EDITOR’S NOTE:

As people living in Oregon’s outdoor sports wonderland, there’s no doubt we’re stoked to bring you this edition of our annual Winter Insider—full of great stories of winter days gone by, and what to look forward to in the coming months. But even as we forge forward into winter, I’m also happy to recall events transpiring since last week’s feature, “The Car Camping Dilemma,” which outlined the challenges people face while living in their vehicles in Bend. We sought the story at the suggestion of a reader—which is no surprise, since the best stories tend to come right from the people who read us every week! But what happened next illustrates, truly, why we do what we do. I got a call from a reader this week, offering stable housing for one of the individuals mentioned in that story. It made my heart sing to know not just that people are reading our work, but that they’re also moved to action by it. However the tale ends, I’m heartened to see that type of community spirit happening around us. This is an example of community newspapering at its best. And yes, I just made “newspapering” a verb!

It’s Time to Give!

A note from our publisher on a special program

ere at the Source Weekly, we’ve been publishing our Central Oregon Give Guide, in its current form, for the past six years. It’s been a helpful compendium of local nonprofits, with a description of their services and their year-end needs. This year, with the help of Rys Fairbrother and his online platform, WhatIfWeCould.com, we decided to do something special. Together, we embarked on a collaboration that allows readers to learn about local nonprofits, and then give directly to those nonprofits through our online portal, centraloregongives.com. In this day and age of global communication, where it’s easy to get emotionally engaged with what’s going on in New York, Washington or Los Angeles, it’s important to remember that we live in Bend, Oregon. It’s here that we have collectively agreed to spend our time together—and hopefully it is here that we can collectively make a significant impact and help those who need it the most. We’re very excited about this opportunity that will usher in a new form of online giving for the more than 50 nonprofits that are participating in this inaugural year. I’ve heard consistently from the nonprofit community that growing a new donor base of younger givers is one of their biggest challenges. This giving program was designed to meet that challenge by making the online platform easy to use, and by incentivizing donors with great prizes from supporting sponsors. Each week, any donor who gives $25 or more will receive a gift, such as a free pint of beer from Immersion Brewing, Avid Cider or Worthy Brewing, or a coffee drink from Backporch Coffee Roasters, to name a few. The donation will change each week—not unlike a radio support

program—and each week we hope to see support for these nonprofits increase. We were also fortunate to have a donor come forward who will give $25,000 to the nonprofit that raises the most funds through the program. We’ve already seen several nonprofits that are shifting their year-end giving program to this platform and excitement is building as local companies begin to use their corporate giving programs to help a nonprofit dear to them achieve their year-end financial goals. I feel very fortunate that Fairbrother came to me a year ago with his unique approach to establishing an online platform to raise awareness for the Central Oregon nonprofit community. At the time, I had been exploring the idea of creating a nonprofit foundation that would allow our publication to accept donated funds and then distribute them, as some publications in other markets have done. Fairbrother was quick to point out the real-time benefits of giving directly through a website that can be set up to track donations and reward donors instantly. It has been his commitment that has made this happen. This is where you come in. Starting Nov. 14, the online donation process will begin at centraloregongives.com. You can pick up a copy of our Give Guide! in our next issue, or go to our website, read about all of the fabulous nonprofits that are participating this year and decide which ones align with your values and your desire to help. At that point, go to centraloregongives.com and give! Every donation helps and in any given week one of the many sponsors supporting this program will reward you for your good deed. Check it out at Centraloregives.com. -Aaron Switzer, Source Weekly publisher and founder

SO LONG TO SWAG

RE: IRRIGATION DOES NOT MEAN AGRICULTURE IN DESCHUTES COUNTY, LETTERS, 10/24

Mr. Lind makes some valid points in his opinion piece, but also misrepresents some things. My family has been here since 1906, when the government was enticing people to settle this desert area, build the irrigation canals and start farming. Even I have difficulty designating this area as Exclusive Farm Use, but that’s an issue with Oregon and Deschutes County not water districts or agriculture. But, to Mr. Lind’s opinion piece: First, he states “It is also important to know that many of these landowners would gladly give up their water, or at least greatly reduce their allotment, if they could. Irrigation districts simply do not allow this.” This is certainly anecdotal and not factual on either count. Water districts do have options to put water back for other uses without losing water rights. Secondly, Mr. Lind seems to criticize farmers and ranchers because such endeavors are not very profitable. That idea is not news but, again, the facts given can be misrepresented. For example, many farmers rent their pastures to ranchers for grazing. Not that the cattle ranchers are making fortunes, but they are typically making more money than the farmer who owns the pasture. Agriculture is like any other industry: you need to look at the entire supply chain to assess the public benefit. There are other points made by Mr. Lind to which I take exception, but this is my opinion: we can only address an issue and find a solution by dealing with facts, not hyperbole. —Dan Ellingson

