Ashland Association is proposing the following work as Phase One of the USFS approved Record of Decision for the improvements analyzed within those documents. The goal is to improve our Guest's experience and increase safety on the mountain. 1. Parking has long been the number one complaint from our Guests on the multiple crowded days during an average ski season. The lack of adequate parking spaces during those busy times is also a concern of local law enforcement and the Oregon Department of Transportation. We are proposing to add approximately 90 additional parking spaces on the uphill side of the access road where it enters the current parking lot. This area is on the Cottonwood drainage side of the Permit area, not in the Ashland Watershed drainage and does not involve placing any fill material or the building of any reinforced slope stabilization structure. 2. Re-contouring of the Sonnet beginner area is needed to better serve our future skier's. Currently the slope starts off at approximately a 6% downgrade, then increases to a 15% to 18% downgrade and then flattens back out to around an 8% downgrade. By taking the fill material removed from the uphill side of the access road for the new parking area and moving it to the Sonnet run we can re-grade the ski run to meet the ideal slope pitch of approximately 11% downgrade for the upper three quarters of the run. This will make our Guests first time experience better and increase safety. This area is on the very top of the Ashland Watershed drainage and is an area that has already been stabilized and will not affect the current work that has been done in that area. 3. Select existing runs that have been analyzed and approved will be widened by tree removal only. All but two of these runs widening projects are listed by the parties in the current legal action "do not object to and do not seek to enjoin." No on the ground dirt work will be done and all tree removal will be done under the guidance and prescription already lay out by the USFS. No tree removal is proposed for any of the new runs in the C-6 expansion area in this phase. P.O.
