How is what's happening on the moon related to what's happening on the peaks?

Ep. 5 PART 2: Dr. Chris Jocks on the Legal history surrounding Snowbowl Ski Resort (Snowbowl Series)

Episode 6

Wednesday, February 26, 2025 • Duration 39:07

Thinking about skiing at Snowbowl? Might want to think again. Listen to this series to learn more about why you may want to think twice before spending time there…

This episode is part of a series focused on sharing more about the CRISIS that is Snowbowl Ski Resort (outside of Flagstaff, Arizona) and the agencies that are supposed to hold them accountable.

EPISODES 4 AND 5:

In these episodes, we have a conversation with Dr. Chris Jocks (Kanien’kehá:ka), chair of the Applied Indigenous Studies dept. at NAU. Chris has been involved in the defense of the peaks for decades, and during this time, has developed a particular expertise on the legal side of the issue(s). Through our conversation, we look at the direct actions filed against Snowbowl and other supreme court cases that have affected Tribal Nations, organizations, and peak defenders’ legal power on the issue. It is clear through this legal exploration that the government upholds money and property above the health of land and people ( no surprise…) … but so does Snowbowl.

Ep. 1 PART1: Shawn Mulford on the Defense of the Peaks and Diné Cultural Connections (Snowbowl Ski Resort)

Episode 2

Monday, January 13, 2025 • Duration 44:52

This episode is a part of a mini-series that we developed in partnership with 3 students from NAU focused on Snowbowl Ski Resort and the agencies that are supposed to hold them accountable. For clearer audio, skip to episode 4.

EDIT: Snowbowl Ski Resort, at the time it began using reclaimed sewage water for artificial snow, was the only resort in the world to use reclaimed water to make 100% of their artificial snow. However, since that time, it is unclear if there are other resorts that also use reclaimed waste water for 100% of their artificial snow. re: "Snowbowl is the only resort in world to use reclaimed waste water for 100% of their artificial snow"