RE: CATTLE MUTILIATIONS AND A SATANIC CULT? 10/31

RE: Your article on Cattle Mutilations. This is nothing new, these cattle mutilation stories go back to around 1948 in various parts of the U.S. A good history is reported in a Skeptical Inquirer article by John Steward: Volume 01, No. 2 Spring / Summer 1977 Titled “Cattle Mutilations:: An Episode of Collective Delusions.” Usually the cattle are found about THREE days or so after death, with no tracks around the carcass, with the soft tissue of the cattle missing to some degree. Most probably it is that rodents have eaten the soft tissue as the hide is difficult for rodents to eat. Rodents do not leave big foot prints. Why did these cows die? Last check around Central Oregon found a correlation with wet springs and fast plant growth which in turn had low nutrient in grasses the cows were eating. Challenge this as my memory is poor. Sure there will be people that kill for meat and others that just like to kill things. But test the simple solution first. Right now your article has too much Mulder and not enough Scully! UFOs? Impossible! How can you have an expert in something that does not exist? Satanic cults, highly unlikely, but then again it is Halloween. —William Martin

RE: THE CAR CAMPING DILEMMA, 10/31

The homeless situation is so complicated. The city must somehow meet the needs of the home and business owners and provide services and parking for those living in their cars. It can be done, but it takes a city council willing to work together and determined to find the solution. In politics these days, consensus seems nearly impossible. What cities have been proactive? What cities have reached good solutions? I’ve heard the problem has been nearly solved in Utah. Bend council members need to seek outside help. —Kathleen Ikola Kenna, via bendsource.com

In alignment with The Environmental Center’s efforts to have the folks of Central Oregon reduce waste, I suggest that the organizers of the many local competitive events that offer swag bags reconsider. Instead, they could offer participants “opt in/out” of swag when they pre-register, providing a slight discount for those who opt out. More is only better when it adds to the experience, not when it adds to the landfill. —Gina Meredith

The city bought Juniper Ridge years ago to develop into an industrial area. It was also supposed to be the location of the new OSU campus. The city has failed miserably with this area, Why not pave an area out there, provide sanitation, security and a shelter for the homeless and instruct them to go there if they want to stay in the Bend area. This would provide a safe location for the homeless and get them out of the neighborhoods. —Lew Johnson, via bendsource.com Thank you for writing about this. I have been living in a car for a few years in Bend and the struggle is real (on both sides--for the homeless, and the neighborhoods where ppl park). I am a working class person with valid registration, car insurance, no DUIIs, etc, but this was STILL very relatable in so many ways—just living in your car comes with a lot of stigma and being “frowned upon” by those with homes in Bend. —Kayla Sulak, via bendsource.com

Are Studded Tires Really Necessary? WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 7, 2019 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

With winter ahead, we examine whether cutting corners will lead to skidding out By Cayla Clark

es Schwab says, “Winter tires are important for safe driving if you live somewhere that gets snow, ice, sleet or freezing rain and temperatures of 40 degrees or colder.” Bridgestone Tire informs, “The best way to be prepared for unpredictable winter roads is to install winter tires (also known as snow tires) on your vehicle.” If you ask any major tire company, they’ll most likely suggest that failing to change out your tires as soon as the temperature drops could lead to serious, preventable accidents. The advice makes sense, seeing as winter tires are big business for tire companies in snow-prone towns. But what about the type of winter tires that come with metal studs? Benjamin Hunting, a contributor for the NAPA Auto Parks website, suggests that although studded tires are often “presented as the ultimate winter driving accessory,” they may actually be overkill

in most conditions. Of course, he predictably goes on to suggest that winter tires themselves are not overkill—in fact, they are (close to) essential. Are studded tires really necessary, or are we simply buying into the hype? And will studs suffice, or is springing for an entirely new set of winter tires really the only way to prevent wintertime road hazards? The Oregon Department of Transportation suggests that those who choose to utilize studs— strong, bolt-like metal pieces that are imbedded directly into tires—may actually be compromising traction. Studs are designed for very specific road conditions (and specific tires), and can legally only be used from Nov. 1 to March 31 in Oregon. Being caught with studded tires before or after the designated dates is a Class C violation, and can result in a fine of up to $200. ODOT suggests that studs exclusively be used on icy roads. If roads are wet or covered in fresh snow, studs will likely do more

harm than good. Interestingly, some of the coldest states—including Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan— prohibit studded tires, according to tirebuyer.com. “Research shows that studded tires are more effective than all-weather tires on icy roads, but are less effective in most other conditions because they may reduce traction between the road and the tire,” the ODOT website reads. “Damage from studded tires cost Oregonians approximately $8.5 million a year because roadways required repaving earlier than they normally would.” That damage typically comes in the way of pavement wear and rutted roadways—but not necessarily in the way of more potholes. Kenny Harris, assistant manager at Gills Point S Tire in Bend, explained what he believes is behind the infamous local potholes—and it isn’t the studs he recommends for rear-wheel drive vehicles. “In my opinion, potholes aren’t due to studs. I believe it has to do with the massive log trucks with giant chains, and the school buses with 30 lb. chains… not those little studs.” Harris weighed in on the studs-versus-snow-tires debate. “Obviously, preparing your car for winter is necessary, to an extent,” he explained. “We get some bad weather.” As far as what to do in preparation, “It depends on the

vehicle. If you’re driving a 4-wheel or an all-wheel drive, you’ll be OK without studs. Subarus are an ideal vehicle for Bend.” As far as basic commuting, it is Harris’ opinion that studs should be added to rear-wheel drive vehicles, but most other vehicles should be able to handle the terrain. “If you have a rear-wheel drive and no studs, you’ll spin out.” He stressed, however, that traveling long distances in winter will require more preparation—yes, even if you rock a Subie. “If you travel over the pass, you’ll want studs over stud-less,” he said. While studding for long-distance journeys is recommended, some larger vehicles should still be able to make the trip. “Any huge 4-wheeler, like a Toyota Tundra, should be OK.” For those who are unsure as to whether or not studs are necessary, they can check in with a local specialist. Studding is available for as low as $15/tire (though drivers will need to buy special studdable tires) while snow tires typically go for between $100-$400 apiece, depending on the make and model of the vehicle. People can remove studs themselves. While cutting costs and cursing Californians may seem like the most reasonable option—especially if the upcoming winter is mild—it’s important to exercise extreme caution, no matter how experience one has driving in the snow.

