Ever wonder where all those mas-sive pickup trucks hauling snow-mobiles are headed this time of yearWant to feel what itrsquos like to rideone of those mechanical beasts firsthand

Cisco Rodriguez owner of Bak-er Sleds in Bellingham may be justthe man yoursquore looking for

Opened in October Baker Sleds

offers both beginner and expertsnowmobilers alike the chance tohit some of the most beautiful snow-mobile trails in the Mt Baker areawith guidance from experiencedriders

The company rents some of thebest snowmobiles availableRodriguez said These snowmobilesreferred to as mountain machinesare designed for challenging ter-rain with multiple ascents and

descents he said They can reachspeeds of 80 mph and are equippedwith two-stroke 800-cc engines Forcomparison a common size formotorcycle engines is 250 cc

ldquoItrsquos the equivalent of riding adirt bike on snowrdquo Rodriguez said

Baker Sleds rents their mountainmachines for $250 per day eachwith trailers to haul them costing$50 If two sleds are rented at thesame time Baker Sleds will throw

in the trailer for free The compa-ny does not rent helmets or snowgear Rodriguez said

Though that might seem a littlepricey Rodriguez said itrsquos a lot bet-ter than buying a snowmobile andusing it infrequently Snowmobilesalone can cost as much as $12000not including the trailer and truckpowerful enough to tow it he said

ldquoWhat I tell people is the machineis the down paymentrdquo Rodriguez

By Jeremy Schwartzsays laughing ldquoTherersquos so muchother stuff that goes with itrdquo

Baker Sleds also offers guide serv-ices for anyone from a first-timerider to an experienced snowmo-biler The services start at $100 perday Rodriguez said

A slew of avalanches and acci-dents in recent years has meantsnowmobiling has had its share ofbad publicity points out Rodrigueza member of the Whatcom Coun-ty Snowmobile Club Thatrsquos one ofthe reasons Rodriguez started Bak-er Sleds Rodriguez said he wantsto show how exciting it can be whendone safely

Though the experience can beexhilarating Rodriguez said theimportance he puts on safety can-not be underestimated

ldquoIt can be a dangerous sportrdquo hesaid ldquoWersquore not out here to get peo-ple hurtrdquo

Rodriguez explained the firstthing anyone interested in snow-mobiling should know is his or herown limitations Recognizing howfast to go and how rough the ter-rain is can be the difference betweena fun ride and serious injuries Snow-mobiling is a physically demand-ing activity and Rodriguez said hehas come across many people whosimply donrsquot realize how exhaust-ing a day out snowmobiling can be

Another lesson for beginners tolearn quickly is the importance ofa group Rodriguez said No one inthe Whatcom County SnowmobileClub ever goes out alone he saidRodriguez suggested beginners getinvolved with a snowmobile clubso they will always have someoneto go riding with

ldquoWhen a machine gets stuck inthe snow itrsquos 500 poundsrdquo he saidldquoYoursquore not going to pick it up byyourselfrdquo

Baker Sleds is the only companyin Whatcom County that offersrental snowmobiles and guide serv-ices for traversing the countyrsquos sno-parks Rodriguez said Sno-parksare areas specifically designed for

use by snowmobilers WhatcomCounty has more than a dozen sno-parks each maintained by the Unit-ed States Forest Service Rodriguezsaid he mostly frequents CanyonCreek Glacier Creek and SchrieberrsquosMeadow during the season

Canyon Creek and Glacier Creekare located near the town of Gla-cier on the Mt Baker Highway (stateroute 542) Canyon Creek is reachedfrom US Forest Service road 31north of Glacier while Glacier Creekis just south of town on forest serv-ice road 39

Schrieberrsquos Meadow is part of theMt Baker National Recreation AreaIt can be reached by taking stateroute 20 to Baker Lake Road head-ing north for 12 miles and then weston forest service road 12

Each sno-park offers maintainedtrails and numerous areas with

breathtaking scenery Sno-park per-mits are required for all sno-parksduring the season Permits can bepurchased from Cross Roads Gro-cery in Maple Falls

meaning that people who come hereare at the mercy of nature By andlarge thatrsquos what most people comehere for and those people appre-ciate that the ski area is managedin a way that encourages the natu-ral atmosphere As Howat puts itldquoWe do these things because whensomeone comes to Mt Baker theywant to feel like theyrsquore at a specialplace and not at a city plopped downon top of a mountainrdquo

This philosophy is a traditionthat reaches far back in time Aes-thetically the region is an exemplarof the great Northwest forests andhas the majestic geographic featureof the Mt Baker volcano Edmund

