A Fabulous Start to Our Winter Events! A Day Well Lived!

Our January day trip was a great start to the ski season!   For all of us who helped put it together it was truly a day well lived!  Six year old Emma was definitely a hit!

The loss of a great guide!

Note from the Webmaster:  Please send me your stories and pictures for our Remembering Matt Stein page!

It is with a very heavy heart that our president, Vicki Post, writes to let you know that our beloved guide, Mat Stein, died yesterday afternoon. We do not yet have a lot of information, but we know that he was rock climbing and just collapsed. He did not fall or anything like that; he simply
collapsed, and they were unable to revive him.

Those of you who knew Mat, who skied with him, who were guided by him, know what a huge loss this is for SRSFL. He was a caring, exquisite soul, a brilliant engineer, a free spirit with a wonderful
bit of rebel in him. He brought so much to our program and to this world. He had a way of instilling confidence in people he was guiding. He was always available to discuss hiking trails and more; heck, he even gave Margie the shirt off his back one day. Continue reading

Sad news! For the first time in 26 years our 3 Day Ski Event has been cancelled!

Arash and MaryIt is hard for me to believe we are canceling the 3 day event this year!  With the hotel and bus needing to know by this week and low skier enrollment we felt we had no choice.  The bus alone is several thousand dollars!
If we get enough snow, we will add a day trip on Saturday March 10th instead of the 3 day event, so stay tuned and do the snow dance!