Bachelor for Beginners

Laurel Brauns

Mt. Bachelor invests in new infrastructure to fill in the gaps for first-time skiers and snowboarders

By Laurel Brauns The redesign begins right at the Sunrise parking lot, where an additional middle parking lot right below the Sunrise Lodge adds 300 cars, a 50% increase in capacity. Guests will now enter the lodge from the back, instead of the mountain-facing side. From there, they will move in a U-shape through the basement where they can obtain passes, get fitted for rentals and sign up for lessons. Once they’ve geared up, they’ll empty out into the Woodward Start Park, an open area with small snow ramps and stops where they can get a feel for what it’s like to wear something slippery on their feet. “Zone coaches” will be standing by, offering tips and support, as well as suggesting lessons. Beginners will then move on to “First Rays,” a 70-foot-long enclosed carpet tube with a slight incline that will provide a gentle introduction to riding down. Aside from rentals, the start park and the smaller carpet are free, though customers will be required to obtain a pass inside the lodge. After graduating to a $39-a-day beginner lift pass, skiers and riders can head over to “Lava Tube,” a 300-foot carpet Laurel Brauns

These signs directing guests to the ski shop and rental area were part of the original Sunrise Lodge, built in 1980.

First Rays carpet tube and Early Riser chair are two new additions added this year by Mt. Bachelor to help beginners learn to ski and snowboard.

that provides access to progression one and two. On the far side of the tube is a very shallow half pipe for practicing turns, while riding closer to the lodge opens up an area with a few trees as obstacles. Guests can ski through the forest on some freshly cut trails after taking the new 629-foot Early Riser quad, and when they’re ready, they’ll hop on the Alpenglow Chair (formerly named Carrousel Chair) and navigate through Volcano Adventure Park, a set of narrower trails snaking through the woods. When it’s time for a coffee or a beer, the renovated Sunrise Lodge will now offer a little more space and a lot better flow for skiers and riders. The whole building was gutted down to the studs and now there’s an updated kitchen, new restrooms, an espresso stand and an expansion of the deck area for the Sun Bar. “The F & B staff are being a little mysterious about the new menu,” Jackson said. “But it will be more palatable than the typical burger, French fry and chicken strips. The menu is one of the biggest pieces of feedback we’ve been getting about this lodge over the years.” Leigh Capozzi, director of brand and communications, believes these

improvements to the lodge—and the 5 acres of new terrain close by—position Mt. Bachelor to offer the best learning experience in the Pacific Northwest. “Sunrise base area has less weather and is often sunnier, along with more entry-level terrain,” Capozzi said. “It creates more opportunity for progression on those first few days on the snow.” Beginners are still welcome at West Village, where rentals and lessons are also offered. In the coming years, POWDR, the corporation that owns Mt. Bachelor, plans to invest in building a larger lodge next to Sunrise—at which point the entire ski school will likely move over to that side of the mountain, according to Jackson. At the end of the tour of the Woodward Progression Park and the Sunrise Lodge remodel, Jackson paused to snap photos of some old signs, another thing to add to his to do list. The signs direct guests to the rental area and ski shop with icons of ear-muffed stick figures toting lace-up ski boots. “We decided we’re going to move away from the original ‘80s era signage,” he laughed. “This building was built in 1980, and that’s probably when they went up.”

t. Bachelor’s Sunrise Lodge and its nearby lifts and trails have historically functioned as a less-populated alternative to the main entry point at West Village. But this winter, the whole area will be transformed into a beginner-friendly zone open seven days a week, with two new carpet lifts, another chair, newly cut trails and an updated lodge experience catering to those who are just starting out. In years past, there were some gaps in the learning progression, explained Drew Jackson, director of sales and marketing for Mt. Bachelor. What used to be the first step for beginners—riding the Carrousel Chair and gliding down a densely packed open area—is now step four, he said. “The industry as a whole is recognizing that the skier and snowboarder population is aging, and in order to continue to have viable businesses going forward for the long haul we have to continue to find ways to get new people into the sport,” Jackson said. “We’re somewhat challenged to get people to try it out for the first time, but the greater challenge is to get them back for the second, third, fourth and fifth times.”