Despite Mt Baker Ski Arearsquos rep-utation for deep snow and gloriouspowder days Gwyn Howat opera-tions manager for the ski area saysthat some of the best days that stickwith her and the people she has metover the years are the days when theconditions are bad or those rainydays when you feel like you are theonly one on the mountain

Itrsquos when you have that feelingof just being happy to be in a cer-tain place with friends she explains

that you know you are somewherespecial Being born into a familythat has helped build the ski areafrom the ground up and beenemployed at the mountain for over19 years Howat literally has thisfeeling in her blood

That authentic and special feel-ing the outdoors produces is whatmany people in the Mt Bakerfoothills find unique and so reward-ing Mt Baker Ski Area is one of thefew ski hills not offering high-speedquad chairs big screen tvs plushlodging and other amenities com-mon at most ski areas

Here at Baker ldquothe mountainmakes you be realrdquo says Howat

Coleman who in 1868 along withthree local settlers were the firstmen known to summit Mt Bakercreated a scrapbook of the area andused it to encourage Congress tocreate a National Park designationfor the area It took 40 years but in1908 the Washington National For-est was created

In 1928 a lodge was built in theHeather Meadows area created asa destination for nature lovers Thismassive cedar lodge burned downfour years later just as the area wasbeginning to be recognized as a pre-mier spot for the new recreationalsport of skiing

As skiing gained popularity inthe rsquo30s and rsquo40s people began todrive the road to Heather Meadowsto reach the slopes in what wouldbecome the Mt Baker Ski ArealdquoHikers these days just think theyare hardcore but those guys werethe true hardcore skiers of Bakerrdquosays Howat adding that they wouldactually side-step all the way up theAustin slope in order to make itlsquogroomedrsquo and ridable

One adventurous engineer cre-ated the first lift at Mt Baker ldquoTheDonkeyrdquo which consisted of a sledgeand winch system This dangerouspiece of machinery operated untilit and its creator were taken outin an avalanche

Faced with a threat by the high-way department to close the roada group of early die-hards recog-nized that in the absence of the

lodge there would need to be a rea-son for the mountain road to bemaintained and pooled theirresources to form the Mt BakerRecreation Company which even-tually became the Mt Baker SkiArea

They did it because they lovedthe mountain and wanted to pre-serve it for all people to enjoy ldquoDoit rsquocause you love itrdquo says Howatldquoitrsquos the same principle that guidesthe management of the ski areatodayrdquo

The last of the original board ofthe company just recently passedaway but the stake in the compa-ny has been passed down with thestakeholdership remaining in manyof the original families today Every-one involved still understands theoriginal purpose for the companywhich is the reason you wonrsquot beseeing advertisements plastered allover the ski area or developmentcrowding every possible square foot

This founding story is similar tomany Western ski operations theirorigins found in the frontier-mind-ed skiers of those early days MtBaker Ski Area however has man-aged to hold onto that ethos whenthe vast majority of ski areas havetransformed into consolidated win-ter theme parks

During the rsquo90s when snow sportsand the economy in general boomedmany ski areas invested in upgrad-ed equipment and expansion thatbegan a cycle of debt and sponsor-

ship As ski areas began to go fur-ther into debt more and more beganto rely on sponsorships andincreased ticket prices to pump outmore and more revenue As the econ-omy tightened many ski areas wereforced to sell to larger corporationsin order to survive

Mt Bakerrsquos original philosophyprovided insulation from this cycleof debt and loss of independenceWhile ski areas blew out their budg-ets to market themselves as the ulti-mate winter theme park Mt Bak-er Ski Area used its profits tomaintain what they had and slow-ly upgrade its facilities When timeswere tough they hunkered downand waited for better days

ldquoWhen people call to find outwhatrsquos newrdquo Howat says ldquowe tellthem we are what we are which isa ski area at the end of the roadPeople come here for the skiing not

for a plush destinationrdquo Throughall this Mt Baker has gained thereputation as a premier ski andsnowboard destination while main-taining one of the lowest prices forlift tickets and season passes

They have also become an impor-tant and stable mainstay for thesurrounding community This isimportant to the company to bean interactive part of the commu-nity Howat points out that every-thing about Mt Baker is grassrootsThe music the artwork marketingpublications and even some of thefood items are all locally made

The ski area provides free lift tick-ets to more than a thousand stu-dents who participate in their 5thgraders ride free program Thesekids who according to Howat arethe only people she has met whocould possibly be as hardcore asthose original Mt Baker skiers arealso provided a free breakfast bythe mountain and local baker ErinBaker ldquoMt Baker Ski Area is com-

munity-based with a worldwideapproachrdquo says Howat adding ldquoweunderstand that itrsquos not the peoplecoming in from out of town whosustain usrdquo

