Slide mostly buries car on highway Backseat shovels go to the rescue B y M A D E LY N B E C K

Express Staff Writer

ailey resident Mari Wania first thought she hit a snowbank on state Highway 75, but wasn’t sure given the poor road conditions. Her dog, Sita, seemed just as confused, she said. “I think she thought the same thing, like what the heck just hit us?” Wania said. She said she couldn’t see light through the passenger side of the vehicle, so she rolled down the driver’s side window and crawled out. Wania, 59, had been traveling north Sunday to visit a friend at Galena Lodge. She said it was about 2:30 p.m. when the slide hit her vehicle from the right side just south of South Cherry Creek, picking the car up about 10 inches and moving it off to the side. She said she didn’t find that bit out until later. Mari Wania She said her first inclination when she climbed out was to make sure the dog stayed in the car; she didn’t need Sita running out onto the highway. Once she was outside the car, her first thought was to grab a small backcountry avalanche shovel from the back seat and try to get the car out of the way for other travelers. By herself, that likely would have been very difficult. “Makes you go, well, I could use a bigger shovel,” she said. First on the scene were Kristen Kaiser Riemann (who works at the Idaho Mountain Express) and her husband, David Riemann. Kristen Riemann said they were traveling south from Galena when they came around a bend to find the slide. “It was about 40 feet wide and up to 6 feet deep,” she later wrote in an account of the incident. “It also picked up a CR-V heading northbound and shoved it around and was clearly stuck.” Kristen said David checked on Wania and Sita before waiting back at the car to make sure unaware traffic didn’t crash into them. Then, she said, they grabbed their shovels to help dig. “In less than a minute after, a few other fellas were there with their little car shovels. Then more. And a guy with a push shovel,” Kristen said. “Pretty soon, I’d bet there were 40 people,” Wania said. “It was amazing how many people showed up.” Soon, vehicles going both ways down the highway were parked in two lines and people helped dig the car out—but it wasn’t just the car. The people dug through the entire slide, making a lane for traffic. The Washington State Department of Transportation does warn motorists that, in the case of See AVALANCHE, Page 4

Cowpoke Scott Ping riding Kona Koffee pulls skier Cody Smith to a third-place finish in a two-day skijoring event held over the weekend in Quigley Canyon east of Hailey. More than 850 spectators witnessed two days of action combining cowboys, cowgirls, skiers and horses going through a 700-foot course complete with two jumps, six gates, two sets of skier rings, a testy finish area and a 400-foot runout. Sixty-five twoperson teams came from Oregon, Washington, Montana and Idaho to compete in the Wood River Extreme Skijoring event. Divisions included Open, Sport, Novice, Women, Youth and Pee Wees. Precipitating weather all weekend led longtime event organizer Bill Bobbitt to liken this sport to post office delivery mailmen, saying, “Rain, sleet, snow, whatever, skijoring goes on.”

Fish passage dispute ramps up in Legislature Bills aim to block reintroducing fish above Hells Canyon complex By PETER JENSEN Express Staff Writer

Idaho and Oregon have been locked in a dispute over fish passage in the Hells Canyon complex of dams for years, and that quarrel reached the floor of the Idaho House of Representatives on Friday. The House voted unanimously to approve a joint memorial that opposes any attempt to reintroduce salmon and steelhead in the waters of the Snake River above those dams. The memorial now moves to the Senate for approval. Those fish have been blocked since the dams were constructed between 1955 and 1967. In Hells Canyon on the Oregon-Idaho border, Idaho Power operates three dams on the Snake River— Brownlee, Oxbow and Hells Canyon—as well as reservoirs and power plants. The dams represent a huge portion of Idaho Power’s electric portfolio. They produce about two-thirds of the utility’s hydroelectricity, and more than a third of its total electric generation. Idaho Power has been attempting to renew its license to operate those dams with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission since 2003. The license expired in 2005, but Idaho Power has been operating on one-year renewals since then. The utility is seeking a 50-year renewal. Fish passage has emerged as a critical impediment. Since 2001, the state of Oregon has had a law that requires passage for native fish at any dam blocking a waterway. During the relicensing process, Oregon has attempted to impose fish passage as a legal requirement on Idaho Power. Under the Clean Water Act, the utility has to obtain certifications from Oregon as well as Idaho. Getting those certifications has created an impasse between the states—and led to increasingly sharp words among elected officials. On the House floor Friday, Idaho Rep. Van Burtenshaw, R-Terreton, said Oregon’s actions amounted to an assault. “I’ve seen few things in my lifetime that I think are a bigger assault on the sovereignty and primacy that Idaho declares over her waters,” Burtenshaw said. “They start in Idaho. They are for Idaho. We cannot allow anyone to have access to that most valuable resource. It’s a piracy.”

Idaho’s position

...and Then?!

Last summer, Gov. Butch Otter wrote a letter to Oregon Gov. Kate Brown, saying Idaho would not agree to its neighbor’s wishes. Oregon wants to craft an agreement with Idaho and Idaho Power that would target a tributary on the Oregon side of the border for reintroduction of salmon and steelhead, according to Otter’s letter. That tributary, Pine Creek, which flows into the river just below Oxbow Dam, would be assessed to see if it could host the fish, and then Oregon would press for reintroduction, Otter wrote. “Idaho cannot agree with this approach,” Otter said. “Based on state law and in part on our past experiences with reintroduced species (i.e., wolves), Idaho cannot and will not agree to the reintro-

Relicensing timeline Idaho Power operates three dams in the Hells Canyon area along the Oregon-Idaho border: the Brownlee, Oxbow and Hells Canyon dams. Those three dams generate about two-thirds of Idaho Power’s hydroelectricity each year, and account for 40 percent of its total generation. The company’s license to operate with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission expired in 2005, and since then it’s withdrawn and refiled the application on a year-by-year basis. That provides a new one-year deadline, while its applications for water quality certification are pending with the states of Idaho and Oregon, according to FERC. duction of salmon or steelhead above Hells Canyon Dam.” The House Resources and Conservation Committee has under consideration three bills that were introduced last week and affirm the governor’s position. One, House Bill 169, would amend an existing law and require that the Idaho Legislature approve any attempt to reintroduce species in Idaho by a federal agency or by another state. As currently written, the law refers only to federal agencies. The measures are backed by the Idaho Water Users Association, a group representing irrigators, water districts, private canal companies and other organizations. In a resolution, the association said it opposes any attempt to reintroduce salmon or steelhead above the Hells Canyon complex because it would have “drastic impacts on irrigated agriculture, water supplies and electric power production” in Idaho.

Oregon’s position Oregon articulated its arguments in the dispute in its proposed certification, which was released in December. Under the Endangered Species Act, many species of salmon and steelhead in the Snake River have been listed as endangered or threatened, including spring and summer runs of Chinook salmon, fall runs of Chinook salmon, Snake River sockeye salmon, steelhead and bull trout. Idaho Power does operate a trap at Hells Canyon dam, and then spawns the captured adult fish in hatcheries. Annually, the hatcheries produce about 1 million juvenile fall Chinook salmon, which are dropped into the Snake below Hells Canyon Dam, as well as millions more juvenile spring Chinook and steelhead. But Oregon contends that’s insufficient, and its anglers and fisheries get minimal benefit from the hatchery’s operations. One million adult salmon and steelhead historically reached spawning grounds in upstream Snake River tributaries in Oregon, like the Pine, Owyhee, Malheur, Burnt and Powder River basins, the state said. “Idaho Power’s hatchery mitigation program does not adequately mitigate for lost natural production of anadromous fish and lost harvest opportunity for

Oregon anglers,” the state said in its certification document. “Because the access to the Snake River below Hells Canyon Dam is limited, Oregon anglers have fewer opportunities to harvest Chinook and steelhead adults returning to the Snake River.” The Nez Perce Tribe, ShoshoneBannock Tribes of the Fort Hill Reservation and Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation have supported Oregon’s position and advocate for installing fish passage. The Confederated Tribes have a policy to restore the Columbia River Basin to a point that salmon and steelhead populations reach levels prior to an 1855 treaty with the U.S. government, according to FERC documents. In that treaty, the Umatilla, the Cayuse and the Walla Walla tribes in northeastern Oregon and southeastern Washington ceded more than 6 million acres in exchange for fishing, hunting and other rights. “Construction of the Hells Canyon Complex cut off nearly half of the natural spawning and rearing habitat for salmon and steelhead in the Columbia River Basin,” the tribe said in 2002. “Its ongoing operation continues to detrimentally affect salmon populations and the habitat that remains. Consequently, our Treaty-secured fishing rights, along with our rights to have the graves of our ancestors and other important sites maintained and protected, have been eroded.”

What’s next In November, Idaho Power attempted to break through the impasse. It petitioned FERC to have Oregon’s law thrown out, arguing it should be nullified under the supremacy clause of the U.S. Constitution. In the petition, Idaho Power said it was stuck between conflicting statutes in Oregon and Idaho. “The stakes for Idaho Power are also high,” the petition stated. “Idaho Power is likely to be placed in the impossible position of having to respond to Oregon’s efforts to enforce a state statute that contradicts the provisions of its FERC license, and directly conflicts with Idaho law.” In January, FERC declined the request. In a ruling, FERC said the petition was premature, and the commission lacked the authority to challenge or adjudicate a state’s water rights. “Nor would we have any authority to resolve conflicts between the states’ certifications, if they exist, or conflicts between the states’ certifications and any mandatory fishway prescriptions,” the ruling states. Brad Bowlin, a spokesman for Idaho Power, said the utility filed an appeal of that decision Friday as well as a request for a new hearing. Bowlin said the utility disagrees with Oregon’s using its water quality certification to impose fish passage, but hopes Oregon and Idaho can come to an agreement to resolve the dispute. “What this does, hopefully, is encourage some discussions between the two states,” he said of the legislative proposals in Idaho. “That’s really where the impasse lies. Best-case scenario—the two states could resolve this.” Peter Jensen: pjensen@mtexpress.com

Express Staff Writer

uring a three-hour public meeting Thursday evening in Hailey, Idaho Department of Fish and Game representatives told hunters why they want to raise license costs, explained the benefits and drawbacks of winter feeding of elk and deer, and proposed options for culling elk numbers around the Wood River Valley by increasing hunting opportunities. The meeting format provided ample opportunities for questions from the approximately 50 hunters who attended at the Community Campus. In a handout describing the changes, the department stated that it wants to reduce the cow elk population and reduce impacts to agriculture.

