[net.rec.ski] They are still skiing on Mt. Hood

Attention Skiiers:

	There is still good skiing to be had on the Palmer Snowfield
	on Mt. Hood (in Oregon).  Be sure to bring your sunscreen
	cuz it's mighty bright up there (9k ft).  Hurry though, the 
	season closes Sept 13 (and will probably re-open in mid-November).

	The really fun part of summer skiing on Mt. Hood is not the
	skiing per se, but watching the tourists that ride the chair part
	way up the mt.  They stand around and behave like they've never seen
	snow before.  It's like they are watching some strange ritual
	that they don't quite understand and certainly can't sympathize
	with.
