   The snow machines at Bachelor Butte (a 9600’ butte?) were a major benefit to Mt. Bachelor Ski Area. In the 1970s and 1980s they usually didn’t have enough snow to open for Thanksgiving weekend. So: snow machine.

   Nice sweater, Dad. Calvin, if you don’t like being disappointed, I’d think about lowering your expectations.

    How big of a snow-making machine would you need to cover Susie Derkins?

    Snow machines spit out little uniform pellets of snow. I wonder if that has a “ball-bearing effect” making people ski faster? Call me a flake, but I prefer the original, unique stuff. Of course I don’t ski.

    Snow machines spray a fine mist of water which if (and only if), the temperature is cold enough, crystalizes as snow.
