Recently the AFP reported that China was experimenting on dispersing clouds to prevent rain during Olympic events. Conversely, officials claim that China has already set up an extensive system that may be able to make it rain during the games if needed. Now wouldn't this kind of thing be useful in the winter. Especially after the winter we've just had on the east coast with very little in terms of actual snow fall. A little rain would also be useful in fighting the forest fires that recently ravaged the western United States. On the other hand, this could also turn out to be just another modality to spread disease.

It was August 10th, 2007 when the AFP reported that chinese scientists were "conducting high-altitude tests to eliminate clouds and stop rain [from] spoiling next year's Beijing Olympics."¹ This was achieved by dispersing silver iodide and Diatomite into the atmosphere. These two compounds are thought to prevent moisture from forming into rain drops. Silver iodide is used as an antiseptic and diatomite is a naturally occurring, soft, chalk-like sedimentary rock so conventional wisdom would lead us to believe that the process is safe. At the very least, spectators at the 2008 Olympic games have little chance of catching some form of an infection while chinese scientist are pumping the air full of antiseptic. The idea of controlling the weather with chemicals does, however, raise a small red flag in my mind, although maybe I just watch too many James Bond type movie with over the top, megalomaniacal villains.

The one thing that I find most interesting about this is that silver iodide, having a crystaline structure similar to ice, can induce freezing to the moisture in clouds when disperssed in the air (in China they use old anti-aircraft guns to shoot cans of the compounds into the sky). The first idea that came to my mind when I learned of this was that this seems like a feasible way of making it snow. I suspect that if done properly, this could also be much more effective than arrays of snow cannons on your favourite hill, or even better, combine the two.

Apparently this technique called cloud seeding is not new which makes me wonder why I hadn't heard of it until now. Had I known about this, I would have focused my energies last year on cloud seeding the skies over Vermont and western Quebec instead of wearing my pyjamas inside out and flushing ice cubes down the toilet (which is commonly thought to be a fundamental part of the snow dance). Perhaps the researchers who study this know something that we don't such as: a) cloud seeding is prohibitively expensive or b) cloud seeding is a potential health hazard. In the first case, I feel bad for the people of China who will have to foot the bill for this when the Olympics come around in 2008. In the second case I feel bad for the people of China who will be exposed to cloud seeding and the side effects of this technique, probably even after the Olympics are done and gone. In either case, it looks like I feel bad for the chinese. In the meantime, I'll be accepting donations to the "seed the clouds to shred the gnar" fund in an attempt to raise money, kind of like a snow insurrance policy, to seed the skies if we are again in dire need of snow this winter. I give you my assurances that this fund will be used only in cases of emergencies, namely on days where I'm snowboarding and can't find any freshies. The governing body of this fund will not be elected for obvious reasons.

So next winter when your hitting the slopes and you notice a little precipitation starting to fall. Look up in the sky, you may be getting a random dose of anti-septic for a few fresh lines. One way or the other, the important thing here is to...

Keep shreddin' the GNAR!

I’ve only got $500 MORE LEFT TO RAISE!!!!   And only 1 week left to raise it!!!!

 

Thanks to those of you donating and helping me gain donations by spreading the link to my Leukemia donation site.  And a very very special thanks to those of you helping to collect tips for my hike at concerts of your friend's bands and other events.  That has really helped me to raise A LOT of money and I appreciate it so much.  Please keep it going as I'm still about $500 short of my goal.  So please send this link along to your family and friends.  Every $5, or $20 helps me to reach the goal.  Leukemia and Lymphoma and Hodgkin’s disease are very serious illnesses, especially for young kids.  So many in America , and around the world, are affected by Cancer each Day/Month/ Year.  This is our little way of reaching out and helping.  Thanks again everyone!   P.S. – so far my group of 28 hikers has raised about $100,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

This weekend – April 21^st – 23^rd       
Friday – PARTY AT FOX AND THE HOUND, PARK MEADOWS – LONE TREE , CO.  In order to help raise funds for my Leukemia Hike May 5^th, we are having a nice big party.  The donated items from the silent auction, plus the donation jars, should help raise some much needed FUNDAGE.  Please plan on attending – at least for a beer and some free appetizers.  Stay for the silent auction and all night fun. 