Responsibility to the communi-ty and to nature are driving forcesthat derive from the companyrsquosfounding philosophy of doing whatyou love Itrsquos the understanding thatMt Baker Ski Area is reliant on itsenvironment and its communitythat guides its actions

In an economic environmentwhere this line of thinking goesagainst the grain it can often bevery challenging and requires a lotof energy Howat says For herthough ldquoseeing the familiar faceswho are up there early in the morn-ing is a very tangible benefitrdquo Itrsquosone that will keep Mt Baker oper-ating as it is for a long long time

s Gwyn Howat in the backcountry

Gwyn Howat said the newest thing at Mt Bakerisnrsquot high-speed quads or wi-fi access in the lodge

ldquoOne thing that goes on under the radar is whatis happening at the ski area on a day-to-day basisrdquoshe said Howat is talking about several new pro-grams at Mt Baker aimed at providing youth greateraccess to nature ndash something she thinks is increas-ingly lost from American life As each generationbecomes more connected to cell phones computersand the internet Howat said youths are becomingincreasingly disconnected from nature

And according to Richard Luvrsquos new book ldquoLastChild In The Woods Saving Our Children From NatureDeficit Disorderrdquo Howatrsquos observations are not faroff the mark

ldquoYouth not only in the Mt Baker community butin American society in general seem to be develop-ing a different relationship with nature than any gen-eration before themrdquo she said

Q At least half of Mt Bakerrsquos pass-holders areunder the age of 18 What specific things haveyou noticed among that demographic

A Wersquove noticed it starting with something assimple as dressing inappropriately The kids take forgranted their environments are artificially controlledthey just think the lights are always going to be onand therersquos always going to be heat You see it whenyou see kids waiting for the bus in the snow in a t-shirt The other is navigation and route planning anda sense of time Many youth in our Ski Bus programseem to have a difficult time correlating route plan-ning with time frame They seem to have a differentawareness around it It seems to be much more chal-lenging for them

Q Why do you think itrsquos important for kids tohave access to wilderness

A We are living in an increasingly technologicalsociety and the mountains are a great place to pro-motes these skills that are being eclipsed by tech-nology But therersquos also a sense of freedom kids getfrom being in an outdoor place without having ateacher or a parent around A few weeks ago I askedsome third graders where they like to play and theiranswer was they liked to play indoors because thatrsquoswhere all the electrical outlets are

The whole concept of recreation means to re-cre-ate But theyrsquore also finding a direct connection tocreativity Our sense of wilderness in America mdashwhich is very unique in the world mdash has spurred aparticular type of creativity thatrsquos directly connect-ed to our culture to our music industrial designand art than other industrialized societies which havebecome more focused on efficiency and interactionTherersquos a creativity that comes with simply havingaccess to open spaces

Therersquos also a huge body of evidence that chil-drenrsquos development and a huge part of their creativityand self-assuredness comes from being in natureElectronics wonrsquot give that the ldquopiecesrdquo nature pro-vides like the dirt the trees branches rocks andsnow The only toys that come close to that is Legosand maybe thatrsquos why theyrsquore so popular There is acertain creativity that comes from having to con-struct things out of nature If children are only sur-rounding by plastic toys and electronics theyrsquore miss-ing this other element that is not replicated anywhereelse yet Part of why we donrsquot have a day care isbecause we want to encourage parents to interactwith their kids in nature to help make the experi-ence as rich as it can be This is not like going tothe mall itrsquos a rugged environment with special con-siderations (Please turn to page 16)

ldquoWith sports there will always beprogression For wakeboarding the winchhas allowed us to go places we neverthought were possiblerdquo Nick Ennen

Professional snowboarder NickEnnen grew up in Bellingham andhas lived most of his life in What-com and Skagit counties Althoughhe has traveled extensively acrossthe US and the world this is stillthe place he wants to call home

ldquoItrsquos got everything that I needrdquo

he said ldquoHere itrsquos all a step up fromother places You can go ride yourbike in Florida but yoursquore not goingto find any hills to air off of InWashington ndash especially Belling-ham ndash everything is so close I cango out my front door and in 10 min-utes be on a mountain bike trailthree different lakes or salt waterItrsquos also got tons of snowmobilecountryrdquo

Ennen also a longtime pro wake-boarder recently launched Agua

Please a new web series on Fueltvwith the help of local filmmakersJeremy Dubs and Scott Studach ofWild Card Movies (How The North-west Was One and Saturday NightRide ndash two other films he also starredin and helped direct) The weeklyseries follows local wakeboardersas they fly over raging river rapidslog rides and waterfalls in locationsranging from the Nooksack RiverSan Juan islands to Florida andbeyond

and phenomenal water volume ndash aplace that friend and photographerMike Yoshida called ldquonerve-rack-ingrdquo But Ennen nailed it on his firsttry and a photo of the ride was sub-sequently featured in an OrsquoBrienadvertisement