A Bendite and former U.S. Ski Team member shares his tale of landing a sponsorship—and a spot on the then-budding pro tour

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 7, 2019 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

By Dan Mooney

Editor’s note: Several months ago, Bendite Dan Mooney approached me with his extensive tale of making it to the pro ski racing circuit, back in the days when the pro ski racing circuit was just in its infancy. As a tale that starts and ends here in Bend, I knew it was ideal for our Winter Insider issue. Still, the tale of “Moondog” and his pro ski days was longer than this print edition allows for. So while a portion of the story appears here, we invite you to visit bendsource.com to see the triumphant tale in its entirety!

uthor’s Note: I skied on the world pro ski tour for seven years. Ours was a wild, crazy, nutso lifestyle. To be young, single, traveling the world, ski racing and making money at it was a very special time in my life. TYLER PALMER, I LOVE YOU. Part One: Reluctantly attending U.S. Nationals at Bachelor In late winter of 1972, I was 21 years old. A couple of years earlier I had fought my way onto a spot on the U.S. Ski Team with my sights on the ‘72 Winter Olympics to be held in February of that year in Sapporo, Japan. It was now March, the Olympics had come and gone, and I simply did not make the final cut. “Coach’s decision,” I was told—but that didn’t heal the hurt and frustration I was feeling. I deserved to be on that team. So, I was in Bend, Oregon, for the U.S. national championships being held on Mt. Bachelor and was not feeling very enthusiastic. The next Olympics were four years away. I wondered whether the team would carry me for four more years. There were many fine, younger skiers coming up through the ranks and in the eye of the ski team I would be an old man by 1976. Did I want to commit four more years to an organization that didn’t have much faith in me?

To make matters worse, I was not skiing well, starting to get that sinking feeling that I was at the end of my ski racing career and I saw nothing on the horizon to make me feel differently. At the slalom race at Mt. Bachelor I disqualified on my first run and would not get a second run (in slalom you take two runs and combine your times to determine the winner). We were staying at the Inn at the Seventh Mountain, so I caught a ride down the hill while the rest of the ski team was still racing. I found myself alone in our condo, contemplating my future. I was sipping on a beer, casually thumbing through the latest issue of Ski Racing magazine and not paying particular attention to its contents. Then I turned the page and staring me in the face was a full-page ad promoting the last two pro races of the season, being held the next week in Steamboat Springs and Vail, Colorado. Pro ski racing was in its infancy, having been started a couple years earlier by Bob Beattie, who was best known as being the head coach for the men’s U.S. Ski Team in the 1964 and 1968 Winter Olympics. He was also a commentator for ABC’s “Wide World of Sports” and, along with Frank Gifford, called the 1976 downhill run by Franz Klammer at the Innsbruck Olympics. The pro tour was starting to take off with a completely different format than amateur racing, where one racer goes down one course at a time. The fastest time wins. In the pros there are two identical courses set side by side, 12 feet apart with jumps built into the courses. Racers compete head to head and winners are determined by simple elimination. I said to myself “Ya, pro ski racing, that could be the ticket!” Bob “Beats” Beattie had already recruited some Olympic team members for the tour, including Spider Sabich, Hank Kashiwa and Tyler Palmer. Of the

three, I knew Palmer best. Sabich was the only one of the three that was doing anything on the tour, having won the overall title the year before. In my heart I wasn’t ready to quit ski racing; I just thought there was something bigger in racing for me. I didn’t know what it was, but I was only 21 and I wanted more. Be careful what you wish for. I somehow tracked down Bob Beattie by phone that afternoon. I told him of my intentions to leave the ski team and come to Steamboat. He was quite clear that I was welcome, but I would have to pay $100 to join the Professional Ski Racers Association. And just because I was coming from the ski team, I would be shown no favoritism. I would have to go through all the preliminary qualifying heats before I would be ceded into the money round. That turned out to be four races before I qualified…. Beattie made it perfectly clear that Kashiwa and Palmer, just off the Olympic team, were struggling with the pro format. Beattie and I had met a few times and I knew him enough to know he was giving me the straight story. I thought about it for a few minutes, did the proand-con comparisons, came up with a lot of pros and damn few cons and so it was decided onward and upward to the pros. I had just one small hurdle to overcome. I needed to get to Colorado from Oregon and had about $10 to my name. I figured it was going to take $300 to get to Steamboat, pay the association fees and leave me a little left over for food and beer. The only person I could ask for that type of a loan was my mother, who was born and raised in Germany, prior to and during WWII. She met and married my dad, an American GI, at the end of WWII in 1946. My parents divorced when I was 14 and she was old-school German. I knew that she would want me to go back to school if I left the ski team. Plus, the Vietnam War was in full swing and if I didn’t go back to school, I would lose my student

draft deferment. I knew this was not going to be an easy phone call, so I practiced my story a few times before making the call. We started out exchanging typical pleasantries and I started to bring her up to speed on what I was doing, telling her about the pro tour and how I wanted to go to “Steam….”. That’s as far as I got; I didn’t even get to say “Boat” before hearing an emphatic “NO!” and an ear full about ski racing as a dead-end street and how I need to get back to school before I lose my deferment. She would not let it go. I received a verbal tirade about Vietnam, how the whole “pro ski” thing was a big scam, that I was now 21 and needed to grow up and get serious about my life and that there is no way in hell she was going to loan me a dime to go “traipsing” across the country to this “Oceanboat” place to go ski race. I politely corrected her and said “It is Steamboat.” Then I proposed that she let me go, and if I failed I would make a beeline to Denver and register for spring quarter with plenty of time to not lose my deferment, which was true. There was silence on the other end. I held my breath. Then she said, “Oh ach du liebe (“Oh dear” in English) Danny, you are the wild one in the family.” She always called me Danny. She reluctantly agreed on the condition I pay her back and that if I failed in Steamboat I would go straight to Denver and register for school. In the course of about three hours I transitioned from U.S. Ski Team member to pro ski racer, all because Bob Beattie put that ad in Ski Racing magazine. If I hadn’t seen that ad, this probably wouldn’t have happened. Part Two: Designs on going pro That night in Bend I went around and thanked my coaches and told them my intentions to turn pro. They were all very supportive and wished me luck. Then I went to the condo and sat around with the guys, drinking beer, talking about