Elk hunts Regional Wildlife Manager Daryl Meints said that since 2008, when elk numbers had dropped below the department’s objectives, the animals have been thriving in the Pioneer Elk Management Zone, which includes the Pioneer Mountains, the White Cloud Mountains and the area east and north of Trail Creek Summit. “There’s probably more elk per square mile there than anywhere else in Idaho,” he said. He said elk numbers in the zone rose from about 6,000 in 2008 to about 10,000 in 2013 to about 12,200 now. That high a population is having too much impact on agriculture, the department has stated. Meints said the department’s objective is to reduce the number of cows from the current 6,700 to about 5,600. It’s proposing two options to do that: Option A would provide additional antlerless elk hunting opportunity through 12 controlled hunts, increasing the number of tags from 1,160 to 2,200. There would also be a new unlimited controlled hunt in Unit 50, east of Trail Creek Summit., from Nov. 15 through Dec. 7. Option B would add a general over-the-counter antlerless hunt from Nov. 10-30 and an extra controlled antlerless hunt in the northern part of the zone with 400 tags from Oct. 1 through Dec. 31. Total controlled-hunt tags would be increased from 1,160 to 1,200. Meints said those options are likely to be modified before one is chosen. The department is seeking public comment on its proposals, with a deadline of Feb. 26. According to the department’s website, all comments received by the deadline will be summarized and presented to the Fish and Game Commission prior to its March 15-16 meeting in Boise,

where big game seasons will be set. Comments can be submitted online by going to the department’s website and scrolling down to “Idaho’s 2017 & 2018 big game season proposals available online.”

License fees The Fish and Game Commission is seeking approval from the Legislature to add a $5 fee to adult resident hunting licenses to help prevent and provide compensation for crop depredation by wildlife and obtain more public-access agreements with landowners. If passed, the fee would be the first increase to the cost of a hunting license since The commission is also proposing that a $2 fee be added to the price of junior and senior licenses and a $10 fee be added to the price of nonresident licenses. A one-year resident adult hunting license now costs $12.75, and a combination hunting and fishing license costs $33.50. Nonresidents pay much more--$154.75 for a one-year hunting license and $240 for a combination hunting and fishing license. Magic Valley Regional Supervisor Toby Boudreau said Thursday that earlier that day, the commission directed staff to develop a proposed bill for consideration by the Legislature. He said the bill will be introduced in the House Resources and Conservation Committee. The department estimates that the proposed fee would generate $2 million annually. Of that, $500,000 would be spent to compensate for crop damage, $500,000 to prevent crop damage from big game herds, such as the stackyard fences built in southern Blaine County last year, and $1 million to improve access to private land. Boudreau said in an interview last month that stackyard fencing, funded by Fish and Game, Blaine County and private landowners, made a huge difference in keeping elk out of trouble. Last winter, about 20 animals were killed by collapsing hay bale stacks in southern Blaine County. On Thursday, Boudreau said the department’s Magic Valley Region, which includes the Wood River Valley, gets about half the department’s funding for buying access easements n private land. Under state law, the department is responsible for paying farmers for damage to standing or stored crops caused by wildlife. Boudreau said the department expects to pay about $680,000 in depredation claims this year. That program is funded by a 75-cent fee attached to deer and elk tags. Some of the approximately 50 hunters who attended the presentation Thursday raised some questions about the pro-

posed fee increases, but others expressed support. “I consider my sportsman’s tag the best deal I’ve ever had,” one hunter said. “I pay less than I do for one day of skiing on Baldy, and I get to hunt all year.” Boudreau said that on an experimental basis for five years, hunters and fishermen who buy their licenses every year will be guaranteed no further price increase during that time. “People who don’t buy their license every year will pay more,” he said. “It’s an experiment—we’ll see how it works.

Emergency feeding Due to this winter’s heavy snow, the department has been feeding hay to about 1,700 elk and special pellets to about 900 deer at a total of 24 sites in southern Blaine County. A department spokesman said last week that the effort is going well. On Thursday, Meints said feeding mule deer is a tradeoff between saving does and losing fawns. He said fawns can’t compete well for food at the feeding stations, and are more likely to starve there than on natural forage on south-facing slopes. He said he estimates that about 20 percent of the does and 80 percent of the fawns in southern Blaine County will die this winter. One member of the audience noted that if south-facing slopes don’t melt soon, without supplemental feeding, 100 percent of the fawns could die. Meints said a fawn survival rate of 60 percent or higher is considered good, while normally at least 90 percent of the does survive. Fortunately, he said, the deer came into winter in a well-nourished condition. “I saw more fat on deer this year than I’ve ever seen,” he said. Meints said he thinks there were more deer in the area than at any other time in the past 20 years. Over the long term, Meints said, deer populations are determined by fawn survival. He said that due to mild winters, numbers have been high for the past five years. “We have five strong age classes out there on the landscape right now,” he said. Meints said that even though mortality will be high among the deer that are wintering in the Wood River Valley, many others have migrated south onto the desert. He said deer tend to follow the same habits of migrating or not that they learned from their mothers. “Mule deer have a lot more site fidelity than elk do,” he said. “Elk are travelers. They’re a lot tougher and have higher survival rates. You don’t have anywhere near the fluctuation in calves as you do in fawns.”

Weekend Baldy closes Monday afternoon Continued from Page 1 with locals and visitors,” Kernow said. “We were very happy.” Jim Funk, owner of Despo’s restaurant in Ketchum, said, “Washington’s birthday was great, even better than last year.” Funk said business was down during the first two weeks in February, compared to last year. He said other downtown Ketchum businesses spoke of similar drops, due to extreme winter weather. “We need snow, but not too much. We don’t need so much that it brings the town to a standstill,” he said. On Monday, a tree fell across the 42nd Street run on Baldy and the gondola was temporarily closed due to brushes with tree branches covered in heavy snow. “Mountain Operations cleared the snow and removed some trees without any impact on the lift,” Lusk said. Marketing Manager Mike Fitzpatrick said the whole mountain was closed at 1:25 p.m.

Monday due to heavy snowfall and high wind. At about 2 p.m., Sun Valley was reporting wind gusts of 35-57 mph at the top of the mountain. The resort also reported that 23 inches of snow had fallen on the mountain in the past 48 hours. By Tuesday morning, an additional 11 inches of snow had fallen on Baldy. High winds continued to hamper mountain operations, with only runs on lower Warm Springs and the Greyhawk chairlift open. By Tuesday afternoon, Lookout Express, the gondola and the Challenger lifts were in operation. The bowls remained closed for avalanche control, with avalanche danger rated as “high.” The Ketchum Ranger District office on Sun Valley Road measured 12 inches of snowfall between Friday and Tuesday afternoon.

Dozens of people stopped along state Highway 75 on Sunday to help dig out a car and create a path through avalanche debris. The lodged car was not damaged and the woman and dog inside were not injured and were on their way back home within two hours.

Avalanche Wania: Avalanche incident is a lesson to always have a shovel Continued from Page1 a slide trapping a vehicle on the road, people should not exit their own vehicles to help. “Motorists out of their vehicles are much more likely to be killed by a second avalanche than if they remain in their vehicles,” the department states on its website. That danger didn’t deter motorists Sunday, however. Wania said people were joking, laughing and telling stories of avalanches past as they dug through the slide. She said in about an hour and a half, her car

was free. She didn’t end up heading the rest of the way to Galena, instead turning home. Her car isn’t too worse for wear, she said, perhaps needing a wheel alignment. “This is a little heads up,” she said. “Everyone should have a shovel in their car in the wintertime because you never know what’s going to happen.” Kristen Riemann’s video and pictures of the avalanche-clearing effort can be found on the Mountain Express’ Facebook page.

County handles more juvenile offenders Idaho Department of Juvenile Corrections presents annual report “That tells us that probation officers are working with kids, getting them help, and moving them along.” Renee Waite

Idaho Department of Juvenile Corrections

B y M A D E LY N B E C K Express Staff Writer

Juvenile corrections officials presented a 2016 report to the Blaine County commissioners Tuesday, outlining trends within the county, region and state. Among the many trends and data points discussed was the county’s spike in community service hours performed by juveniles within the corrections system, from about 400 in 2015 to more than 1,000 in 2016. That corresponded with an increase in juvenile intakes and releases from the county detention system, from 84 intakes and 56 releases in 2015 to 113 intakes and 80 releases in 2016. “That tells us that probation officers are working with kids, getting them help, and moving them along,” Renee Waite, District 5 liaison for the state Juvenile Justice Council, said at the county meeting Tuesday. Meanwhile, statewide, the number of community service hours being performed is decreasing, from about 100,000 in 2015 to 90,000 in 2016. Back in 2012, the state recorded about 140,600 hours. Meanwhile, the state’s number of intakes and releases both decreased.

Another major difference between state and county juvenile detention data for 2016 is the number of juvenile status offenses, which are age-based infractions. About 86 percent of the county offenses were misdemeanors while about 11 percent were felony offenses and 3 percent were status offenses. The state shows 67 percent misdemeanor offenses, 15 percent felony offenses and a full 18 percent status offenses. Another statistic recorded in the annual data sets was the recidivism rate, which is the rate at which juveniles reoffend. In this, the county and state percentages are comparable at 27 percent and 26 percent, respectively. However, county Chief Probation Officer Teresa Espedal said the state’s juvenile justice departments are revising how they calculate those rates to give a better idea of how the system can reduce them. She said they are working to find a way to more specifically identify which programs juveniles were in before they reoffended and what type of offenses the reoffenders originally made. “That is way more helpful information than just numbers,” Espedal said. In closing, County Commissioner Larry Schoen reiterated a point he had made during a juvenile justice report earlier this year: More money should be spent on keeping track of what is working and what isn’t working within the juvenile justice system. Overall, Waite said, Blaine County has a significant amount of resources for juvenile offenders, which is why only about one or two juveniles from the county are ever placed under state facilities’ care.

Middle and high school robotics teams from around the state will come to Hailey this Friday, challenging students and their robots to compete for a shot at the worldwide competition. Wood River High School robotics coach Kevin Lupton said he expects 36 Idaho teams from more than a dozen school districts to converge on the Community Campus this week, pitting robots and teams against one another to complete a task formed by VEX Robotics, which changes every year. VEX states on its website that it produces components for robots and outlines game rules for each year with the effort of helping students “immerse themselves in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) through the fun of building robots.” “The creativity allowed within [the competition] is massive,” Lupton said. “Every robot is different.” This year, VEX Robotics competition is called “Starstruck.” It pits two teams’ robots against two other teams’ robots to throw soft, orange cube-like objects and jack-like yellow “stars” over a 2-foot fence between the groups. At the end, robots can gain extra points for hanging off either low portions or high portions of the fence. Middle and high school students have been working in class and in an after-school club all year to build and fine-tune their bots. Lupton said students often improve the robots after each competition, adding that the competitions can be exhausting. He said teams usually compete in 80 matches a day. Blaine County’s “home teams” all fall under the same name: Blaine County Bots. The BCB program is made up of 24 Wood River High School students and 30 Wood River Middle School students. The high school program is the oldest in the state at eight years old, while the eighth-grade program has been running for four years. Both teams have made it to world competitions, facing other states as well as other countries. Middle school coach Jeremy Silvis said a new sixth- and seventh-grade program was formed just this year, bridging a gap between the elementary robotics students and eighth-graders.