Ennen and his friends were ableto pull off this adrenaline-drenchedstunt using a winch At one pointas Ennen came off the second water-fall and hit the turbulence belowhe landed a little sideways and theimbalance sent him tumbling downthrough a chute flanked by boul-ders on each side Luckily he shotout of the rapids unharmed

ldquoIt was pretty scaryrdquo he saidldquoThere could have been some hardconsequences but I was OK Withall that power therersquos not much youcan do but just go for a riderdquo

Another episode showed Ennenand his friends wakeboarding downan old cement chute in WhatcomFalls Park in Bellingham

ldquoWe kind of got in trouble forthat onerdquo he said ldquoWe got a reallypolite letter in the mail asking usnot to do that againrdquo

Other riders featured in AguaPlease include Bob Soven MikeyEnnen Kevin Henshaw DustinOrsquoFerral Kyle Walton and CollinHarrington

Fellow rider and photographerDylan Hart calls Ennen a ldquolaugh-inducing board-destroying machineHanging out with Nick is a sure wayto have a good timerdquo Hart said ldquoHersquosput time into wakeboarding andsnowboarding and his talents con-tinue to see him progressing andpushing the boundaries of what ispossiblerdquo

Ennen plans to compete in the2011 Legendary Banked Slalom atMt Baker Ski Area in February

What makes this area specialIn the Mt Baker wilderness you

can really get to your own play-ground versus waiting in line at theski area Itrsquos pretty amazing to have360 degree views from Canada allthe way to Seattle with water andfarmland in between and a beauti-ful sunset I often find myself stop-ping and just being amazed at whereI live and what we have around usIrsquoll often stop and be like ldquoHeyeveryone lookrdquo

Irsquove done a lot of backpackingtoo so thatrsquos given me a lot of respectfor the wilderness and beyond

You are also starring in Satur-day Night Ride your second filmwith Wild Card Movies How hasthat been

We just premiered Saturday NightRide in Seattle where it brought inabout 1500 people and in Belling-ham where it brought in about 300to 400 people

Jeremy (Dubs) is super chill Hewas actually the guy who broughtme into the filming and videogra-phy side of things And I had beeninvolved in wakeboarding films sohe and the rest of us were all kindof doing the same thing and whenwe decided to collaborate and evolve

into Wild Card Movies we were real-ly able to make it professional Welike using funny plots and try toput a lot of humor in our films aswell Therersquos a lot of funny lines andone-liners

How has your snowboardinginfluenced your wakeboardingstyle

Irsquom trying to progress wake-boarding in ways that havenrsquot beendone before and also showcase oth-er local riders and show theiradvancement Irsquom taking (wake-boarding) to a different level withthe snowboarding influence I kindof have an eye for things like linesand cool obstacles or logs to jib Itrsquoskind of human nature to push your-self and the sport ndash otherwise itmight get boring

What do you eat when you arein the backcountry

Irsquom kind of a chef out there Inthe winter I like to take two of every-thing to cook in my muff pot adevice that heats food by attaching

to the exhaust pipe of your snow-mobile You can wrap a burrito orsome leftover spaghetti in tin foiland throw it in there and drivearound for a little bit and it getsreally hot

I probably eat twice the amountof food when Irsquom in the backcoun-try because you burn a lot of calo-ries between snowboarding stay-ing warm hiking and getting yoursnowmobile unstuck

What else does Nick Ennen dofor fun these days

I like to barbecue with friendsride my bike and mountain bikeGalbraith is really fun and Whistlerand Glacier have some pretty amaz-ing places to mountain bike Irsquovealso been playing tennis ndash like I saidI never stop doing things ndash go boat-ing in the San Juan islands and hangout on the beach looking for agatesor crabbing and fishing and cook-ing them over a fire on the beach(Agua Please can be viewed atwwwaguapleasecom) s Nick toe-sliding away

By Tara NelsonWhat was originally meant to be

an alternative to the increasingly-slick annual Warren Miller ski filmshowing the Mt Baker Film Festi-vals has become something of a leg-end in the world of skiing and snow-boarding

Each year the filmf festival hostsa line-up of local national and inde-pendent films ndash some gritty somepolished ndash for a crowd hungry forsnow

The festival started out 11 yearsago as a fun way to provide localamateurs a way to submit footageof their friends on the slopes buthas now attracted the attention ofsome of the industryrsquos biggest play-ers such as Teton Gravity Research

