Master Plan for Upgrades We are nearing the end of the public comment period for the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the 2003 Mountain Master Development Plan (MMDP). Members of the public are encouraged to submit comments to the Forest Service, supportive comments as well as constructive criticism are welcome. All comments must be postmarked by Monday, March 6. The entire document can viewed at http://www.fs.fed.us/r5/eldorado. The master plan, an effort of the USFS and Kirkwood Mountain Resort, will comply with specific provisions of Kirkwood’s Forest Service permit and will aid long range planning efforts. All proposed upgrades and improvements will take place on lands located within the existing Forest Service permit. “Providing quality recreation opportunities is an important goal for the Forest Service,” says Amador District Ranger Jane LaBoa. “The planned improvements, if implemented over the next five to eight years, will result in a more enjoyable experience for the recreating public.” The plan is designed to enhance the recreational experience at Kirkwood by upgrading and improving the lift and terrain network; on-mountain guest services; snowmaking coverage; infrastructure; and non-skiing or riding activities. Please take a moment to express your comments on the MMDP no later than Monday, March 6 by emailing the Forest Service at srodman@fs.fed.us. Please include your full name, mailing address, and whether or not you want to receive a copy of the final EIS and Record of Decision. Your comments can be as brief or lengthy as you like. If you have any questions you’d like to ask prior to writing, feel free to contact us at info@kirkwood.com or call us at (209) 256-6000.

the lunchtime lull. Mom can sneak in a few more before the lifts
shut down, and you've only had to pay for one ticket! Buy these
tickets at the ticket window, and it doesn't hurt to bring your
baby to show them how cute he is (and to prove you've got one).