FEATURE Willis A. Wood

places we’ve been and people we’ve met. We were our own little band of brothers. We all had each other’s back. When they found out I didn’t have enough money for my bus ticket to Reno, they passed the hat and got me enough to get me there. Early the next morning my good buddy Ken Corrock drove me to the bus station. We shook hands, he hugged me, wished me luck and I got on the bus to Reno, Reno to Salt Lake and then Salt Lake to Steamboat. I arrived in Steamboat on Wednesday afternoon, got signed up and was told my first round of qualifiers was Thursday morning. In pro racing you don’t get to the money round until you’re down to 16 racers, and there are over 100 skiers trying to make it to the group of 16. You have eliminations, and when you’re just starting out, you start at the bottom. Funny thing happened when I got to Steamboat: my skiing just clicked. I was on FIRE. The first round I had the fastest time. I had a Thursday afternoon qualifying and I won that race, too. People started to notice, including Beattie. He came up to me after the second qualifying round and said that I was looking really good. I started to think this pro racing thing might just work. On Friday it gets tougher. It’s called the “Friday Afternoon Club.” At this point it was down to 50 skiers trying to qualify for those 16 spots. The 16 that move on join another 16 top seated skiers from previous races for Saturday morning qualifying. On Saturday and Sunday morning those 32 skiers race for a final 16 spots. If you make it through that you’re finally in the money round. I aced the Friday qualifying and “Oh, ach du liebe,” made the round of 16. I was in the money round after four qualifying races. I was skiing really, really well. All of a sudden, ski racing was fun again. I was hanging with my friend Tyler Palmer and everything was clicking.

Pro races consist of two events, a Giant Slalom on Saturday and a Slalom on Sunday. On Saturday in the Giant Slalom I made it to the quarter finals. On Sunday I did even better and made it all the way to the semi-finals. In two days, I made about $1,500. I went to Vail, Colorado, the next week and made another $500. Two thousand dollars in two weeks! I was in heaven, had done what I wanted to do, made a name for myself at the pro level and had momentum going into the next year. All the years I was on the ski team I skied on K2 brand skis, which I used in those two pro races. So, I felt my best chance for a sponsor the next year would be K2. I paid my mom back the $300, never went back to college, ended up in the first lottery for the draft and got a high number—almost 300—which kept me out of the military. After the Vail race, Palmer and I decided to splurge. We flew to the Bahamas for two weeks— first class of course. Part Three: Pain, Torture, Agony The season was over, I had made a mark and was pumped for the next year. Solid finishes in the last two pro races gave me a good track record and a good chance at a sponsorship for the next year. I went back to Squaw Valley for the summer. I had grown up there and had a lot of friends who were involved with ski racing. One was Warren Gibson, coach for the Squaw Valley junior ski team who had put together an amazing summer training program. I decided my best course of action was to stay in Squaw, concentrate on getting sponsored and work out with Gibson and his ski team, all of whom were in high school. My idea of summer training was a little jogging, a little soccer, a few hikes and maybe work up a civilized sweat once in a while. Gibson had a

Gibson was a great and smart coach. After he heard my protest he blew his whistle and had everyone take five. He came jogging over to me, clipboard and all, and like a father who is about to have a serious talk with his son, put his arm over my shoulder and said, “walk with me.” Editor’s note: Mooney’s tale continues with the lows of training, an added low of being denied a coveted sponsorship, and eventually, a shot at racing as a Rossignol-sponsored skier. Check out bendsource. com for the full story—but to tide you over, here’s a sneak peek at the end of the tale: After the podium Gerarde Rubuox came up to me and said, “Meet me at my hotel room around 5.” So at 5 pm, I knocked on his door. He welcomed me in and had me sit down. Then he handed me a contract and says, “Read this over and if you’re in agreement then sign it.” On it, it says, “Rossignol Ski Company is to pay Dan Mooney $15,000 to race on the ‘72-‘73 world pro ski tour. Rossignol will pay all travel expenses, will provide all equipment and clothing…” As I was reading this, I couldn’t help but to flash back to the condo in Bend where this whole crazy roller coaster ride began, and the confluence of events that had to occur for me to get me to this moment. I just kind of started shaking my head. Then Rubuox said, “Is there a problem, you are shaking your head?” “Oh, no, no, there is no problem, I was just thinking… oh never mind, Gerarde, there is no problem at all…” So, I took a deep breath, picked up the pen, and as I signed my name I had only one thought, “Moondog, you’re going to the show.” Dedicated to the memory of Bob Beattie.