Saturday –  Michelle needs to be up in Gleenwood to coach soccer in the early AM, and I plan on taking on a couple interviews.  Not sure if we’ll make it up on the hill for Vail’s last weekend or not.  My SOS University program kids are graduating this night down in Summit – so we will be down that way for the evenings events.  

Sunday – Ride Day 48 – probably Vail.  Maybe Copper. 
   

 
Last weekend – April 14^th – 16^th     
Friday – NO riding for me.  My job interviews up in Vail went great… meaning I will be moving up there in the next 2-8 weeks, depending on which position I take.  Anyone got a room for rent? 

Saturday – Ride Day 46 – Riding with ALL my brothers – Jim, Kylan, and Reg – and my little nephew, Mason.  He’s 3 and can SHRED on ski’s.  The weather was crap, the snow was crap, so my attitude was somewhat crap.  But we did manage to have some fun up on Vail – due to the nice 4 inches of fresh stuff. 
Sunday – Ride Day 47 – All alone on Vail – good thing my trust iPod was there to keep me company.  It was about 60 degrees with lots of sun, such a nice day to watch the 100 ft pond skimming comp over on Golden Peak, Vail. 

 

FYI - Drew and I are planning on driving up to Echo mountain for the last FRIDAY it’s open – April 28^th – at about 5-6pm or so.  Drive time is about 35 minutes from my house, $15 lift tickets.

This weekend – April 14th - 16th    
Friday – Ride Day 46 – I will be heading up to Eagle Thursday night as I have job interviews most of the morning in Vail/Avon – hopefully be on the hill getting in a few turns in the afternoon.    

Saturday –  Ride Day 47 – Well, my little brothers are going to be in town so we should be shreading up Vail or BeaveCreek or Copper, not sure yet.    

Sunday – Ride Day 48 – Same schedule as Saturday, but heading back to D town late night.  Michelle get to fly to Tahoe for the entire Easter weekend to see her family – LUCKY!!! Anyone want to schedule a road trip to Tahoe with me before season ends?   
 

 
Last weekend – Apr 7^th – 9^th     
Friday – NO riding for me.  Since most of my friends are LAME and bailed out on the night riding at Echo… I decided to take care of some things, and pack up the pup to head to the hillz a little early.  Stopped in Dillon and Frisco to have a couple beers with the boys and Rebecca.  Then off to Vail where I was too late for the G Love show  L   Oh well.  Off to Avon’s to Loaded Joe’s – you can already tell the season is coming to a close up in the valley, as the crowds of normal regulars are starting to dwindle all over town.        

Saturday – Ride Day 44 – ONLY IN COLORADO can you wake up, play soccer in the morning with you shirt off, then snowboard at lunch for a few hours in a tee shirt or sweat shirt at BeaverCreek, then walk up to the Beave’ pool, and drop trow and jump in and swim in the sun for 2 hours.  GOD I LOVE THIS STATE!!!  The snow right now is typical spring – icy corduroy in the morning, softening by 10:30, squishy slush by noon = great riding, then too heavy and slow by 2pm in the afternoon.  The sun does some damage to the white wetness.        
Sunday – Ride Day 45 – SOS staff appreciation ride day.  We were at the Beave again with even HOTTER conditions.  Good thing goggle tans are in here in CO.  We mobbed over to the Keller Williams show at Copper later that afternoon to do some hippie counting.   J   Fun show, but lots of driving as we had to be back over in Avon to setup for the staff appreciation dinner.  Talk about an exhausting weekend…. So much fun though.  Did I forget to mention how absolutely amazing my girlfriend Michelle is? 