Students have been practicing for months to hone their robots in to star-and-orange-cube-throwing machines. Pictured here are Wood River Middle School students having a friendly competition in December after a home tournament was canceled. From left are Cameron Maxwell, Jens Blackman, Carter Gerringa and Milton Torres. Those elementary BCBs are not to be left out, now in their second year in a similar program. Krista Jones, the Bellevue Elementary robotics coach, said three elementary schools—Bellevue, Hemingway and Alturas—participate in robotics programs. This year, she said, the Bellevue and Hemingway teams grouped together to form a 16-student group that won the Robotic Performance Award and Grand Champion second place at the end of January. High school coach Lupton said that from elementary to seniors in high school, it’s a great hands-on learning experience, which is why he started Idaho’s first robotics program eight years ago. He said he taught drafting then, but he wanted a more “kinesthetic” activity to engage students: something he found in robots. Going into the state competition, Lupton said he feels confident in his teams. It’s something he’s said since his four-student team took a robot named “The Beast” to the robotics world championships in summer 2010. So far, he’s been right. “The kids who’ve earned the opportunity to compete at this event are the top teams in the state, so it should be an exciting day,” he said in a news release. “We invite the community to come out to watch and support our teams.” The Idaho state VEX State Championships are scheduled to be held at the Community Campus this Friday, Feb. 24, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Whoever wins the state competition will then move onto the Robotics World Championship in Louisville, Ky.

Sharing More Than Hearts The 15th annual Share Your Heart Ball was a complete success, according to Camp Rainbow Gold Executive Director Elizabeth Lizberg. She said more than 400 people attended the event on Saturday, which raised $440,000 through ticket sales, auction items and donations. While that doesn’t account for the expenses put into the event, she said, it will certainly help bring a lot of children to camp. “All of these funds are going towards our programs,” she said, noting that it will support camp this year and not the capital campaign for new buildings or property. “This truly was about getting kids to camp this summer,” she said. “We will no doubt have another great year of programs because of it, and we just want to say thank you.” Pictured here are Lizberg, left, and longtime camp supporter Kris Cronin, right, during Saturday’s event.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Get Caught Floating Without Flood Insurance!

While battling snow, BCRD eyes pool renovations B y M A D E LY N B E C K Express Staff Writer

This seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s snowy weather is keeping the Blaine County Recreation District busy maintaining trails, but board members and staff are already planning for pool season. Recreation District board members reviewed the aquatic centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s renovation progress and started working toward a full pool renovation during a meeting Friday. While the pool-house renovation is underway, with general internal demolition already finished, the pool overhaul is a ways off. Young Construction was able to start work late last month under the instruction to finish the centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overhaul by the start of pool season in June. While this is a fast turnaround, construction company owner Dan Young said the renovation is on schedule. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everythingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone well and the project is moving along,â&#x20AC;? Young said. Young showed board members and staff around the gutted building Friday, highlighting where his crew had ripped out walls and group shower areas and how he planned to build up the new space. The estimated cost of the project is $480,000, well beyond the originally expected $250,000 to $300,000. The project will be one of a few funding challenges that the Recreation District will face this fiscal year, according to Executive Director Jim Keating. He said that with the amount of snowfall, the district will likely have to spend more on trail grooming to keep up operations until the snow melts sometime this summer. While board members and staff discussed costs to be incurred, they also made preliminary plans for a full pool renovation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going after it,â&#x20AC;? Keating said. Keating said he and Recreation Director Dave Keir conducted interviews with three specialty pool construction companies, and suggested that the district board move forward in discussions with one of them. Board members agreed with staff that Water Technologies Inc. would be a good fit, noting the company presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s familiarity with the area and the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s past work on similar projects. Keating said the next step will be for the district to ask Water Technologies for conceptual and schematic designs before heading forward with pool renovation plans, which will be costly. He said he hopes the pool project can be done outside the aquatic centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s usual summer calendar, but that could be difficult because the pool is outdoors. He said the physical pool renovations wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t start moving forward for at least a year, and probably later, as the district talks with the community about its plans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll work on getting a design that meets the needs of the community. Then weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll look at costs,â&#x20AC;? he said. Keating said all these renovations are part of a master plan to tie the entire area together, including the park around the aquatic center and the historic barn nearby.

avings and states’ rights are pillars of conservative thought, except when some states try to promote saving for retirement. In that instance, Republicans in Congress seem to think they know best. The average American between the ages of 55 and 64, according to the Government Accountability Office in 2015, has saved only enough to provide a monthly retirement income slightly over $300. Corporate pension plans began to disappear in the 1970s. Tax-deferred Individual Retirement Accounts were created in 1974 as an incentive to encourage people to save for retirement. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out quite that way. Kids to raise, mortgages to pay and limited prospects for regular salary increases left good intentions about saving unrealized. Managing investments proved too daunting for most people as well. California, Oregon and Illinois have tried

A five-day power outage at Jackson Hole’s Teton Village should make opponents of a second power line in the Wood River Valley rethink their position. High winds in the largest winter storm since 1986 snapped 17 steel power poles on the single transmission line serving the resort’s ski lifts, eight base hotels and hundreds of homes. Four thousand residents were left in the dark. According to the Jackson Hole News and Guide, early estimates are that the outage cost the resort area upwards of $5 million and deprived the state of Wyoming of up to $500,000 in tax revenue. While the Sun Valley area attracts fewer skiers than Jackson, a similar power outage would be a devastating blow to a community that previously sustained losses associated with two major wildfires in the busiest summer month of August. A second, taller power line running up the center of the Wood River Valley will not be pretty, but it would drastically reduce the odds of a devastating outage like the one in Teton Village.

The alternative proposed by the city of Ketchum, local power generation served up on existing city power lines, may have less visual impact. However, it would require an unknown number of years of planning and siting, and unknown amounts of investment for systems that major utilities have not yet embraced. Such systems can include dieselpowered generators or unproven battery storage systems for solar or wind power. In theory, the alternatives are very appeal-

ing. However, Idaho Power is not a corporation inclined to put itself on the cutting edge of major changes in power-generation or delivery systems. This is still Idaho, after all. Ketchum, which has intervened in the Idaho Public Utility Commission’s consideration of the power lines, is unlikely to be able to fund or deliver its own system any time soon. If the Wood River Valley is to have a backup power line, practicality will have to prevail over aesthetics.

ton, D.C., remains alive and well. The financial industry has opposed the plans at the state and federal level, claiming unfair government competition. That is a smokescreen laid down to cover investment firms’ interest in holding on to their profitable individual investors. Harder to explain is how this vote jibes with Republican orthodoxy concerning small government and protecting states’ rights. These plans involve no government funding and only minimal regulation and paperwork, and apply only to employees of companies within a given state’s borders. They are the definition of a state’s right to handle its own concerns and to do so with minimal government involvement. The fate of these regulations now rests with the Senate. Senators should climb out of the swamp, stand up for individual states and vote for savers over lobbyists. Urging your senators to do so is surely worth a phone call.

to create at least a partial answer to the growing crisis of underfunded retirement accounts for future retirees. They would require employees of private companies that do not provide pensions or other retirement plans to put up to 5 percent of their wages into statewide investment pools that would grow over time and be available at retirement. Employees would have to opt out rather than opt in. The states would face no fiscal impact because money would come from each saver. Bookkeeping requirements would be minimal for employers. The Obama administration’s Labor Department had given the green light to the states for these innovative plans. Last week, all but three Republicans and one Texas Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives voted to kill them instead. The vote reflected nothing about individual constituents and everything about the powerful financial lobby. It was a clear demonstration that the special interest swamp in Washing-

magine it had been a man named Muhammad who walked into an elementary school in Connecticut and murdered 20 children and six of their teachers or opened fire in a Colorado movie theater, killing 12 people and wounding 70 others. Or that this Muhammad and a friend had attacked Columbine High School, or gotten into an armed standoff with federal officials, or assassinated two Las Vegas police officers eating lunch, or murdered nine people in a Charleston church, or shot up a Planned Parenthood facility. Would we have placed all such incidents under one umbrella? Under those circumstances, maybe that would have been warranted. But that’s not what we are facing. And yet, some Republican Party leaders are acting as though we are, because, to them, a white The Charlotte Observer published this editorial on Feb. 13.

American randomly shooting up a mall or school feels like less of a threat, even though that has been more commonplace than a foreigner infiltrating the U.S. and causing great harm. A misplaced fear of Muslim-inspired terrorism has convinced the Trump administration to focus even more on what it calls “radical Islamic extremism,” and was illustrated recently when Rep. Sean Duffy, R-Wisc., declared that fighting Muslim-related terror requires the most urgency. (Never mind that a few years ago, a white supremacist killed six people in a Sikh Temple in Duffy’s home state.) The FBI has nabbed more anti-immigrant American citizens plotting violent attacks on Muslims within the U.S. than it has refugees in the past few years, according to data compiled by the Lawfareblog.com. The New American Foundation found that about half those charged since the 9/11 attacks with true terrorrelated activities have been U.S.-born citizens. Charles Kurzman, who teaches sociology at the University of North Carolina at Cha-

pel Hill, and David Schanzer, director of the Triangle Center on Terrorism and Homeland Security at Duke University, say 74 percent of the law enforcement agencies they surveyed listed antigovernment extremism as one of the top three terror threats in their jurisdictions— compared with only 39 percent who felt the same about al-Qaida and like groups. And with good reason: An average of nine American Muslims per year have been involved in terror plots since 9/11, in contrast to the 337 per year by right-wing extremists. By Kurzman’s calculations, there was only a one in 6 million chance in 2016 of an American being killed by a Muslim terrorist. Still, brownand olive-skin terror convinces us to launch wars in the Middle East. Homegrown terror perpetrated by white Americans doesn’t even prompt a tweak in background check laws. Violent Muslims are not lurking behind every bush. The longer we act as though they are, the easier it will be for leaders to prey upon our fears to enact unwise policies that leave us vulnerable in ways we don’t even realize.

