Burke week 4

On Friday I was with ski patrol. While there in the morning we went out to post a sign and run some rope to close off a section of trail. Both of these actions were done for the purpose of guest safety, first to give people a heads up that there is a trail crossing ahead and second to keep them off the trails that might be dangerous to ski on. Not necessarily in this case but some times trails are close as part of sustainability since to may not want a trail to get skied off and preserve the snow that is on the trail. I also got to go an a injury call at the end of the day and got to see the process in witch a responses takes place to make sure that the guest is kept safe as well as the necessary steps that are taken to protect the resort from any repercussions. On Saturday I worked at the nordic center grooming and clearing blow downs on a few trails that had yet to be opened this year. This ties to guest satisfaction since now all of the nordic trails had been cleared and groomed for the season.