completely different version of what summer training should be. First, he got me into cycling. In 1972, cycling was not nearly as popular as it is today, so this was new for me. We found a really nice, used 10-speed and every morning at 7am we rode from Squaw Valley to Truckee High School. I learned about the Peloton (the group), slipstreaming, riding in a group, having your front tire inches from the person in front of your back tire, proper shifting of gears and riding hard, all out. When we got to Truckee, we would drop the ones that had school and ride back to Squaw, hard! This was about 30 miles round trip. Gibson considered this simply a morning warm-up. Around 2 in the afternoon, we would drive to Truckee High where Gibson made a deal with the school to use their universal weight machines. This consisted of 10 different stations where you would do a specific exercise. We would do 10 reps at each station. But before we did weights, we did a 5-mile run, which allegedly was our “afternoon warm up.” Then we walked down to the football and track field where Gibson informed us that on Monday and Wednesday we would do weights and on Tuesday and Thursdays we would do sprints. Then he told us the sprints would consists of 10 440s (a 440 is a full lap around the track), to be followed by 10 220s (a half a lap around the track) with a 1-minute rest period between laps. If you didn’t complete your lap in the allotted time, you would do a bonus lap. Well, I had finally heard enough and politely interrupted him, saying, “What the f..., Gibson?! I want to make it to next winter. You have us riding 30 miles every morning, then we do a 5-mile run in the afternoon. Any sane person would call it a day after those two alone. But now you’re going to throw in the sprints and weight lifting. No one is going to do this under your ridiculous guidelines.”

24 Hours in Bend

You’re passing through Bend for a day and it’s the middle of winter—what do you do? By Isaac Biehl

Food & Drink Bend Ale Trail No matter the time of year, Bend’s breweries are always open. Visitors can stop at Visit Bend and grab a free passport for the Bend Ale Trail and get the passport stamped at 10 of the 18 breweries listed on the trail to complete. In November, it earns participants a trophy! Fire pits & food trucks Make no mistake, food truck lots stay open on the coldest days of winter.

NateWyeth/Visit Bend

Places like On Tap and The Bite in Tumalo have heated indoor seating and large fire pits outside. The Lot cranks up the outdoor heaters and heated benches to keep everyone warm. Smith Rock Hiking is more limited in winter, but Smith Rock State Park may be even better this time of year. Fewer crowds, less heat, and spectacular vistas make the Misery Ridge Trail not so miserable. Shorter and easier options like the Rim Trail also offer the chance to walk along the Crooked River and attempt to spot the local wildlife. Camping is available year-round. Mt. Bachelor Mt. Bachelor is one of the reasons skiers come to Bend in winter. For beginners, it’s a chance to learn the difference between downhill and Nordic, and to find out if snowboarding is as gnarly as it looks. Those who aren’t skiers or snowboarders can try tubing, snowshoeing or even dog sledding! Wanoga Sno Park Wanoga offers a huge, steep hill right near the parking lot that screams, “Slide down me!” Feel like Chevy Chase in "Christmas Vacation" as people of all ages yell with nervous glee sledding down the hill at full speed.

If it's snowing, a stroll through beautiful downtown Bend might be in order.

Hot Pools at McMenamins What better way to spend a cold winter day than in a hot pool? At McMenamins, a beautifully crafted Turkish-style hot pool has stained glass windows depicting the sun, the moon and St. Francis’ compassion for animals. The shimmering turquoise tiles give the pool an opulent air and the fountain’s water spouting lions and open ceiling will have soakers truly feeling like royalty. High Desert Museum At the High Desert Museum, the story of Central Oregon’s climate is told through art, Native American

history, science, wildlife and more. With between nine and 12 rotating exhibits, the museum constantly changes and provides new, innovative ways to educate the public.

Running In Winter

World champ Max King offers cold-season advice on what to remember, what to look for and where to go By Isaac Biehl

Max King

ith an abundance of easily accessible trails, Central Oregon is a haven for trail runners of all levels. For most of the year runners can hit just about anywhere without having to deal with harsh conditions—but as the always unpredictable winter begins to roll in, a shift in running strategy is necessary to continue through the end of the year. FootZone ambassador and world champion mountain and ultra-runner— and local—Max King offered some helpful advice on how to keep up the miles through the coming months; so don’t go hiding those running shoes in the closet just yet. “Trail runners are pretty lucky in Central Oregon because even if there’s snow on the ground in the mountains we can usually find a clear patch of dirt to run on out east of town,” King tells the Source. “Sometimes though we’ll get a blanket of snow over everything and then it can be a bit more treacherous.” When getting ready to head out for a winter run King says it’s important to keep track of the conditions, especially if snow is falling at higher elevations.

Winter running in Central Oregon can be exhilarating—but you need to be properly prepared.

The conditions will affect what shoes to wear, how warm to dress and how long to be out on the trail. “If there are a couple of inches of snow, a loop that usually takes 40 minutes may take well over an hour,” says King. “Getting a small injury this time of year can be life threatening if you’re not able to run back to the trailhead. Make sure you prepare by letting someone know where you’re going and how long

you expect to be. Carry a cell phone with you so you can call for help.” Winter conditions also call for different gear. When there’s some snow on the trail or potential for ice, King likes to have metal traction on the bottom of his shoes, which can come in the form of sheet metal screws, ice spikes or shoes with spikes built in. Waterproof shoes are also an excellent have for winter running to keep feet dry and toes warm. If

the snow is more than a few inches deep, ankle gaiters can be huge. Another thing to remember: layering. King says at the start of a run, runners should feel a bit chilled, because as you run the body will begin to warm up. Feeling too comfortable at the start is a recipe for overheating—and if the snow is anything over a few inches, King says then it’s time to put skis on as to avoid potential ankle twists and other hazards. “I don’t mind running in the cold weather, but what I really hate are cold fingers and toes, so I’m really particular about my glove choice and I put a lot of thought into which gloves I put on. For me, gloves are my most important clothing item.” For people looking to get more into winter running, King recommends starting out on the east side of town and going on a snow-free trail. He mentions the Badlands, Horse Butte or Smith Rock trails as good places to start. “Once you’ve got that dialed in then head out to Shevlin Park or the Deschutes River Trail just after a small dusting of snow,” adds King. “This will help you be able to see rocks and minimize the potential for ice on the trail.”