Ketchum Visitors Center sale is logical By TIM EAGAN I am writing to respond to the editorial “Ain’t broke, why sell?” in the Jan. 25 Idaho Mountain Express. Sometime within the next few months, my four-year stint as Ketchum Urban Renewal Agency commissioner will end. It has been my privilege to serve the mayor, City Council and good citizens of Ketchum. Thank you for that honor. I would like to say that I know enough to be dangerous when it comes to urban renewal agencies. That being said, apparently I know more than the Mountain Express. I am not saying this to be off-putting or condescending, I am saying it in the hopes that the record can be set straight in this matter. The KURA enabling legislation calls for all redevelopment activities in the Revenue Allocation Area to cease in 2030. Our executive director and counsel for the KURA have both advised that they would be most comfortable with a “windup” of all financial obligations somewhere in the 2025 timeframe. That’s right around the corner when dealing with legislative bodies of this ilk. That means that any outstanding bonds must be paid in full by that time as well as any KURA/developer agreements. The Revenue Allocation Area will cease to exist after 2030. On that “sunset” date, the tax increment dollars that have been going to fund the operations, acquisitions and debt service of the KURA will go back to the city of Ketchum, Blaine County and other taxing districts. That also means that any KURA-owned real estate should be liquidated well before that time. Real estatte is, by definition, a very ill-liquid asset. It is even more ill-liquid when owned by a governmental entity, including urban renewal agencies. Governments cannot just put a property on the market for sale. They must go through a process of vetting and approval before any sale can take place. Prior to 2007, real estate prices in the Wood River Valley had been on a nearly 10 percent per annum increase. The recession changed all that. No one with any familiarity with the ups and downs of resort real estate would argue after that experience that we are immune to that volatility. It can happen again. The question before the KURA is, in light of the sunsetting of the KURA, is this a more opportune time to liquidate the Visitors Center asset as opposed to some date down the road? My own personal and professional opinion is that with the opening of the Limelight Hotel and the imminent opening of the Hotel Ketchum in 2019, the value of this asset is probably as close to its peak as it may ever get. Others can and will argue to the contrary, but why gamble on the “if/ come” when current values are as high as they have been historically? More importantly, the KURA is not set up to manage commercial real estate on a long-term basis. The Visitors Center takes valuable staff time that should properly be dedicated to the mission of the KURA, mainly infrastructure, affordable housing and business development, to name just a few. In fact, for the KURA, the Visitors Center is a cash “black hole.” We lose money every year. That trajectory will continue. In fact, owning the Visitors Center is nowhere to be found in the KURA mission statement nor in its enabling legislation. Moreover, the dollars to be realized from a sale of the Visitors Center could be used toward paying off housing obligation money owed to the city of Ketchum. Your elected representatives, the mayor and City Council will be able to apply those dollars to the affordable housing shortfall so evident throughout Ketchum and environs. Urban renewal agencies are not set up to own real estate indefinitely; we improve it, sell it and move on. Our sweet spot for effectiveness is infrastructure (sidewalks, curb, gutters, etc.). Not very glamorous, but it’s why we exist in large measure. Your editorial also argues that by a sale of the Visitors Center, the KURA will lose its ability to control the building. I hate to break it to you, but we never had any control to begin with! The leases are what control the Visitors Center, not the KURA. We manage the building to conform to the terms and conditions of the leases in place. When the Visitors Center is sold, the new owner will be bound by the same lease covenants. That is a legal fact. Ketchum Town Square has become exactly what prior mayors and City Councils envisioned—a hub of activity and the meeting place for all things “Ketchum.” The premise of your argument for keeping the status quo is that cities or local governments are better at creating the commercial energy needed for such community spaces. I would argue the exact opposite—they are the least qualified. In the case of the Visitors Center, it is composed of two merchants and a kiosk for Visit Sun Valley. I would suggest that any redevelopment of the Visitors Center building would, at a minimum, offer at least four to five vibrant and dynamic new retail merchants on the ground floor and offices and/or residential units on the second and third floors. This is exactly the type of retail, live/work, mixed-use building that our downtown—any downtown, for that matter—requires to attract new businesses and employees. You posit that all that makes the Visitors Center “a cozy refuge, a community living room where people meet” would somehow be eliminated by a prospective new owner. Last I checked, developers are not stupid. The same components present in the existing Visitors Center will no doubt be duplicated by any savvy developer. To say nothing of the role of the Planning and Zoning Commission. It defies logic to think that those appointed to safeguard the commercial vitality of Town Square would not look at any proposed building with a critical eye toward preserving the very vitality you refer to in your editorial. I have the utmost confidence that Town Square would be the beneficiary of the P&Z’s steady hand in any redevelopment proposal. So to the point of your editorial, “Ain’t broke, why sell?”, I guess if your definition of not being broken is defined as a continued money-loser for the KURA, a waste of valuable staff time, tax increment dollars tied up in an asset that could be better spent building affordable housing, an asset that will be sold within the next seven years due to URA sunset requirements and no faith in the private sector to do something better than the public sector, then, I guess you’re right—it’s not broken!

lion. The bill also removed the lowest bracket. The top bracket starts at $10,905 adjusted gross income. Often, tax cuts spur economic growth, which in turn increases taxes paid into state coffers.

Hailey, too, should be a welcoming city

Raise the minimum wage in Idaho

I am writing in response to the article on Feb. 10 about Ketchum moving toward adopting a welcoming city resolution (“Immigration order spurs debate over sanctuary cities”). I personally applaud Mayor Nina Jonas for her efforts. However, as a resident of Hailey, I am incredibly disappointed at Hailey Mayor Fritz Haemmerle’s response that he didn’t want our immigrant residents to feel welcome in our community for fear of jeopardizing federal funding. I’m glad to know where the mayor’s priorities lie, which appears to be federal funds for sidewalks and bike lanes. This type of resolution would be a positive gesture during this time of uncertainty for many of our immigrant population. It would show that they are a vital part of our community and economy and help them to feel welcome in their community. It has nothing to do with the U.S. Constitution, and Mayor Haemmerle knows that. Good thing all the businesses that close each year in Hailey (28 in 2016 and 48 in 2015) will have nice sidewalks thanks those federal funds. Isn’t it time that we focus on enhancing the vibrancy of our community by working together to create more new businesses, promote existing local businesses and provide affordable housing and better-paying jobs? It is my belief that passing a welcoming city resolution would be a good step in this direction. If you agree, please let Mayor Haemmerle know. Noel Jensen

Despite a 2013 study by United Way that found that the living wage for an Idaho adult to cover the basics is $8.33 an hour, there are about 20,000 Idahoans making the $7.25 minimum wage. As of Jan. 1, 2017, 29 states plus Washington, D.C., have a minimum wage higher than the federal minimum wage. Idaho legislators have an opportunity to pass House Bill 72. Introduced by Rep. Mat Erpelding and co-sponsored by six senators and 10 representatives, HB 72 aims to increase the minimum wage over the course of three years. By July 1, 2019, the minimum wage would be $12 per hour and $7.35 per hour for tipped employees. For a family of four, the living wage to cover only the basics is $23.09 per hour. With the passage of HB 72, two adults earning the proposed $12 per hour would be able to earn just enough to cover the cost of living. In the same study, it was found that about 22 percent of Idaho households make more than the federal poverty level but still not enough to cover the basic cost of living. These same Idahoans also often fall into the health insurance gap. The Legislature passed a law last year that bans local communities from raising their own minimum wages. Our legislators have the power and responsibility to help those Idahoans who have been left behind. By contacting your legislators, you can let them know that you support this piece of legislation, which will make Idaho families stronger. Judy Foster

Base education funds on facts Rep. Steve Miller believes a better educated citizenry is critical to our state, nation and economy and supports Gov. Butch Otter’s plan to increase Idaho’s education budget by $110 million. Here are a few facts on Miller’s record. In 2016, Miller voted to fund the teacher career ladder and the K-3 literacy program. He advocated for more comprehensive data and collaboration in formulating an effective approach to improving reading abilities and comprehension skills. He’s a hands-on guy and searches out the facts when he looks for ways to direct available funds. That’s the key to improving education in Idaho. The current Idaho education budget is 63 percent of the general fund budget. The governor’s revised education budget of $1.7 billion is an increase of 6.9 percent, or $110 million. To me that says Idaho is serious about improving education in Idaho. Just pouring more money into the budget is not efficient or wise when you have a finite number of dollars. House Bill 67 lowered individual and corporate income tax from 7.4 percent to 7.2 percent, which will reduce revenue by about $54 mil-

Hold hearing on climate change To the House Environment, Energy and Technology chairman: Climate change needs a hearing. Peerreviewed papers by climate scientists all over the world have proven that the science is there and true. The UN, NASA and NOAA would not submit scientific proof just for fun. I understand if your experience in life has not expanded to our changing environment, but open your mind and at least have a hearing so you can look at the science and see it for yourself. This is an important issue—it is a subject that all legislators should look at as it affects the health, safety and welfare of the public. Is that not why you became a person who represents the public, is that not why you became a representative to serve the people of your district? Is this not why people voted for you to represent them on issues that affect their lives? Please allow this subject to be heard. Do not deny Rep. Rubel a hearing. Claudia Haynes Nampa, Idaho

Obituaries Christopher Anthony Pilaro Christopher Anthony Pilaro—father, friend, filmmaker, philanthropist and fierce independent spirit—died early Thursday morning Feb. 16, 2017, on his own terms at his home in Hailey, Idaho. He was 44. Chris Pilaro was born in Paris, France, on July 6, 1972, and lived in Hong Kong; Southhampton, N.Y.; Prescott, Ariz.; Crested Butte and Ridgeway, Colo.; and Oakland, Calif., before settling in the Wood River Valley in June 2002. For several years, he worked as a photographer for the Idaho Mountain Express and Sun Valley Guide. His independence and clarity of spirit showed from an early age. He was the boy who declared his deep love for the plants and flowers in his school’s garden, the teenager who used an alias (Chris Garcia) at his summer job so co-workers wouldn’t know he was the boss’s son, and a man whose generosity impacted hundreds of lives. Chris always liked a physical challenge. In high school at Choate Rosemary Hall, he was a varsity lacrosse goalie and champion wrestler. At Prescott College, he trekked 30 days in Alaska's St. Elias Mountains and summitted Mount Logan (19,551 feet), the largest mountain massif in the world and Canada's highest peak. (The professor who joined him said he learned more from Chris in that month than he had taught him in three years of class.)

