Great weather for making snow!

Last night was good and cold, and the snowmakers have been making good progress on Bald and Dollar mountains.  The forecasts show continued cold temperatures throughout this weekend and all next week – and we’ll be taking advantage of every minute of it.

Sun Valley Nordic Center preparing for the season!

NordicSkiingIf you haven’t started preparing for the upcoming Nordic season, it’s never too late to begin.  We’re switching over our retail inventory, waxing our skis and mowing the trails in anticipation of a fantastic Cross Country Ski season.

This season, we hope you will enjoy the new Sun Valley Clubhouse with us.  What more could you want from a Nordic experience?  Perfect grooming everyday, consistent snow conditions, sunny days, and the nicest Nordic lodge in America.  During this shoulder season, why not stop by the Clubhouse, have a look around and eat at one of the best lunch establishments in the Wood River Valley!

Snowmaking has begun on Bald Mountain and Dollar Mountain!!

Informant! The Informant!

Copyright ©Warner Bros Pictures

What was Mark Whitacre thinking? A rising star at agri-industry giant Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), Whitacre suddenly turns whistleblower. Even as he exposes his company’s multi-national price-fixing conspiracy to the FBI, Whitacre envisions himself being hailed as a hero of the common man and handed a promotion. But before all that can happen, the FBI needs evidence, so Whitacre eagerly agrees to wear a wire and carry a hidden tape recorder in his briefcase, imagining himself as a kind of de facto secret agent. Unfortunately for the FBI, their lead witness hasn’t been quite so forthcoming about helping himself to the corporate coffers. Whitacre’s ever-changing account frustrates the agents and threatens the case against ADM as it becomes almost impossible to decipher what is real and what is the product of Whitacre’s rambling imagination. The film is based on the true story of the highest-ranking corporate whistleblower in U.S. history.
