Box 889, Park City, Utah 84060 Group discusses local mountain trail system Last summer, a 1-mile hiking trail between the base of the Sundance Ski Resort and nearby Stewart Falls was opened to the public. Resort owner Robert Red-ford Red-ford spent an estimated $25,000 preparing the trail, posting anodized aluminum signs, etc. If public participation is used as the standard, then the project was a great success. About 2,400 people hiked the trail on the Fourth of July alone. However, those same people, according to one report, left about three inches of dust on the trail as thousands of shoes pounded the same narrow stretch of ground. The same dilemma is now facing officials in the Park City area: how to develop a system of hiking trails without with-out ultimately destroying what people have come to see. Among those carefully exploring the possibilities are Tom Cammermeyer of the Norwegian School of Nature Life and Stella Hage-man, Hage-man, a student at the University of Utah who has made the Park City trail system the focus of her doctoral dissertation.

Her goal is to catalogue those trails so that eventually eventual-ly they could be made part of a public system, open to locals and tourists alike. "It wouldn't be that hard to make this an interconnect system of hiking trails," she told a recent gathering of University students. "What we ultimately anticipate is a Wasatch system of trails from Logan toProvo." Some of the students were openly skeptical. One wondered won-dered why the trails should be developed at all. Another saw Park City's interest as being purely commercial: the trail system would be one more tourist trap. But Cammermeyer Cam-mermeyer attempted to respond to those concerns. "You don't need a trail like Sundance," Cammermeyer argued. "You don't have to have the impact." He said there has been discussion about involving middle school students in making small wooden signs for some trails so they would have a vested interest in protecting them. Other trails could be left unmarked, he pointed out. Cammermeyer said his interest is in minimizing the impact, but not shutting people out entirely. "Because Park City is a tourist town, there is tourism. They're going to put a trail system in, whether we're involved or not." Hageman agreed. "The trails are there already," she said. "If we can organize them, you can spread the people out. If they come here, and there's not a system for them, they're going to destroy the wilderness wilder-ness that is there." Since much of the land around Park City is privately private-ly owned, Hageman and Cammermeyer recognize the need to contact owners before the system is developed. devel-oped. "We've already got tentative tenta-tive permission from some of the resorts," Cammermeyer said. Hageman is also working with the faculty of the Treasure Mountain Middle School to establish an outdoor out-door education curriculum. "Eventually, we'd like to get an environmental learning learn-ing center out in the wilderness wilder-ness somewhere," she said. Even the smallest ads are read. mm, Whadd'ya Enow? by Rick Brough We don't get involved in politics, but "Whaddyaknow" feels compelled to call for the impeachment of the entire City Council. Their hastily-timed snow resolution has resulted this week in a cold front that has, so far, deposited 140 billion tons of snow in Park City. And that's just in Swede Alley! Realtors report that property values in town are plunging mainly because no one can find his property. Royal Street reported to city police that six entire subdivisions in Deer Valley have disappeared. "I don't understand it," said general manager John Miiller. "They were here a minute ago." Tragedy was narrowly averted Tuesday when Hayduke the avalanche dog helped searchers locate the Utah Coal & Lumber Restaurant under a large mound at the bottom of Main Street. "We were very lucky," said a volunteer. "He's one of the few dogs in the country trained to sniff out salsa." How did it happen? The council based its resolution on the fallacious supply-side snow theory, which says that any snowfall is a stimulant to the economy. The more the snow falls, the more local business will be stimulated. But this ignored the most important principle we know from demand-side theory that the snow is most effective in locations where it is needed, like the ski slopes of the nearby mountains. In other areas, the cost-benefit ratio is less like, say, piled up to the ninth row of bleachers at the PCHS football stadium. The City Council can only avoid public disgrace by immediately instituting martial law, which would include the following disaster measures: Any car that has been buried for three straight days will be officially designated as a ski run. Sleeping-bag dormitories should be set up at the Memorial Building and Marsac for those Old Town residents who cannot get to their abodes. Emergency relief lines will be set up to provide, food, clothing, and