Poor Boyz Production and The Peo-ple Crew

ldquoIt was originally meant to be analternative to Warren Miller whichup until 10 years ago was the onlygig in townrdquo ski area operationsmanager Gwyn Howat said ldquoWewanted a venue to show independ-ent snow and skiing filmmakersNow wersquore a nationally recognizedfestival within the industry Thisyear Warren Miller had two showsand their combined attendance wasless than the attendance at our onesell-out showrdquo

Hosted at the 1500 seat Mt Bak-er Theatre organizers turned awaymore than 150 people at the doorHowat said ldquoIt was one of the bestline-ups wersquove ever hadrdquo she said

Here are a few highlights

Saturday Night Ride$1995 $2295wwwwildcardmoviescomLocal film collective Wild Card Films

Where To Stay Where To Eatamp


If yoursquore looking for an enthusiastic overview of the ski andsnow business drop into the Glacier Ski Shop and have a talk withJohn or Drew Adams the brothers who own the place Theyrsquove justfinished the expansion of their building and it wasnrsquot that old tobegin with

Drew seen below with some major league fatties attributes thesuccess of the shop to a number of fac-tors not easily duplicated

ldquoWe specialize in top-quality brandsthat are hard to findrdquo he says Pick-ing up a pair of gloves he says ldquoLookat these These are Hestra gloves fromSweden Fourth generation glove mak-ers and they know what theyrsquore doingNo frills just lots of quality Feel thatgoatskin on the Lobster glovesrdquo TheLobster Gloves ($110) have an unusu-al split hand that retains dexterity whilestill being as warm as a glove

Walking over to the ski selectionhe points out some of theboutique brands that areleading the industry ininnovative designs such asMoment Icelandic andArmada

ldquoEvery ski we bring inwe bring in for a demo andthen for a rental Peoplecan try all of the skis beforethey buy themrdquo

He doesnrsquot pause ldquoLookin here this is our expand-ed ski repair area We cando anything now Wait aminute Have you seen ournew boot dryer This driesout the wettest rental bootin under 30 minutes Itrsquosincrediblerdquo

Like I said the Adamsare enthusiastic

Economics 542You would think itrsquos pretty tough to be a local retailer

these days especially if yoursquore in the sporting goods busi-ness Especially if yoursquore in the ski and snowboard business

Not only do you have to contend with big box and inter-net competition yoursquove got an economic recession the likesof which havenrsquot been seen since the Great Depression Eventhe weather can have an impact And you thought farmershad a tough go of it

But look around The road from Bellingham to Mt Bak-er is home to some of the best sports stores in the businessTheyrsquove come through some tough years and theyrsquore stillgoing theyrsquore still the best at what they do The big box storescame (remember GI Joes) and they went Compare their pricesto internet stores and what do you find Yoursquoll see pricesthat are damn close if not better right here in the store downthe block from you

How come For one thing these guys are close to theircustomers and theyrsquore close to the sports they specialize inThey offer personalized service and if yoursquore not satisfiedtheyrsquore not satisfied They are the experts you never can findat a big box store or through your computer monitor Notonly are these people surviving they seem to be thrivingTheyrsquore expanding theyrsquore moving theyrsquore taking chancesand who benefits You got it We the customers

Owner John Hauter uses a sports metaphor when he talks about how his business has survivedand prospered ldquoWhat I dordquo he says ldquois respond quickly In 1971 the pace was a lot slower Nowthe ski business is all about change Irsquove learned to be very agile on my feet I can weave and dukerdquo

He praises the knowledge of his employees as being key to the storersquos success ldquoShoppers canexpect a level of expertise that is second to none You knowrdquo he points out ldquowe have an interest-ing demographic here Wersquove got three guys around 60 and the rest are all enthusiastic young gunswho are core users of the productsrdquo The old guys arenrsquot sitting on the bench either Theyrsquore stillout there riding skiing and competing in their fields

Hauter also cites their focus on particular niches ldquoWersquore selling a lot of Fischer skating skis andboots these days A lot of our road riders are switching over because itrsquos a good cross-over fitnessactivity Wersquove got a very exclusive line of skis called SkiLogic Theyrsquore high-end fat skis with woodveneers We have a narrower focus No one in the area comes close to us in Nordicrdquo

Boot fitting repair and ski tuning are a big part of the storersquos business ldquoThe repair shop is always buzzing I wouldnrsquot have myskis tuned anywhere elserdquo Hauter says ldquoAnyone here can size your boot and 80 percent of our customers will be happy For the oth-er 20 percent we have Eric Pfitzer (left with SkiLogic) When you have a problem you make an appointment with himrdquo

Sportsman Chalet owner Noel Lemke has owned the busi-ness for nine years and worked over 30 years in the sportinggoods business and says ldquoI would like to think Irsquove learned athing or twordquo Looking around the new location of the Sports-man Chalet a visitor soon realizes thatrsquos a pretty safe thingfor him to say

