Matt Hasenohr breaks down SkiMo, local races and events, and it’s debut in the Olympics this winter. Seems like a lot of work to get turns but I guess not everyone is as, ahem, efficient (lazy) with their skiing as I am. It was a motivational interview to me for getting on the touring gear more. Enjoy and see you on the snow soon!!!

Today I talk to one of the key people in Government Camp again. Dave Winterling is the Director of the Mt. Hood Museum and Cultural Center and he gives us an update on what they were up to this summer, what’s coming this winter and future plans for the Museum. He tries to spill the beans on a future episode as well but I shut off his mic. Just kidding, I don't know how to do that... ;-)

Enjoy an update on one of my favorite places to go in Govy!

As always, love to hear what you want to hear. Get in touch at poormana@hotmail.com

The museum website is: https://mthoodmuseum.org/

Today we talk to John Vermaas and Hunter Bissler about grooming the trails, tech, and snow science. If you've ever wondered how that trail was turned from moguls and ice to silky smooth corduroy, well, take a listen.

Sorry for the delay - Been super busy with non-podcast life action. And I'm skiing again so that takes precedence over typing and recording!

Thanks to Skibowl again for letting me see how the sausage is made from the inside.

As always, shoot your ideas to poormana@hotmail.com

Matt Nelson talks to us about his local newspaper for Mt. Hood, The Mountain Times. It’s an interesting look inside publishing and how his paper is thriving when other major papers are dying off.

Today I’m so stoked to introduce Asit Rathod to those of you who don’t have the pleasure of knowing him. We talk life of a pro skier, our beloved mountain, and his new book “11,239, a Skiing and Snowboarding guide from the summit of Mt. Hood” It’s a good talk, some great stories, and quite of bit of swearing so warn the kiddos.

Book can be bought here: https://www.amazon.com/s?i=stripbooks&rh=p_27%3AAsit%2BRathod&s=relevancerank&text=Asit+Rathod&ref=dp_byline_sr_book_1