Wednesday, February 22, 2017

He was an expert alpine skier, snowboarder, surfer, telemark skier, climber and skateboarder. This “Renaissance man,” as Hailey friend Joe St. Onge calls him, was passionate about sharing the joys and teaching the skills of adventure. As an Outward Bound mountaineering and rock-climbing instructor, he led dozens of trips around the West with a focus on at-risk youth. In 1999, he traveled to Glacier Bay with friend and valley resident Geoff Gardner to climb Mount Fairweather, one of the highest peaks in Alaska’s coastal range. Following a seven-day approach by kayak, they hauled climbing gear by ski-sled for two weeks up vast glaciers. They reached the summit, descended by skis and dodged at least one grizzly on the rocky waterfront. But this mountain man was also a guide through the interior landscapes of compassion and love. He was a curious explorer of the human condition, eager to discuss anything life brings our way. Selfless friendship was his practice. What he had, he gave, and what he knew, he shared. Chris was the friend you turned to, the one who could talk easily about any difficult thing. He also believed in challenging the system. Through his work on several award-winning documentary films, Chris was a champion of the underdog and an advocate against injustice. While still a student at Prescott, he co-produced “Children in America’s Schools with Bill Moyers” (PBS 1996), an exposé on inequalities in the school system. “Blue Vinyl” (HBO 2002) studied the effects of toxic chemicals in home construction and was a

Sundance Film Festival award-winner. In 2007, “Everything’s Cool,” also a Sundance winner, studied the politics of climate change. Most recently, Chris was director and co-producer of “The Greater Good” (2011 Current TV), an investigation of one of the most contentious public health issues in America—vaccine safety. The film featured children injured by vaccine side effects and challenged viewers to see complexity and nuance in an issue typically presented in polarized political hype. Chris believed deeply in the power of education. He served for 20 years as chair of the National Selection Committee for the Ron Brown Scholar Program, which has provided college grants to nearly 400 African-American high school students from around the country. Chris interviewed hundreds of applicants, remained in close contact with many of the young scholars and in 2006 co-produced a book about their stories, “I Have Risen.” Chris worked for education in his own community as well. He and his former wife, Phoebe Pilaro, helped establish Hailey’s Syringa Mountain School in 2014. They also donated land and built Jimmy’s Garden, a children’s park named after the former property owner. Though he never broadcast or boasted, Chris also helped several individual students pursue their educations. He applied himself to these causes with serious intent, but Chris never fell into the trap of taking himself too seriously. More comfortable in a wild costume than a suit, he preferred silly over serious. Following his 2012 diagnosis with a rare cancer, he elevated his favorite motto—”It’s only weird if you make it weird”—into a life philosophy. In 2015, he recruited friends to climb and ski Terminal Cancer Couloir in northern Nevada’s Ruby Mountains. “I’ve got terminal cancer,” he said. “Let’s go ski it.” That September on the Main Salm-

NOW OPEN!

on River, he may not have been the first person to run the Class IV Vinegar rapids on a stand-up paddle board, but he was certainly the first to do it wearing a dress. When friends threw a party to celebrate his life last fall, Chris showed up dressed as an angel (with long blonde hair). Throughout his life, Chris lived as if there was no guarantee of tomorrow. He was devoted to his two sons. He loved teaching them how to master the Hailey skatepark, ski on Baldy, fly-fish on the Big Wood, mountain bike out Croy Canyon and travel the world. The way Chris lived—compassionate, open and fearless—is also the way he chose to die. When friends called to check in on him as his health declined, he only wanted to talk about their lives. In his final days, the energy that he spent a lifetime sending into the world circled back and surrounded him. Despite our loss, it was not a tragic ending, but a peaceful letting go in the company of loved ones from near and far. Even after death, he taught us new ways to think about life. As Chris often signed off, he shared peace, love, happiness and healing. He is survived by his sons, Logan Fischer Pilaro, 12, and Zeppelin Anthony Pilaro, 9, of Hailey, former wife, Phoebe Izard Pilaro, and rescue dog Shonipup, 13, of Hailey; mother, Linda Pilaro of New York City, and father, Tony Pilaro, of Seoul, Korea; and brother, Andrew, and sister-in-law, Fairley, and nephews, Keeling, 18, Chris, 16, Finn, 16, and Boo, 16, Pilaro of Southhampton, N.Y. A memorial service will take place after the snow melts at Galena Lodge. “Flame” By Rayne Baker, sixth grade, Syringa Mountain School Life is like a flame. It can be wild or tame As its light dances across the room. You watch as a storm draws near That could lead to certain doom Because even the brightest and strongest Flames can be snuffed out with The quicker swipe of the North Wind on that cold winter night. In dedication to Chris Palarogh [sic]

Ralph Clarence Cisco passed away peacefully on Jan. 24, 2017, just a few weeks after celebrating his 88th birthday. Born in La Mesa, Calif., on Jan. 7, 1929, he was the youngest of three sons born to Jack and Gertrude Mae Cisco. The family operated a dairy near Del Mar, and Ralph grew up helping the family run the dairy, enjoying the Pacific Ocean and working with his father in an excavation business. He graduated from Grosmont High School in 1947. Soon after, he moved to Colorado, where he worked for his uncles as a wrangler and hunting guide on their dude ranch at Woods Lake high in the Rockies. He loved working with horses and felt at home in the mountains. He tried his hand at rodeo, riding saddle bronc and bareback for a time. Ralph was introduced to skiing near Aspen—before it was a resort. For the next 50 years, he would enjoy this passion, finding both peace and excitement while gliding over the snow. He skied at more than a dozen ski areas throughout the mountain West. During the Korean War, Ralph served in the Army and was stationed at the Tooele Army Depot. He worked as a cook, and sliced his finger severely one day preparing meals. The lovely nurse who treated him that day would become his wife a short time later. Ralph and Barbara Jean Pendleton were married on Feb.

2, 1952. They were together constantly for 65 years until Ralph’s passing. Their only son, Gregory Ralph, was born in Salt Lake on Dec. 7, 1952. After an honorable discharge from the Army, the young family split their time between San Diego and the dude ranch in Colorado. Ralph decided to attend college and pursue a degree in forestry. This career would enable him to enjoy the outdoors and work with people—his two passions in life. Thanks to the GI bill, use of Barbara’s parents’ house in Logan and working three side jobs, Ralph graduated from Utah State University in 1959 with a degree in forestry. Ralph began his career with the U.S. Forest Service in Ogden, Utah. Soon, he transferred to the Sawtooth Valley, Idaho, where he would work for 10 years as district ranger. Days at the Fourth of July Creek Ranger Station included overseeing the staff, tending to horses and mules and checking up on various loggers, miners, ranchers, tourists and stock-grazing allotments. Ralph was a natural communicator and was always at ease visiting with the Basque sheep herders even though he did not speak Spanish. He loved to the eat lamb chops, eggs and big bread served by the herders from their sheep wagons. He hosted many pack trips and “show-me” trips with government officials, including chief of the Forest Service, congressional delegates and secretary of agriculture. Eventually, it was determined a national park would not be established in the Sawtooths. In 1972, the Sawtooth National Recreation Area was created, thanks in many ways to Ralph’s hard work and dedication. Weekends in the Sawtooth Valley saw Ralph, Barbara and Greg hiking and fishing in the Sawtooth and White Cloud mountains. Ralph enjoyed being camp cook. His legendary cowboy coffee and Dutch-oven chicken recipes, along with a love of cooking over a fire, are still being enjoyed by his descendants to this day. He was an avid hunter and fisherman. Most of all, he always enjoyed meeting people, telling stories and helping everyone with their needs and experiences. After leaving the Sawtooth Valley, Ralph worked several administrative jobs on the Fishlake and Toiyabe national forests. He next transferred back to San Diego as supervisor of the Cleveland National Forest. His office was on the fifth floor of the Federal Building—a far cry from the saddle and his beloved horse, Skipper, back in the mountains of Idaho. He embraced the challenge of adapting to the “new” Forest Service— one more focused on political correctness than on multiple use of natural resources. He welcomed the challenge of dealing with various political entities such as Orange and San Diego County commissioners, the Sierra Club and so many people. He later transferred to Lake Tahoe to serve as supervisor. He really enjoyed getting to know and work with the owner and management of Heavenly Valley Ski Area. His 30-year career with the U.S. Forest Service would close with his retirement in 1987. After retiring, Ralph and Barbara returned to the Wood River Valley and built a beautiful log home. This home provided a base for their many friends and family members to visit and enjoy various outdoor activities, including skiing, fishing, horseback riding and home-cooked meals. Ralph soon accepted a job as chairman of the Blaine County Planning and Zoning Commission to oversee development in the county. This demanding job required all of Ralph’s best abilities in dealing with people while looking out for the public’s best interest. He dealt with developers, real estate agents, property owners and county commissioners. In this role, he won both praise and criticism. Given See obituaries, next page

his ability to see both sides of any issue, he would become known as Reasonable Ralph. Due to the pressure and rigors of his job in Blaine County, Ralph again retired. He and Barbara moved to the Bitterroot Valley near Darby, Mont. Once again, back in the mountains, they would host friends and families enjoying more of the outdoors. Eventually growing tired of winter in the mountains, they moved to Hagerman, Idaho. They acquired a lovely home with a waterfall on Riley Creek and a boat dock in their backyard. While in Hagerman, Ralph served as president of the Hagerman Valley Historical Society. Barbara still lives in this home. Once asked about his greatest accomplishment, he responded “the number of people I have helped develop to their fullest potential.” When asked what he would have done differently, he quoted his old friend Sandy Brooks, a packer from the Sawtooth Valley, of whom Ralph had asked the same question: “Not a damn thing”! He was a kind, gentle man who loved a good story and enhanced the lives of everyone he met. Ralph was preceded in death by his parents and brothers, Jim and Chuck. He is survived by his loving wife, Barbara; son, Greg (Moira); grandsons, Christian (Kathy) and Aaron (Katie) and two great-granddaughters, Kaycee and Claire (Aaron and Katie). He was laid to rest in Logan, Utah, near members of Barbara’s ancestral family. A celebration of Ralph’s life will be held in Hagerman in the spring. In lieu of flowers, donations in his name can be made to the Hagerman Valley Historical Society, Box 86, Hagerman, ID 83332 or www.hagermanmuseum.com.