 

FYI - Drew and I are planning on driving up to Echo mountain every Friday night at 5 or 6pm until close.  Please let us know if you want to start car pooling with us on Friday nights – Drive time is about 35 minutes from my house, $15 lift tickets.

This weekend – April 7th - 9th   
Friday – Ride Day 44 - Drew and I are heading up to Echo around 5pm or so.  You down to get in a few night laps? 

Saturday –  Ride Day 45 – Copper again with Drew and others – more SunSation partying on the way.    Meet up with us if you can. 

Sunday – Ride Day 46 – SOS staff appreciation ride day at BeaverCreek - followed by some driving to Copper to see Keller Williams, then back over to the valley by 7pm for the social dinner event... wow that's a lot of driving. 
 

 
Last weekend – Apr 1^st – 2^nd       
Friday – Ride Day 42  - Drew and I hit up Echo for a few hours – REVIEW TIME – So, Echo mountain is located about 30 miles from my house.  The directions are simple and you can get there 2 ways, from I-70, or through Evergreen. Either way, it’s a really short trip.  The night riding is only one run, 4 jumps, a few jibz, and some ice.  The night lighting is kind of rough as some of the landings are in the shadow, but it’s do’able.  The jibs are decent and it was a lot of fun… especially for only $15.  Meaning we can go each week on a weeknight and get some of our fix in.  The lift is a 3 chair that’s not too slow, and all in the dark.  So feel free to party it up on the lift as no one can really see you.  We will be going EVERY Friday night as they close end of April – please show your support as next year, this place will be better if they make some money this year.        

Saturday – Warm up hike  with my Leukemia Society group – Nice trail – Belcher trail head by 9am , and hiked it up around White Ranch Canyon, or what ever its called.  Check out the couple pics I put up.    
Sunday – Ride Day 43 – Copper was hoppin’.  SunSation in full effect with Particle.  Danced it up with the girlie for a few hours after lapping the park all day with Drew and Michelle.  About 5 inches fresh, so we had a couple runs through the trees.  Michelle and I got a pretty late start, not getting on the hill till after noon or so.  But with the sun out, goggle tan in full effect on this fine Monday – Rockies home opener today. 

 

FYI - Drew and I are planning on driving up to Echo mountain every Friday night at 5-6pm until close.  Please let us know if you want to start car pooling with us on Friday nights – Drive time is about 35 minutes from my house, $15 lift tickets.

Last weekend – Feb 25^th-27^th  
Saturday – Flew to Puerto Vallarta in the AM and got a cab over to Punta de Mita. Surf wasn’t great that first day so we just chilled by the pool for the rest of the afternoon, then went to dinner on the beach.  SO Romantic – F*(k all you couples out there.  So happy and in love… Yea, I’m jealous, so what.    
Sunday –Breakfast in Sayulitas – surf town that kicks ass.  Not much for waves with a big crowd so we left and went back over to Punta Mita…. There is a little beach that you can hike to near Bucerias that had some great waves (for a beginner like me – hey it’s been 12 years so BACK OFF my lack of ability). 
Monday – The surf was crap in the morning so we just goofed off at the beach for a bit and then ran me back to Vallarta to hit the airport.  Quick trip, but completely worth it.

Saturday – Ride Day 30 -  SOS ride day #3.  We had a good turn out and a lot of fun.  SO COLD.  When I got to Breckenridge at 8am it was -18 degrees.  That’s cold.  Meet up with Trina, Brian (TruSpin14), and Kim for a couple drinks after riding.  Fun times. 
Sunday – Ride Day 31 - Rode hard at Breck with Drew and Liana.  I was actually kind of sore after this day.  Yea, we rode that hard. I had to re tie my boots, and that’s never happened before. 
Monday -   Ride Day 32 – Liana and I rode WinterPark.  The sun came out in the afternoon, so that was nice for my goggle tan.
