While researching, I came across a citation for this article from 1987, tracked down one of the authors, and had a old fashioned chat with him. He kindly e-mailed me the article.

I just uploaded it to the Archive, and thought I would share the link because it's timely, and I know a bunch of you will find it interesting; if not from a planning perspective, but from a historical and naming convention one.

Thanks for posting, fascinating stuff.

Be safe out there everybody.

That pic is from Aspen....Ted of Dav said it was out of bounds but next to a groomer.

That’s the top of Highlands. Loge Peak is the chair in the background.

Enjoy Loveland. Enjoy Colorado. Enjoy the drive. I'm not pinning anything on you Auv and Jess. As mentioned, I suck at the internet. Your also a PHD, you should be my internet consultant. You must be smart. The interview process starts now, I need memes.

If you suck at the internet, just post less.

You are welcome. I'm a geek who gives a fuck.

Glad you found it interesting or insightful or just had a good shitter read.

It's about the jest of the post. C'mon people.

Hear here: look, smile on your brother, everyone stick together, and my add: use your fucking brain. Please. We don't need anymore dead mags. Said to self.

No. They didn’t even open Spaulding or Copper Bowl. Only frontside. They didn’t get Sierra or Resolution open until about 1pm. With another 10” last night, I highly doubt Tucker will open today. Or tomorrow for that matter.

**Telemarketeer** · 03-09-2019, 08:33 AM

Apparently they are still cleaning up widowmaker debris so traffic is being held in Keystone FYI. Could be an hour or two they said. Wtf? Could have told people that earlier?

**rudy** · 03-09-2019, 09:38 AM

Agreed, this is bullshit

Another 8” at CB and it’s going blue. Hopefully Spellbound opens.

**smmokan** · 03-09-2019, 12:06 PM

Beaver Creek was super soft and fluffy this morning... but it got tracked out QUICK (which is why I'm now posting from home).

I'm not sure what was going on, but it seemed like they gave hundreds of people early access before the "official" 8:30 opening.

**Hott Butt Mud** · 03-09-2019, 12:09 PM

They have a first tracks 'club' that gets to go early on some days. Sounds like today was one of the days.

Could be you for $150!

**smmokan** · 03-09-2019, 12:13 PM

Yeah, kind of what I figured... they must have had hundreds go up early. It was pretty amazing to see how many tracks there were already, and I was on the lift at 8:30.

Yep, same thing at Vail with first tracks today for some of the "Vail Signature Clubs

"

I get ads for that shit on Instagram. I mean, with all the internet advertiser knowledge, can't they tell I don't ski soul 7s?

**montanaskier** · 03-09-2019, 01:04 PM

It was tracked early but the snow was awesome!

All of the above. One of the more interesting things I noted was they had a chance in the 70's to move a 500k gallon water tank that resides in a slide path above homes, for $100k, and didn't do it. Far as I can tell from satellite the tank is still there.