Paul Raczka, Pii takit si pimi (Spotted Eagle) Paul M. Raczka, Pii takit si pimi (Spotted Eagle), also known as Api si pis to (White Owl), 74, passed away suddenly on Sunday, Feb. 12, 2017, in Choteau, Mont., at the Medical Center, with his wife, Albertine Crow Shoe, at his side. Paul was born on Dec. 29, 1942, to Eugene and Irene Raczka in Buffalo, N.Y. Paul was a known historian, a Blackfoot Piikani knowledge leader and ceremonialist. In 1963, Paul enlisted in the Army, joining the Special Forces 101st Airborne Unit, and serving through 1966. He then went on to the University of New Mexico, where he started “The Singing Wire—Ripples Through Life” on the KUMN radio station. In 1972, he left New Mexico and moved to Alberta, Canada, with his previous wife, Elaine, and two young daughters, Jennifer and Denise. He was adopted by Laura Crow Shoe Buffalo, and Ed and Ruth Little Bear. Paul was one of the people instrumental in reviving the All Brave Dog Society, as well as the Blackfoot ceremonies on the Piikani Nation. In 1977, he was transferred into the All Brave Dog Society, where he was transferred the Bear Dog Bundle. Over the years, Paul held many bundles and obtained numerous transferred rites, and he was a current Beaver Bundle owner. Paul was a Piikani at heart; his true passion was Niitsitapiipatapiisiin Blackfoot Ways of life from ceremony, song and spirituality. Paul was committed to helping the younger generation by teaching them sacred cultural protocols. His heart has been with the Piikani peoples, elders, clans, sacred societies and his holy children. He is an acknowledged traditional leader. He was a keeper of sacred songs from past ceremonialists and received many cultural transfers over the decades. He was humble and would not boast about his achievements. He followed the ways of his traditional elders and teachers, whose stories he shared kindly. Paul was closely connected to many clans throughout “Indian Country,” with whom he established lifelong relationships. He adopted many children and grandchildren, establishing a large spiritual family, many of whom attended Paul and Albertine’s Beaver Bundle ceremonies. Paul traveled to art shows throughout the western United States and Canada, buying, selling and appraising art work. His friend David Levine said it best: “Paul was an example of how one can become what one embraces. He became what he willed himself to be.” A passage from his latest book: “To my father, the first storyteller in my life; and to all storytellers, whoever they may be, past, present and future. May their stories live on forever, for they carry the essence of life itself.” Paul is survived by his daughters, Jennifer (Eric) and Denise (Jackie); his wife, Albertine; sons, Josh and JT; grandchildren, Keon, Brittany, Karson and Kylee; brothers, Ken (Mary) and Tom; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Eugene and Irene Raczka. A burial is planned for a later date. Arrangements are in the care of O’Connor Funeral Home in Great Falls, Mont. We would like to thank everyone who was a part of his life.

James Edward Service (Jan. 20, 1931 – Feb. 10, 2017) Vice Admiral, USN (Ret.) James “Jim” Service, 86, passed away on Feb. 10, in Carlsbad, Calif., with wife, Natalie, and granddaughters, Connie Service and Meredith Johnson, at his side. He is survived by Natalie and three sons, Mark, Bruce and David. He is also survived by six grandchildren and two great-grandchildren, with four more on the way! Jim was captivated by airplanes and flying in his youth and completed his first solo flight in a J3 Cub at 15, subsequently pursuing a career in aviation as a naval aviation cadet in 1950. A decorated combat pilot, he flew missions in the Korean and Vietnam wars, enjoying a long and storied career as a naval aviator, retiring in 1987. His love of flying continued for many years, owning two general aviation aircraft in which he and Natalie and his sons would launch on various adventures (including flights into Sulphur Creek for the $100 breakfast!). Jim was a graceful athlete and his skill at flying seemed to extend to everything he attempted. He was elegant and accurate with a fly rod, an exquisite skier and a fabulous wing shooter.

His motto was, “If you’re not having fun, you’re not doing it right!” He possessed a playful sense of humor and delighted in a great joke and a clever story, many of which would not be appropriate in today’s “politically correct” culture. Jim had a great love of critters and a very strong affection for those of the canine variety. He loved all kinds of dogs and especially valued the retriever breeds, owning several capable and loyal Labradors over the years that supported his fowling exploits. Handsome and charming, with a magnetic personality, Jim was characterized in the book “23-Navy Air in Korea” as having movie-star good looks, a quality he maintained into his advancing years. He was a bold and caring patriarch with a deep love of family and friends and he enjoyed gatherings, large and small, at the home he and Natalie built in Greenhorn Gulch. Following his retirement from the Navy, Jim was a director at the Wood River Medical Center in Ketchum from 1991 to 1995. He also served as a financial adviser for PGR Advisors consulting group in San Jose, Calif., and on the board of directors of the Sturm, Ruger Co. Inc. as chairman of the board and later as chairman emeritus. Donations as a tribute to Jim can be made to Ketchum/Sun Valley Volunteer Firefighters Association, Box 1262, Ketchum, ID 83340 or alternatively The Nature Conservancy. A menu for donations is accessible on its easy-to-navigate website. Throttle up, Jim!

Bette Cooper Scott Our dear friend Bette passed away on Feb. 9 after a long illness at her home in Los Angeles. Bette first came to Sun Valley in the 1950s and so began a lifetime love of our area in both summer and winter seasons. After the first few visits, she and her family chose Snow Creek as their Sun Valley home, where they stayed until the present. Bette was an avid and beautiful skier and was a happy part of our wonderful social scene with her husband, Edward, and sons, Scott, Mark and Bart. She will be remembered by many Sun Valley friends, and few lights ever shined brighter than Bette for those who knew her. Take a run down Graduate and lift a glass for our wonderful friend. God speed, Bette Scott.

Joey Oropeza Joey Oropeza, 58, of Ketchum, Idaho, passed away on Feb. 12, 2017, with dear friends by his side. Joey will be deeply missed by his family and all of his friends he made over the 36 years living in Ketchum. Joey was born to the late Jess Oropeza and Adeline Oropeza Esquivel on Oct. 20, 1958 in Fresno, Calif. He is survived by his stepfather, Frank Esquivel, and wife, Cathy, of Fowler, Calif.; brother, Jess Oropeza, and his wife, Loretta, of Newberry, S.C.; sister, Jean Samaniego, and her husband, Mike, of Tucson, Ariz.; sister Judy Young, and her husband, Rick, of Ivanhoe, Texas; and brother, Frankie Esquivel, and his wife, Amy, of Clovis, Calif. No services are being performed at this time. In lieu of flowers, we are asking that donations be made to the Magic Valley Kidney Center in Twin Falls, Idaho.

Lucas Andrew Simpson Lucas Andrew Simpson passed away Jan. 2 at his home in Anchorage, Alaska, surrounded by his family. He was 45 years young. Luke succumbed to injuries suffered in a mountain bike accident in November 2013. For more than three years, he fought with strength, bravery and the love he has for his family. Luke is survived by his wife, Kris; son, Will, and daughter Kate; mom, Patty; brothers, Allan, Jeff and Sam and sister, Heidi; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his father, Allan. Luke loved Sun Valley and had many friends here. Make a turn for him on Baldy, have a beer for him at Grumps. Luke will be missed by all who knew him.

Taylor’s blast gives goalie Thomson his 100th Suns win Sun Valley sweeps St. Nicks 6-5 OT, 4-3 By JEFF CORDES

Express Staff Writer

ith the clock ticking down toward the prospect of yet another overtime shootout, fifth-year Sun Valley Suns center Justin Taylor moved into position on the power play and checked out the situation. The Suns were on the power play deep in the St. Nicks zone in wide open ice, and Taylor figured he had as good a chance as anyone for the game-winning shot before 246 fans at Campion Ice House Friday. A former Lake Forest College star forward riding a hot streak, Taylor wound up and fired an absolute blast from 20 feet. It ricocheted into the net off the body of St. Nicks goalie Andrew Margolin and gave the Suns a 6-5 overtime win over the New York visitors. Taylor’s game-winning and hat trick goal—the third straight Suns power play goal Friday—also provided 14th-year Suns goalie Ryan Thomson with his 100th career Sun Valley win. His happy teammates mobbed Thomson. “A great team guy,” said Suns coach Marty Flichel about goalie Thomson, who earned the “George Jacket” for his exceptional play. Thomson (38 saves) and Taylor, notching a three-goal hat trick for the second straight Friday night, were the Suns heroes on another night of terrific Sun Valley defense against a skilled and fastskating opponent. Staunch Suns team defense continued to excel and produce results Saturday as wing Branislav Kost scored twice, Taylor added a huge third-period goal and goalie Matt Cooper (28 saves) shut the door on St. Nicks in a 4-3 triumph. It was the first Suns sweep of St. Nicks in 10 years since the 23-1-0 Suns squad of 2006-07 beat the New York City visitors 3-2 and 9-4 on Sun Valley ice. It gave the Suns a three-game winning streak after last weekend’s split with Holy Cross. Flichel said afterward, “The last couple of weeks we’ve had to play against a couple of good teams. We’ve had to deal with some injuries. But the guys have done a great job buying into our system and learning their identity as a team. “Everybody does their job. They know where everybody is on the ice. And they all executed great.” Most of the scoring has come from the newly-assembled Suns forward line of center Taylor along with wings Max Tardy and Branislav Kost. Against St. Nicks, they tallied 13 of the 26 team points, including 7 of the 10 goals. Last weekend against Holy Cross, the Taylor line amassed 17 of the 30 Suns points, and seven of the 12 goals. So, their four-game scoring line reads 30 of the total of 56 Suns points, and 14 of the 22 goals. “They seem to be a step ahead of everybody else on the ice, and it seems like they’ve been playing together for 10 years,” said Flichel, the Idaho Steelheads Hall of Fame player currently on injured reserve. Defense and goaltending have been outstanding. Over two weekends, the Suns (11-7) have been out-shot 166-118, but they have outscored Holy Cross and St. Nicks 22-18 and won three of the four games. Friday, the Suns with only 25 shots on goalie Margolin capitalized on their chances.

Sun Valley jumped to a 3-1 lead in the first period on two Taylor goals along with a Kost score, assisted by Taylor (5 points for the night). Ryan Enrico’s power play goal on an explosive Chad Levitan charge into the St. Nicks zone made it 4-2 early in the second period. The Suns never trailed—defenseman Mike Curry scoring on a power play assisted by Taylor in the second period for a 5-3 Suns lead. St. Nicks forced overtime on goals by Kevin Kaiser and Kevin Sullivan. In the five-minute, four-on-four sudden victory overtime period, Curry had the best early chance but former Connecticut College goalie Margolin (19 saves) stopped Curry at the side of the St. Nicks net after an excellent set-up by Tardy. Yet Curry was determined to carry the puck through the open ice and stayed on the ice for nearly two minutes, through line changes, until St. Nicks finally had to stop his progress with a hooking penalty. The Suns went on the power play with 2:31 left in OT. Twenty seconds into the Suns power play, the puck popped out for New York in the neutral zone, behind the Suns defense, and St. Nicks had its best chance at a winner. Frequent Suns nemesis and former Princeton University captain Kaiser skated in toward Thomson and went fishing for a score on a two-on-one, but his shot at the game winner went high and over the net. “I came out as far as I could,” said goalie Thomson. That left Taylor to be the hero. He made no mistake with a rocket of a shot with 1:39 left. Taylor’s decider improved Thomson’s record to 100-59-1 in his 166 games. “One of the great moments in my life,” said his wife Emily. Goalie Thomson, in the Suns net since 2003, was happy and a little relieved.

