It’s competitive position changed dramatically with the opening,in 1958,of Bachelor Butte ski area west of Bend (the name was changed to Mount Bachelor in 1983),now the state’s largest ski area.

Some of the proceeds were used to install a new 1,400-foot double chair lift,and make other improvements.Thurston remained involved as the largest single stockholder in the corporation. Approaching retirement age and needing to raise capital for improvements and upgrades,Thurston in 1964 sold the ski area to Hoodoo Ski Bowl Developers,Inc.,for $200,000. In 1967,the Big Lake Airstrip forest fire wiped out trees at top of Hoodoo Butte.It was the first of two forest fires that would change the area’s appearance,which is dramatically different than depicted in photos taken by Hosmer in the 1940s. By the time Hoodoo’s 50th anniversary rolled around in 1988,skiers were celebrating the installation of the Manzanita lift,a triple chair that replaced the two-person “blue” chairlift.The resort then boasted two lodges,three chairlifts and 16 runs cheap north face jackets. Hoodoo’s next big step forward came after Eugene developer and real estate investor Chuck Shepard purchased the ski area in 1999 for a reported price of $1.5 million. That summer he installed the “Hodag” summit lift.The corporation,headed by several businessmen from the Salem and Corvallis areas,sold stock to the public for $25 a share. The lift was the first of $8 million worth of facility upgrades under the new ownership.The centerpiece was a massive new 60,000-square-foot day lodge.

It’s unbelievable – we just got news that our new album is number five in the popular music charts. Graham McPherson,aka Suggs,is positively tripping over himself with the news that,36 years after they first formed in Camden Town,Madness can still sell enough records to dent the charts.True,the sales figures today for recently released album Oui Oui Si Si Ja Ja Da Da don’t compare to the multi-millions sold in the late 1970s,but for Suggs that isn’t really the point. As you went over the top of the headwall,sometimes you had to hold your ski tips somewhere up near your chin,he said.If the tips caught in the snowbank,it would pop you right out of the chair north face mens jacket. With the exception of U2,neither of us can think of a band of precisely similar vintage that is a) still operative with the same personnel,and b) still able to dent pop charts around the world with music that,while brand-identifiable,still offers some kind of valid creative work ethic. Oh,God,the record sales aspect has changed out of all recognition,” posits Suggs. I was sitting in my back garden the other day with Mike Barson ,and his son was doing a college film about how downloading has affected old farts still operating in the music business. But without shoving one’s big nose in to all the dark corners of modern popular culture and asking why,you have to accept that.The most important thing for Madness is that we’re all still here north face mens jackets.