hose who live in Bend have a pretty good grasp on what to do and when to do it. But when friends or family come to town for a brief stop, locals want to make sure their peeps have the best time possible in their limited stay. The same can be said for the many people who pass through here for the season at Mt. Bachelor, or are maybe just living the van life and coming through for some Central Oregon adventures. In honor of the Winter Insider issue, we wanted to know: if you’re passing through in the middle of winter, what do you do? We surveyed Joshua Savage, author of the 2019 book, “100 Things to Do In Bend, Oregon, Before You Die,” to get his take on some prime winter spots. This is 24 Hours in Bend—Winter Insider edition.

A look back at the best in music from the month of October

Another month has gone by and we’re already in November! Time flies when you’re writing about music. In October we had a variety of things happen—Kanye West put out an album that more or less fell flat, My Chemical Romance announced a reunion show for the ages and Frank Ocean has come out of the woodwork with new music. I can only imagine that as we inch toward the end of 2019 things will only get more exciting. Here’s a look back at a few albums and songs that left their mark from the month of October with this installment of Source Material. REGIONAL FIND:

“Blue Guts” – Dogheart Portland’s Dogheart has been on the scene for five years, creating finely tuned soft rock. Its latest project, “Blue Guts,” is a great listen to pair with the leaves changing color and the temperature seemingly getting colder and colder. The project is around 15 minutes of moody, touching and reflective songs that relax the atmosphere around you. You don’t need to work at listening to “Blue Guts”—it simply just plays.

NATIONAL BEATS:

“You Deserve Love” – White Reaper Originally formed in Louisville, Kentucky, the dudes of White Reaper are a bright spot in the world of rock music. While they sound incredibly fresh, it really wouldn’t be hard to argue that White Reaper would be successful 20, 30 or even 40 years ago. “You Deserve Love” is filled with dreamy synths and guitar riffs that give the album an incredibly fun edge—it sounds like the soundtrack to a perfectly spent Saturday. If this is a band you haven’t tipped yourself off to yet, it’s time to start cranking White Reaper at high volumes. “Head in the Clouds II” – 88rising 88rising is a collective—or better yet, a family of artists signed to the label of the same name. Artists involved include Rich Brian, Joji, the Higher Brothers, Lexie Liu, Keith Ape, Niki and more. “Head in the clouds II” is like golden velvet—smooth and bright R&B that pairs best in the glow of sunset. It’s awesome to hear each artist have standout moments on the album: Niki’s vocal performance on “Indigo,” Joji trading off with Swae Lee on “Walking” and Rich Brian totally in his bag on “2 the Face.” If anything, this album is a testament to growth and what the members of 88rising are working toward becoming—and it furthermore sheds a light on Asian hip-hop and pop artists.

A Saturday Sermon Celebrating the life and works of Neil Young

Neil Young performs at a Crosby Stills & Nash concert in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

n Nov. 9, 12 acts will take over Worthy Brewing to deliver a sermon in the form of Neil Young’s greatest hits. Appropriately titled Church of Neil, the evening serves as a celebration of the life and musical works of Young, and also happens to fall on his birthday. These local musicians will tackle a range of covers from every corner of Young’s vast discography. The night’s performers include Sleepless Truckers, Tone Red, John Shipe of The Renegade Saints, Doc Ryan and other secret, special guests. The night is much bigger than just the music, though. “It’s also a celebration of the Neil ethos,” says Mark Ransom, one of the many brains behind Church of Neil. “Even if you don’t like his music, he’s really an activist.” The celebration started about 15 years ago through Church of Neil creator Andy Fecteau. In 2004 his wife pointed out that Young’s birthday was coming up on the weekend—so they held a party with friends and played his music all night. Then the next year rolled around and they got some local musicians involved. The rest is history. “It’s really taken on a life of its own,” says Fecteau. There are plenty of reasons to like Neil Young’s music. He’s an icon that has been able to stand the test of time.

But you don’t have to like him to enjoy this celebration—just ask Ransom. “At first I wasn’t a fan. It was like 14 years ago when I opened myself to it,” he recalls “Then I started realizing, Neil is really a master at telling stories lyrically and using emotion in his music.” Fecteau highlights similar reasons as to what makes Young’s music so strong. “For most people his songs speak to a common life experience,” he tells the Source. “That’s why he’s kind of weathered the storm as a musician and a rock star.” To match Young’s ethos of doing right in the world, funds raised at Church of Neil go directly to Rise Up International, the Bend Roots’ education project. The organization works with schools in the area to help hire musicians as teachers for arts programming. So not only does Church of Neil celebrate the life of Young, but it also celebrates the creation of great music in the community. “A circle of love is what I call it,” says Fecteau. “It gives musicians living wage work and it’s a really important outlet for kids—especially if they’re more artistic in nature.” Church of Neil