He said he never likes to “chase a number,” in such a team game like hockey, but Thomson said the prospect of attaining his 100th Suns win was in the back of his mind after his last two starts ended in overtime losses to Vail Yeti and Holy Cross Crusaders. Indeed, Thomson has been in the Suns net for seven of the team’s unprecedented

total of nine overtime games this season. And now, he has won three of those seven OT games. “It seems like every game I’ve played has been OT,” he said. First-year Suns goalie Cooper, from Duluth, posted his fourth Sun Valley victory Saturday and was likely glad that See HOCKEY SEASON, Page 17

Josey ends up second in World Cup halfpipe

SVSEF Nordic racer Morgan kicks off FIS Worlds

Hailey rider competes at South Korea finale

Former UVM racer is from Bozeman

Hailey’s Chase Josey, 21, has earned second place in the 2016-17 FIS Snowboard Halfpipe World Cup series standings after four events. Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation Gold Team racer Josey capped a breakthrough season with a sixthplace finish in Sunday’s FIS Freestyle Ski and Snowboard World Cup halfpipe finale in South Korea that served as a dry run for the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics. Josey (2360 points season) picked up 400 points for Sunday’s sixth-place finish and his 79.75-point second of three runs on the Phoenix Park Pipe. There were 33 riders in the men’s halfpipe final. He finished second for the four-race season series behind 22-year-old Australian snowboarder Scotty James (2700 points). James was the 1000-point winner of Sunday’s race. James, reigning world champion from East Melbourne, saved his best effort for his third and final run of 96.00 points to ride past first-run leader Shaun White of San Diego, Ca. (95.00). It was James’ first individual World Cup win. White, 30, the 2006 and 2010 Olympic champion from San Diego, finished third in the men’s season standings with 1930 points achieved in three of the four halfpipe events. James’ winning run featured backside double cork 1260, frontside double cork 1080, cab double cork 1080 and

frontside 900. White led Saturday’s men’s halfpipe qualification with a 93.25-point first run. Josey had placed second in Saturday’s qualifying with an 89.50-point second of two runs. Josey, wearing bib No. 1 throughout the competition, landed a backside air to back-to-back double cork 1080s, a frontside 900 and a double michalchuck in his 89.50-point qualifier on Saturday. Winning Sunday’s 27-rider women’s halfpipe final was three-time Olympic medalist Kelly Clark, 33, from New England. Clark won her second straight World Cup event with a 94.00 on her second run. She threw down a frontside air to backside 540 mute, frontside 1080 indy, cab 720 invert and crippler indy. Clark said about her 13th World Cup victory, “This is a huge step for me in my process of coming back from my hip surgery and to get my riding back to a really high level. Settling for fourth place and 500 points with an 82.50 second run in today’s women’s halfpipe final was 16-year-old snowboard sensation Chloe Kim of La Palma, Ca. Nevertheless Kim nailed down her first-ever World Cup season title with 3000 points, ahead of Clark (2500). Kim and Josey were the women’s and men’s winners in the second of the four World Cup halfpipes Jan. 21 at Laax, Switz. Kim also won Dec. 16 at Mammoth Mountain, Ca.

Sun Valley Ski Educatioin Foundation cross-country ski racer Cole Morgan will be competing in the first event of the World Nordic Ski Championships in Finland Thursday. Morgan, 22, will represent the U.S. in the freestyle sprint. He was the youngest of 17 athletes named by the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association to the cross-country ski team competing in the International Ski Federation’s 2017 Nordic World Ski Championships Feb. 23-March 5 at Lahti, Finland. NBCsports.com will live stream the competition. Morgan competed in cross-country skiing for the University of Vermont for four years and spent a post-graduate year with the SVSEF in 2012. The son of John and Jean Morgan attended Bozeman (Mt.) High School and was a four-time National Collegiate All-American at UVM. First-year SVSEF Gold Team member Morgan was named SVSEF “Athlete of the Month” for January.

Gold Team head coach Chris Mallory said, “Cole qualified for the World Championships as the top sprinter on the SuperTour ranking list after a pair of second-place U.S. finishers at the 2017 nationals.” In its report naming Morgan, the SVSEF said, “Cole has been making his mark in sprint races this season. “Following promising early-season SuperTour finishes, Cole approached U.S. Nationals in January with confidence and tenacity. He skied smart qualifiers and heats that landed him in third on the U.S. podium in the classic sprint. “With this result along with earlier season points, Cole qualified to represent the U.S. at World Championships in Lahti. Cole also represented the U.S. at the recent U-23 World Championships at Soldier Hollow, Utah. “Cole skied all the way into the semifinals, where he finished fifth in his heat, putting him in ninth overall. This result secured his selection to the U.S. Team for World Cup Finals, which will be held in Quebec City in March.”

SVYH girls wrap up state championship season Close title game to Suns 1-0 on Boise ice Capping a successful 18-4-2 season with a state championship, the Sun Valley Youth Hockey U-19 girls’ hockey team defeated a determined band of Salmon Lady Rapids by a 1-0 score in Sunday’s title game at Boise’s Idaho Ice World. The Suns, after two periods of scoreless hockey, got the goal they needed when Sydney Roberts tallied the eventual game winner with 9:41 left in the third period. Sun Valley continued to play aggressively and kept up the offensive pressure for the shutout. Head coach Chris Zarkos said, “It was a pretty great goal by Sydney. She just got off the bench to start her shift and got the puck at center ice. She crashed the net and scored. It was a great solo effort by our team’s emotional leader.

“Sydney had made a speech to the team between the second and third periods about finishing the game off and leaving it all on the ice. We had incredible defense and goaltending in that game and all season long to win the championship.” Sun Valley brought home the state girls’ tournament trophy after a sevenyear drought. The Suns outscored opponents 76-22 this season, and out-shot them 614-308. The team loses two seniors and promises to be a future force. In other games during the threeday, three-team Idaho Amateur Hockey Association (IAHA) U-19 tournament, Sun Valley defeated Idaho Falls 5-1 and Salmon Lady Rapids 2-1. Points leader for the weekend was

Morgan Benson (4 assists) followed by Abigail Benson (1 goal/2 assists).

HOCKEY SEASON IN HOMESTRETCH Suns visit Bozeman for BDHL games this weekend Continued from Page 15 Kost’s two goals along with singles from Taylor and rookie Paul Blase prevented another overtime settlement. Cooper (28 saves) was working on a shutout until the Suns dropped their guard in the final seconds of the second and Brent Ozarowski, 40, made them pay for a 3-1 game. It was the 100th career St. Nicks goal for the Union College sniper from Schenectady. Ozarkowski assisted on the St. Nicks power play goal by Kaiser early in the third period that developed on a shot from the point by defenseman Daryl Jones. It looked like the improved St. Nicks forechecking had the Suns on the run. But, once again, the Taylor line made its presence known and extended the lead. Duluth’s Tardy skated backwards at incredible speed and found a suitable spot in the St. Nicks zone to the right of goalie Margolin. He didn’t hold the puck long, whipping it to defenseman Curry on the right point. Curry fired a shot. Taylor cleaned up for a 4-2 lead. “Max creates so much on the ice,” said coach Flichel. Check Suns-St. Nicks game summaries on today’s Mountain Express website.

Panther girls cap successful season at state hoops Young Carey group picks up a win in Nampa The Carey School Panthers completed a successful season Saturday during the State 1A Division 2 girls’ basketball tournament at Nampa High School. Coach Merrilee Sears’ Panthers (9-14) won one of three games at the tourney and felt encouraged about the future with their four sophomores, one junior and one senior logging most playing time. The Northside Conference champion Panthers, after Thursday’s 47-36 firstround loss to Nezperce (20-4), regrouped Friday for a 38-33 win over the Lakeside Knights from Plummer (16-4). Carey shot 39% from the field despite not having much success (1-for-13) from 3-point range. The balanced Carey scoring was showcased against Lakeside led by Jaicee Parke (8 points, 5 rebounds), Athana Versis (8 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists), Lindsey Morey (8 points, 5 rebounds), Kodi Green (5 points, 6 boards) and Rylee Smith (5 points, 3 rebounds). In Saturday’s consolation championship, the Castleford Wolves (19-7) outscored Carey 24-7 in points off of turnovers and won the trophy 59-45 behind 30 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 6 steals by senior Haddee Reynolds. For the three games, Carey leaders in scoring were Parke (25 points) and Versis (25). Green was the rebounding leader (18 boards). Chavez (6) and Versis (5) showed the way with assists. Steals leaders were Parke (4) and Versis (4). The Butte County Pirates from Arco, competing at the 1A Division 2 level for the first year, completed the only undefeated season among this year’s state tournament teams with a 24-0 record. Butte County won three State 2A tournament titles in 2012 and 2006-07.

Gibson signs with New Hampshire football Former WRHS grid receiver Former Wood River High School star football player Gunner Gibson signed a National Letter of Intent Feb. 1 to play college football for the University of New Hampshire Wildcats in Durham, N.H. Gibson, a 2016 Wood River High School graduate, was one of 14 New Hampshire signees for 18th-year Wildcat head coach Sean McDonnell (112-70-0), a UNH graduate and former grid star who has coached in Durham since 1999. UNH football plays in the NCAA Division 1 Colonial Athletic Association, its home field the 11,000-seat Wildcat Stadium. Coach McDonnell said in announcing his new class of signees, “Gunner is an extremely talented two-way player who has a huge upside. “He has an outstanding frame to build on and we are excited about his athleticism. On offense, he has great hands and ability to separate from the second-level defenders. Defensively, he gets to the ball in a hurry and his athleticism will help him pressure the passer.” Gibson is a 6-foot-3, 230-pound linebacker/ tight end who played football for the all-boys’ prep boarding school called the Salisbury School and its Crimson Knights in Salisbury, Ct. last fall. At Wood River, Gibson was a two-time AllGreat Basin Conference First Team selection as a tight end for coach Kevin Stilling. In his senior year, Gibson was named to both the All-State First Team and All-Idaho First Team. He totaled 73 receptions for 1,859 yards and 25 touchdowns in his Wood River receiving career. At the conclusion of the 2016 season at Salisbury School, Gibson was named to the All-Erickson League First Team as a linebacker. In eight games, he tallied 56 tackles, including 31 solo and five tackles for loss and two sacks, as well as two interceptions. On offense, Gibson averaged 14 yards per catch on 20 receptions and scored three touchdowns.

