of residents to be $6,473,919.
