I do wish there were more variety in Master Skier, particularly destination articles, but their stories are well written and sometimes very intriguing. Rocky Mountain Nordik Skier continues to be a kick, combining offbeat features with unusual sketches. I'm told the first issue of Cross Country Skier is out, which is a relief, but have yet to see a copy. And last, I got a look at the inaugural issue of Sierra Ski News, Volume 1, Number 1. It carries significant XC material.
Plans are to publish monthly.
Some time ago I voiced a concern about the next generation of ski area operators. It's good to know that skiing genes can be transmitted. By the way, despite the ballyhoo about a terrible season, Norsk was open 82 days. I'm delighted to announce that Telemark Resort in Cable is reopening. From the mid-'70s into the early 1980s, the resort was as famous as Trapp Family Lodge.