It seems a lot of people are missing the point of Misc II...kindly take your whining and abuse of others and try confronting the targets of your vitriol! Let Love triumph not hate! Leave it to you to choose the least qualified candidate. You’re so threatened by people with actual knowledge and experience that you go for the one least likely to expose you. A true narcissist, you leave a trail of wreckage wherever you go. There is so much hate and aggression going around these days. Spread some love and if anyone needs to vent you can find me where the Sun meets the Sea. We can watch the birds fly around the horizon while I lend you an open ear. To the guys who replaced their truck’s transmission on Aviation Drive. Please come back and pick up the old transmission you left in the middle of the road. Vamps V#4. She’s always there to SAVE the Day - benefits, paddles up and that English sway. Along her trail you might just find, a place where old timers choose to unwind. Want me to wear a ring? Most “men” in WRV only care about themselves. Selfish and not faithful. Falling over themselves to see what walked past the window. Then wonder why they’re still single at 35.

NEEDED: Aluminum Cans, your donation will help support new playground equipment in Hailey thru Kiwanis Club. Drop donations off at 4051 Glenbrook Drive in Woodside Industrial Park or call Bob at 788-0018 to arrange pick-up. Over $8,000 donated so far.

Also want textbooks or college books. We pick up for free. 208-788-3964. NEEDED: Seeking used laptops,10 yrs old or less, not working ok, to refurbish for teachers & students in Haiti. We have given 80 computers & need more. We will pay shipping to Florida. Our daughter in Hailey can mail them for us if we need to. tadmwalton@msn.com

RATES

NEEDED: A place near Hailey or Bellevue to park my nice, grey, Haulmark (transport) cargo trailer (7’X12’). Thanx. 720-2162.

D F O O GS O R WHY CLEAN YOUR ROOF OF SNOW AND ICE?

It’s not the weight. Most structures in the Wood Rver Valley are not at risk- not even close. Problems arise when heat from the roof causes thaw and at night it re-freezes. Snow and ice block the designed flow of water off the roof. In turn water seeps into any crack or space rather than running off. (usually this is under the roofing.) At night the moisture freezes & expands. This process creates a growing ice wedge that can open up roofs like a can opener. Asphalt & wood shingles, metal and flat roofs are ALL damaged this way. The steeper the roof, the less potential problem. A cleared roof allows water to flow as designed, thus preventing damage to roof and home.

Artist Mahwish Chishty to give talk at The Center Pakistani-born artist Mahwish Chishty will give a talk in the gallery at Sun Valley Center for the Arts at 591 Fifth St. E. in Ketchum on Thursday, Feb. 23, beginning at 6:30 p.m., following a free tour of The Center’s “Rayguns, Robots, Drones” exhibition from 5:30-6:30 p.m. Chishty, whose drone-inspired art is featured in the exhibition, will explain how she has incorporated her training as a painter of miniatures into her work on drones using traditional techniques to tackle issues with contemporary political and social relevance. She also will discuss the impact of her 2011 visit to Pakistan and how the presence of drones in everyday life—and in news media and casual conversation—inspired her work.

Family of Woman Film Festival begins next week The annual Family of Woman Film Festival will begin Monday, Feb. 27, with a free Filmmaker Retrospective program at 6 p.m. at The Community Library in Ketchum. Afghani filmmaker Sedika Mojadidi will return to present her documentary, “Motherland Afghanistan,” which was shown at the first Family of Woman Film Festival in 2008. In 2006, she accompanied her obstetrician/gynecologist father back to Afghanistan for the first time since their family fled when she was a child. He was appalled to find that women had little access to adequate health care, and Mojadidi filmed his battle against one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the world. Mojadidi also will present clips from a film she has just completed in Afghanistan about the status of women there today. For a complete schedule of the festival and ticket prices to other events, visit the festival’s website at www.familyofwomanfilmfestival.org.

or most musical groups, losing or adding a player will alter the group’s sound somewhat—that’s the nature of the beast. Such changes could be good or bad, depending on the group’s musical focus and desired direction. But for Time for Three, the category-defying contemporary classical music trio beginning its final year of a three-year residency with the Sun Valley Summer Symphony, a shakeup in the group’s dynamics represents something more. “With a group like ours, with three very powerful musical personalities, it’s like an organism,” group member Nick Kendall said. “When you change a third of it, you change the organism.” See TIME, Page 5

‘Rusalka’ presents fairy tale on a grand scale Production from the Met to be broadcast live in Hailey By ANDY KERSTETTER Express Staff Writer

A mythical water creature falls in love with a human prince. Against her father’s judgment, she seeks help from a witch to become human in order to marry the prince, but the cost of becoming human entails losing her voice. At first glance, this premise of famed Czech composer Antonin Dvorák’s opera “Rusalka”—based on fairy tales of Karel Jaromir Erben and Bozena Nemcova—seems very similar to Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Little Mermaid,” on which it is based. But apart from that initial premise, “Rusalka,” a classic fairy tale of fairies and goblins, love and rejection, deviates significantly from Andersen’s tale, eventually culminating in the Rusalka becoming a spirit of death whom the prince can’t shake his love for, to tragic results. “Rusalka” was Dvorák’s ninth opera, and became a cornerstone of Czech opera after its 1901 premiere. For many years, unfamiliarity

with Dvorák’s operas outside Czechoslovakia helped keep “Rusalka” obscure. In recent years, it has been performed more regularly by major opera companies—in five seasons from 2008 to 2013, it was performed by opera companies worldwide far more than all of Dvorák’s other operas combined. Now New York City’s Metropolitan Opera is producing the opera, which will be broadcast live from the Met on Saturday, Feb. 25, to theaters across the country, including Big Wood Cinemas in Hailey. Operatic soprano Kristine Opolais stars in the title role, which helped launch her international career, singing the famous aria “Song to the Moon” to profess her love for the prince. Directed by Mary Zimmerman, Brandon Jovanovich, Jamie Barton, Katarina Dalayman and Eric Owens complete the all-star cast, with Mark Elder conducting. Song to the Moon,” from Act 1, is the most popular excerpt from the opera, and is often performed in concert and recorded separately. It See ‘RUSALKA’, Page 3

It will comprise reading excerpts of great short stories and novels to break down what makes them exceptional and how other fiction writers can accomplish similar ends. “We’ll look at sample stories from Western writers like Richard Bourd and others,” Winn said. “We’ll look at craft issues and techniques and see what we can learn from these published authors.” Participants will examine techniques for writing memorable characters, vivid settings, dialogue, plot, meaningful scenes and effective points of view. The class will end with participants’ working on some of their own writing and sharing it with each other, with a chance to read it publicly at the Literary Jam later Courtesy photo that evening. “The three hours will go by fast,” Winn said.

Ketchum pushes for more public art City requesting submissions from artists for projects around town By ANDY KERSTETTER Express Staff Writer

Seeking paintings for Ketchum City Hall, posters for Wagon Days and artistic manhole covers and mosaics incorporated into sidewalks, the city of Ketchum is putting out a call to artists near and far: Show us your best stuff. The Ketchum Arts Commission selected Wagon Days as the theme for this year’s Art in City Hall program, in celebration of the event’s 60th anniversary. Artists may submit artwork related to the parade, the ore wagons or the history of mining in the valley. There is no fee to apply for either project. The artwork selected for the City Hall project will be displayed in Ketchum’s council chamber from May 15 to Nov. 15. Assistant City Administrator Lisa Enourato said submitting artists needn’t necessarily be residents of the Wood River Valley. She also said this is the first year the city has put out a general call for the City Hall project, now in its fourth year. “In previous years, the Ketchum Arts Commission chose the medium and then sought out artists who worked within that medium,” Enourato said. She said art displayed in City

Hall gains much attention from those attending various meetings held there. Artists must submit up to five original, two-dimensional works for consideration. Artists have two ways to submit art to be considered for the 2017 Wagon Days posters and souvenirs. The city considers art submitted for Ketchum’s Art on Fourth program for Wagon Days art as long as that art is related to the Wagon Days celebration or the area’s mining history. Artists interested only in the Wagon Days poster and souvenir art and not Art on Fourth will also be considered. Selected artwork will be the official poster for the 60th celebration of Wagon Days later this year and will be incorporated onto souvenir items such as commemorative mugs, pins, T-shirt and more. “Over the years, the posters have become treasured souvenirs of the annual Wagon Days weekend and many have become collectors’ items,” city officials stated.” Posters and other items will be on display and offered for sale at Wagon Days headquarters leading up to and during the Wagon Days weekend over Labor Day.” Selected artists will receive a stipend of $350. The deadline for submissions is April 7. Photographers, graphic artists and oth-

This poster design by Nina Fox was selected as Ketchum’s 2016 Wagon Days poster and souvenir art. The design was included on all the Wagon Days posters and souvenirs from 2016. Ketchum city officials have opened submissions for the 2017 Wagon Days poster art as well as a variety of other art projects in town. ers working in creative fields are encouraged to apply. The call for artists, with details on the submission process, can be found at www.ketchumidaho.org/arts or by contacting Sharon Arms, arts and events coordinator at sarms@ ketchumidaho.org or 726-7820. Additionally, the city is asking artists to submit their qualifications to be considered for projects that would be incorporated into public infrastructure, such as decorative park benches, sculpted bicycle racks and utility boxes wrapped in artistic designs. Selected artists will be included in a prequalified artist pool for con-

sideration for art incorporated into a variety of public projects. More possibilities include fences, walls and sidewalks, which are particularly important as Ketchum plans major new sidewalks and the completion of new tennis courts at Atkinson Park this spring. “Ketchum is filled with artists and creative minds,” Mayor Nina Jonas said in a city newsletter. “I am looking forward to seeing even more art incorporated into public infrastructure throughout town.” In 2014, Ketchum earmarked 5 percent of public capital improvement budgets to the arts. That’s believed to be the highest percent-

age of any city in the nation, the city wrote in a statement. The city previously devoted 1.33 percent to art. The higher figure will make several projects possible. The city requires that public art must be made of durable materials that are easy to maintain and able to withstand environmental elements such as direct sunlight, rain, snow and ice. Budgets may range from $5,000 to $50,000, including installation costs and payments to artists. The submission deadline for the public art is March 9. The request for qualifications can be found at www.ketchumidaho.org/arts.
