I went onto the Mammoth Forums and apparently the vent was off of Chair 3 (FaceLift Express) near Christmas Bowl. I was a groomer at Mammoth for a short while back in the early 80's and never knew something like that existed on the main side of the ski area. I knew they were on the backside...

Breaking News but 3 patrollers were killed and a 4th rescued as they fell into a volcanic gas vent. Ten others were injured, but don't know if they were employees of MMSA or not. Just heard it on the news and came onto Liftlines hoping to find details.

I heard from the Forest Service District Ranger that Angeles Crest Resorts apparently have a buyer and they will give a 5 year permit or more depending on the buyer. Sounds like Waterman/Kratka may have a chance of living on!

I have contacted a lawyer that was an avid Mt. waterman skier about forming a 501C non-profit organization to start the Mt. Waterman Foundation similar to what they did at Mt. Ashland. I will keep this board updated as to progress! Tom Moriarty TomMoriarty@HomeSmart-Inland.com

Additionally, as to the idea of a Foundation several years ago Mt. Asland in Oregon faced a similar situation where lifts were about to be pulled and a Foundation was formed by the community as a non profit. I not exactly sure how it worked, but it was something like they raised so much money...

I would have to respectfully disagree with Snowave, Mt. Waterman has 50 plus years of a track record under Lynn Newcomb and if he is interested in or is involved with a group wanting to restore Mt. Waterman and Kratka he deserves more of a commitment from the Forest Service than 1 year to make...

I managed MW for Lynn for many years and talked to him today. He is working with a group interested in taking over Waterman/Kratka again but it sounds like the Forest Service would rather have it go away. Lynn said the FS would only give a 1 year permit at this time while they evaluate what will...
