This 640 by 480 pixel JPG animation will take a while to download as it has 14.7 Mbytes of bulk to it, even though Intel Indeo(R) Video R3.2 compression was used. Minimize this window, go away and come back later. You will be glad you did!
This animation models an intermediate run that first heads
southwest, then drops more to the south beside the wetlands
shown in the Final Environmental Impact Statement,
Alternative D, page 2-12. With happy
disregard for the powers that be, I ski past the
cutback to the proposed new Montana lift, and then
out-of-bounds to where I think the lift terminal
should go.
Notice that this site incorporates a natural slow skiing
zone and avoids potential safety concerns.
The animation was made using VistaPro 4.0 and USGS Digital Elevation Model data for the Lookout 7.5 minute quadrangle. The trees are individual fractal equations, so I have reduced their number so that individual frames take less than an hour to render. Therefore, expect to see more trees on the mountains across the way when you ski here next season (2003/04). The river is a mathematical function that flows downhill regardless of the weather, but don't expect to see much of it when you are skiing here for real.