Asked about internet competition Lemke gives a noncha-lant shrug and says his store is very competitive with onlineretailers He adds ldquoIn the odd case where wersquore not I canrsquotmatch it if the customer doesnrsquot ask Irsquom happy to do sordquo

Lemke gives no ground when asked about the storersquos employ-ees ldquoOur main emphasis is on ski and snowboard We have the best roundedknowledgeable staff in town We test all of our products so we know what wersquoretalking about We have the best selection of skis and snowboards And mostimportantly our custom boot fitting skills are second to none We guaranteethe fit of our bootsrdquo And looking around he grins and says ldquoWersquove got a greatselection of clothes and other gear toordquo

Itrsquos been quite a ride since the Mt BakerSnowboard Shop opened its doors in 1989 butlast month Marcella Dobis and mother BobbieDobis decided to concentrate on their onlinesnowboard business and lease the Glacier retailshop to long-time employees and snowboard-ers Joe Trotter and Ginny Wilson

Trotter who has worked at the shop for thepast 12 years wants to keep the same feel andcarry it forward with energy ldquoWe just want tokeep it going get people stoked and have somefunrdquo Trotter said

The shop will continue to sell full snowboardgear and clothing and offer rentals and repairsAnd as significant as ever you can still pick upthe inimitable red black and gold logo stickerthatrsquos spotted on the backs of cars across thenorthwest and beyond ldquoThe shop that grewwith the great northwestrdquo

Q What programs are you offer-ing to help combat NDD

A We have our ldquoDads Moms andGromsrdquo program (groms is a term forlittle skateboarders) which helps pro-vide a social environment for childrenages five and six and helps give par-ents skill building tips on how to teachtheir kids

We also have our ldquoKomo Kidsldquo pro-gram a six-week program thatrsquos beenaround for 45 years and gives kids achance to progress with the sameinstructor At the end there is a racewhere everyone gets a participantmedal

We also have the ldquoWinter Riderdquo pro-gram a sliding fee program whichbuses in 1000 to 1300 kids through-out the season to the mountain Itrsquosa phenomenal way to introduce kidsto snowboarding and skiing We real-ly try not to have the monetary com-ponent be a real prohibiter for a kidwho might not otherwise be able toafford to go

Nature DeficitContinued from page 7

The other thing is wersquove been work-ing with Bakerrsquos Breakfast Cookies todonate free breakfast to all 1200 kidsand also provide an educational pro-gram along with that We did an infor-mal survey a few years ago and werealized that at any given day on themountain about half of the kids had-nrsquot eaten breakfast and if they hadit was basically sugar or energy drinks

Lastly my mom who was a fifth-grade teacher at Harmony elementaryschool helped us implement the fifth-grader ride free program in which wegive between 600 and 800 fifth-gradersunrestricted access to the mountainas long as theyrsquove had at least oneyearrsquos experience on the mountain

The program is worth about $50000to $80000 a year The reason we chosefifth grader is because by that agetheyrsquore strong enough and physical-ly able enough to handle it and theyare also a little more mature The oth-er thing we found was it was a greatway to get their parents who used toski or snowboard [the program requiresan adult presence] back on the moun-tain

The big question this La Nintildeaseason is how big is it going to bePrevious lsquoLa Nintildearsquo winters have typ-ically but not always resulted inphenomenal snow seasons the mostnoteworthy being the record-break-ing rsquo98-99 winter in which morethan a thousand inches of snow fell

Ski areas across the country areseizing on these expectations hop-ing to lure the ever migrant herd ofpowder hunters When it comes tothe hunt for deep powder thoughitrsquos usually best to find an area youlike and stick with it

Why One very important rea-son is that you will become a saferrider In terms of backcountry safe-ty experience and knowledge aboutthe local weather and terrain arethe most important preventativepieces of information you can haveSkiing similar gradients in Wash-ington and Colorado are completelydifferent in terms of safety

Riding in the Northwest espe-cially during and immediately fol-lowing storm cycles usually meansdealing with deep snow Heavy anddeep snow can be hazardous to peo-ple riding both within ski areaboundaries (in-bounds) and in thebackcountry (out-of-bounds)

When the Cascades are gettingthe snowfall typical of a La Nintildeastorm it is going to be falling inhigh amounts and it will general-ly be fairly heavy This type of stormcreates all kinds of hazards by bury-ing all the pockets of the terrainunder a large loose mass of snowTree wells are the typical trap which

iare created by snowfall filling inthe wells that form around the basesof trees These large pockets ofunconsolidated snow act as a kindof quicksand trap Rocks creeksstumps and simple undulations inthe terrain can also form this kindof hazard As an in-bounds rider itis still important to not be tempt-ed to go exploring terrain you areunfamiliar with for this reason