Margaritas for homeless Parkites. The city Planning Department will waive parking and setback requirements for igloos. Any citizen found singing "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow" shall be confined in the City Hall dungeon. The sentence shall be no shorter than five days, and no longer than the amount of time required for Hell to freeze over. (At the rate we're going, this period of time should be about 15 days. ) Nobody works harder than Jere Calmes to establish new traditions in Park City. Last weekend, for example, Jere led a group in what he called the First Annual Summit County Pub Crawl. In one Saturday, the merry-makers hit the 23 liquor establishments in the county. This ; was not as difficult, logistically, as it sounds. Twenty of the bar stops were in Park City. Calmes told "Whaddyaknow" he was joined in his trek by Walt Bishop, Craig Murlee, and Tony Utley. Their goal was to get at least one hard-liquor set-up (occasionally (occa-sionally they took two) from each pub. Dennis McClure stayed sober for his role as chauffeur. They started about 2 p.m. at Bunny's in Coalville. (Other out of the way bars were the Beaver Creek Inn, in Kamas, and the Silver Spur, in Francis.) They finished at 11:25 that night, at the Claimjumper. Calmes said that, yes, he does remember what he did that day. In fact, the group had the presence of mind to log their arrivals and departures on a tape recorder. Jere might play it one day on his Sunday morning radio show. And you can safely expect a broadcast somewhat below the standards of Edward R. Murrow. "By the time we got to the 9th or 11th bar, we were slurring into the tape. It become difficult to spit it out." There were no surly bar fights or confrontations during the tour. "No one threw up." But in some bars the patrons thought the Crawlers were pretty weird. "They weren't used to having four people walk in equipped with half a gallon of liquor each." Perhaps the most interesting reaction came from the lady in the Alamo who heard about the Summit County Crawl Tour and asked, "Where's Summit County?" Said Calmes, "Obviously a registered voter." By 6 p.m. that day, the group still had 16 bars to go. "It was a very easy afternoon and a terrible evening," he recalled. That night came easier, though, as the group got hearty welcomes from such establishments as the Rusty Nail, Sneakers, the Ore House, and Prospector Sirloin. Calmes calculated each person consumed about a quart of liquor and spent around $34 in the trip. Transportation was underwritten by PennWest Securities. For the future, Jere plans a pub tour of Wasatch and Utah Counties. "That'll probably take about 15 minutes," he said. The least inspired idea heard this year was the suggestion, made from within the bowels of the Reagan Administration, to tax unemployment benefits. The purpose of the tax, reputedly, was to keep unemployment from being too comfortable. As a matter of fact, there are many so-called calamities that are taken advantage advan-tage of by lazy people. To cure the problem, we recommend some of the following steps : If a student at Park City High School falls sick, they will be given extra homework. In this way, the student will not be so blase about the luxury of laying in bed, coughing, sneezing, sniffling, losing sleep and throwing up in a wastebasket. Accident victims at the Park City Ski Area will no longer be coddled. If you are injured, you have to drive to Alpha Beta for the splints and the bandages. You're also expected to bring back a six-pack for the Ski Patrol. If a person is fatally swamped by snow at Wasatch Summit, why should the beneficiaries benefi-ciaries of his insurance policy be the only ones to benefit? The state can ease its swollen deficit by selling the frozen victims as decorative planters. It's a Small World Dept.: Remember we reported that local actress Madeline Smith recently joined the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) but had to be listed in the rolls as "A. Madeline Smith" because, somewhere out there in the universe, another SAG actress had the same name? Now comes the announcement that Park City's resident star, Hal Linden, is making a TV-movie called "The Other Woman." And it turns out his co-star is the other Madelyn Smith (albeit spelled differently). We hope Linden doesn't get confused. But all he has to do is distinguish between Madelyn, the minor star in Hollywood, and Madeline the major star in Park City. ft WW SKI TUNE SPECIAL $10.00 ALL SKIS TUNED BY HAND FLAT FILED SIDE FILED HOT WAXED REG. $15.00 Good thru 12-5-82 PARK CITY RESORT CENTER NEXT TO THE GONDOLA PARK CITY HOLIDAY VILLAGE OPEN 9 TO 9 EVERY DAY Answering Service Professional, courteous and personalized answering service 8:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday Secretarial Service Letters, resumes, contracts, legal typing, dictation transcription (round-the-clock phone-in dictation service available).