Recent winters have seen a hugeincrease in the number of skiersand snowboarders going into thebackcountry This is largely due tothe increasing ease of access to infor-mation and gear targeted at off-piste riding Avalanche safety class-es snow science books the internetand backcountry-specific gear havemade it seem much easier to go outof bounds

However even though equipmentsuch as avalanche transceivers areimportant tools they are always alast resort Safety is all about pre-vention in the backcountry ndash thegrim reality is that many accidentscan occur where a personrsquos life maybe in jeopardy even if they are locat-ed quickly

Preventing accidents and mis-takes in the backcountry is all aboutknowledge and experience This isespecially true in the Northwestwhere the storms that occur andthe snow that is produced can varygreatly in terms of the moisture ofthe snow that falls This has all kindsof effects on the stability of thesnowpack and these differencesare best learned through observa-

tion There is no information morevaluable than consistently being inthe mountains observing thechanges in the snowpack andorconsulting someone who has been

By constantly riding and assess-ing the snowpack you gain knowl-edge not only about what the moun-tain is capable of but also yourcapabilities as a rider This infor-mation is what every backcountryrider should be using when assess-ing any ski run

Consulting with experts is alsoa great way to increase your safetyawareness At Mt Baker the skipatrol posts sentries at every accessgate to the backcountry to ensureall riders are equipped with bea-cons and are otherwise preparedInstead of just waving a transceiv-er at them pick their brain regard-ing recent storm cycles and snow-pack conditions

The most important thing toremember is that every day is a newday on the mountain and in factevery hour is a new hour Snowpackstability can change rapidly andvary widely so always be on the look-out for changes and warning signs

It is up to each individual riderto be aware and responsible for theirbehavior in the backcountry whennovices or people unfamiliar withthe area hazard into the backcountryrelying on the knowledge of othersit puts everyone at risk

Hopefully everyone keeps safe-ty in mind the La Nintildea predictionshold true and we all have a safe andpowderful winter

From the time it took its firstbaby steps back in 1977 a local com-pany has grown to become an inter-national powerhouse in footgear

In fact you could say the com-pany has become Superfeet

Ferndale-based Superfeet designsand manufactures sport-specificinsoles for skiers snowboardersrunners and most every kind of ath-lete However their products arenrsquotjust for those heading off to theHindu Kush or the backside of theMatterhorn Anyone on their feetfor long periods of time or out fora walk will appreciate the fit andcomfort they achieve when slippinga pair of Superfeet insoles into theirdress shoes or walking flats Forgood reason members of the mil-itary have become enthusiastic fansof the companyrsquos products

Lack of proper foot support canhave a wide range of effects on thebody none of them good Foot struc-ture is the foundation on which thebodyrsquos skeletal system rests Mis-aligned feet can lead to pain andinjury from the foot up the legthrough the hips to the spine andshoulder and neck Improperly sup-ported feet also prevents the bodyfrom achieving a full range of move-ment and power

Despite the current economichard times Superfeet spokesper-son Susie Rickerts said the com-panyrsquos sales are up over last yearPeoplersquos health concerns are unre-lated to the economic climate shesaid and Superfeet sells productsthat enhances peoplersquos health andcomfort

To accommodate the boomingbusiness Superfeet will be movingto a larger facility near Hovander

Park in Ferndale The company isscheduled to move in around theNew Year

The new facility will replace threeseparate buildings they now occu-py with just one Rickerts said Thenew building totals 45000 squarefeet of workspace for warehouseand distribution services and offices

According to Rickerts the newfacility allows more office and dis-tribution space as well as dedicat-ed classrooms for employee train-ing The building should besufficient to accommodate the com-panyrsquos growth over the next five toten years

Superfeet was spun off fromNorthwest Podiatric Laboratory inBlaine in 1977 by ownersdoctorsDennis Brown and ChristopherSmith two experts in podiatric med-icine At that time Superfeetrsquos focuswas providing high-quality insolesfor skiers Rickerts said Now withmore than 35 insole patents Super-feet has expanded to provide cus-tom-fit and trim-to-fit insoles forall manner of athletes and non-ath-letes Brown and Smith still over-see design and production of all ofSuperfeetrsquos products

Superfeet is popular with skiersand snowboarders because of theenhanced performance and stabil-ity provided by the insoles Ridersmaking turns with improperly sup-ported feet can stress their feet lead-ing to pain and possible injuryInsoles allow the feet to be sup-ported and properly aligned result-ing in greater control and balanceon the slopes

For more information on Super-feet and how to find a retailer inthe Mt Baker area visit wwwsuper-feetcom Superfeet products arewidely available in shoe and spe-cialty stores in Whatcom Countyand beyond

The earliest reported sighting bya white man took place in 1811 nearJasper Alberta but Bigfoot has longoccupied a place in Native Indianmythology Sasquatch most recent-ly re-entered the public imagina-tion in 1967 with the famous Pat-terson-Gimlin film The short filmclip allegedly shows a Sasquatchwalking along a dry lake bed in SixRivers National Forest in northernCalifornia The two men responsi-ble for the film Roger Pattersonand Robert Gimlin have histori-cally maintained its authenticitybut even the Sasquatch believersdonrsquot always agree

While not much is heard aboutSasquatch in the mainstream mediathese days a lack of press coveragewithin the last few years has notdetered numerous amateurresearchers and investigators forwhom Sasquatch in one of twothings A mysterious being withsupernatural powers or a livingflesh-and-blood creature

Peter Spawn an EMT living inTulalip is a Sasquatch investiga-tor of the latter category When notdriving an ambulance for 24-hourshifts two days a week Spawnspends his days in the Mt Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest look-ing for a group of Sasquatches hebelieves is living in the area

ldquoFor me I know they existrdquoSpawn said ldquoTherersquos no doubt inmy mindrdquo

Washington state has beenSpawnrsquos home since about 2005Since then he has made numeroustrips to the national forest inattempts to better understand theSasquatches he believes live thereUnlike others Spawn doesnrsquot wastetime trying to prove the creatureexists but focuses on learning moreabout their movements through-out the forest

Spawn has come away from hisinvestigations with two main obser-vations The creatures appear to beintelligent and curious and seemto communicate with each otherSpawnrsquos first piece of advice for abudding Sasquatch hunter mdashbesidesknowing how to be safe in the for-estmdashis simply to go out and lookfor them

ldquoThey will seek you out if youseek them outrdquo he said

The national forest has offereda few places where Spawn believeshe has had genuine encounters withSasquatch He still vividly remem-bers his first trip three years ago toa spot near the small town of Ver-lot Washington where he said heheard a Sasquatchrsquos possible com-munication attempts

Spawn was camping near a smalllake at an elevation of about 3000feet The lake is surrounded on threesides by steep rocky cliffs coveredin dense undergrowth and boul-ders

During online research ofSasquatch Spawn came across aYouTube video of another investi-gator clacking rocks together inorder to communicate with aSasquatch Rock-knocking andwood-knocking are methodsSasquatch investigators believe thecreatures use to communicate witheach other Interestingly one Indi-an name for Sasquatch translatesas ldquotree-strikerrdquo

At the lake Spawn set up his videocamera and recorded himself knock-ing rocks together After three hourswith no response he decided topack it up for the day About 20minutes after shutting off his cam-era Spawn said he heard rock-knock-ing high up on a ridge to the left ofhim

The knocking he said was fol-lowed by small rocks rolling downthe slope as if a creature higher up

was walking along the ridge Whilehe did not see anything Spawn saidhe is doubtful a person would climbthat high up just to spook him

In addition to the lakesideencounter Spawn said he has hadseveral other experiences where hethinks Sasquatches have respond-ed to him with wood-knocking andeven followed him and a friendthrough the woods

While Spawn and others are cer-tain of the Sasquatchrsquos existencethe scientific community is skep-tical Professor Joan Stevenson abiological anthropologist at West-ern Washington University saysthere has been no credible scien-tific evidence to support the crea-turersquos existence

Further Stevenson doesnrsquot believethere is enough food or otherresources in the national forest tosupport a breeding population ofanother family of the primate orderThere has been no evidence thatany large primate other than humanshas ever populated the North Amer-ican continent

ldquoIt just doesnrsquot make senserdquoStevenson said ldquoWe donrsquot have aproblem with [the idea of] findingthis thing and showing that it existsbut to me [researchers] just donrsquothave sufficient evidence to showthat it existsrdquo

Spawn said he knows how out-landish his views on Sasquatch mayseem to those who havenrsquot had hisexperiences but he remains unfazedHis goal is not to prove Sasquatchexists but only to learn more aboutthe creature

The Sasquatch community hasa saying when it comes to the lackof scientific evidence for the crea-ture Spawn said ldquoWe have enoughevidence to convict Bigfoot of mur-der but not to prove it exists sci-entificallyrdquo he said with a laughMost of the Sasquatch communi-ty has long thought there is enoughphotographic and DNA evidencesuch as scraps of hair to show thecreature exists

But as long as the scientific com-munity requires more evidence thancourts of law the existence ofSasquatch in the forests of theNorthwest will remain in doubt Inthe minds of Sasquatch believersBigfoot lives on in hairy splendor