Winter Insider Adventure: Exploring unchartered territory on a snowy night

By Cayla Clark generous amount of Hazelnut Espresso Vodka from Bend Distillery). Generally speaking, groups range from four to 14 people, though more can be accommodated for special events. Sometimes additional, non-paying guests join in on the fun. Braun shared that some of the most incredible experiences she’s had on the tours involved surprise visits from rare wildlife. “We see tracks and actual wildlife,” she shared. Once, her tour group had the pleasure of spotting a Sierra Nevada red fox, believed to be one of the most endangered mammals in North America, according to the U.S. Forest Service. Most snow-loving Bendites are familiar with the Pine Marten Lodge, one of Mt. Bachelor’s sunset dining spots. A member of the weasel family, roughly the size of a cat and covered in light and dark brown fur, the rare pine marten is typically only spotted in Europe. One clear night several winters ago, as the group sat in silence around the bonfire, admiring the stars, a pine marten emerged from the shadows to join them. “It was a pretty cool little critter,” Braun remarked. Aside from the opportunity to see rare wildlife, Braun noted that the magic of being alone and isolated— exploring uncharted territory in the dead of night—is an experience truly unlike any other. “One of my favorite parts of the job is seeing the sense of goofiness—of playfulness—that people feel when they’re exploring uncharted territory. When

Tour-goers take a break from snowshoeing to admire the vast beauty around them.

they’re the first people to walk through fresh powder.” Guests from all over the country join in on the tours, Braun said, leading to a balanced mix of locals and tourists—some who have never seen snow. “It’s almost like a return to childhood,” she said. “It’s a very unique feeling. It’s like being in a different world.” An educational and awe-inspiring snowshoe tour and secluded bonfire undeniably make for an unforgettable evening.

From Cindercone to Mud Lake

n early fall, Cindercone Clay Center quietly closed after 17 years as one of Bend’s first and longest-running shared art studios. Its founder, Chad Fox (think Boneyard beer steins), is pursuing a new endeavor and returning to the simpler life of being a studio artist—allowing himself the joy of focusing on his own craft while working alongside his brothers in their family business, Snowfox Equipment. Normally, a closure of studio space would mark a devastating blow to the local art community—but studio member

Tours begin at the end of November and go through late April, weather permitting.

Studio member Mike Hoffman, maker of hand-thrown, functional stoneware, in his studio.

Alicia Renner, the woman behind Howl Attire and proprietor of The Northwest Trading Post, has stepped up to keep the studios open. Revamping the space and rebranding as Mud Lake Studios, Renner has big plans for the collective’s future. She’s starting with interior updates, as

funding allows, and has hosted a handful of events, including Kaycee Anseth’s, “In Marrow” exhibit. “It was sad when Chad left but I didn’t want that to mean that the studios, or my own business, would have to leave also,” Renner said. “My aim is to respect the

original vision of having a space with community worktables, kilns and wheels, shelf space—everything a potter would need— including classes, while also opening it up to other mediums and helping it continue to evolve. We’re even working on figuring out an artist residency program.” Originally Cindercone was dedicated to clay workers. Now, as Mud Lake, occupants in the 16 studios range from potters and sculptors to painters and jewelry designers. There’s even a vintage shop, Peaces by Lauren, nestled into studio member Lauren Cooley’s space. Mud Lake Studios will also be the cornerstone of Bend’s beloved Craft-O!

or the past 26 years, Wanderlust Tours has offered people in Bend, Sunriver and Sisters the opportunity to explore untraversed territory in Central Oregon. While the company offers a slew of tour opportunities, from volcanoes to craft beverage tours, one of the most unique and awe-inspiring experiences is the Snowshoe and Bonfire Tour—a part of the Wanderlust itinerary since day one. During the winter, the most exciting after-work plans typically consist of dinner and a movie. Courtney Braun, sales manager and naturalist guide for the past eight years, considers the nighttime snowshoe tours an ideal opportunity for people to get out and try something different. “Few things compare to the peacefulness of the forest,” she reflected. The night tours take about four hours total, with over two hours out on the snow. “We don’t take any trails, so we forge our own paths out on the snow,” Braun explained. “We do this based on the ability and the desires of the group. I would say an average trip is between 2 and 3 miles.” The same level of accommodation goes for time spent at the bonfire. While standard “fire time” is around 30 minutes, it depends on how the group is feeling. “If the vibe is more time snowshoeing, less time fire pitting... we can accommodate that!” Once adventurers reach the bonfire, they’re rewarded with dessert from Sparrow Bakery and spiked hot cocoa (spiked with a

Vegan Eater, Non-Vegan World

LITTLE BITES By Nicole Vulcan

Keely Damara

A simple guide to eating out with a plant-based lifestyle

By Angela Moore

Monkless Opens its New Brasserie

As more diners move closer to a plant-based lifestyle, some restaurants are expanding and adapting their menus.

eing vegan can certainly have its own set of challenges. For example: what grass do you eat when there is snow on the ground? Kidding kidding…as a longtime eater and notso-longtime vegan, I’m well aware of the vast amounts of vegan variety there is out there, and the options seem to be getting tastier every day. Unfortunately, not all locations have jumped on board—and you can’t always be the one to pick where the boss wants lunch or where your new Hinge date prefers happy hour. So, while being vegan in a non-vegan world seems difficult enough, here are a few ways to get around eating out while keeping your preferences intact and the restaurant staff (reasonably) sane. Note: I’m not encouraging you modify each menu at every place you decide to have breakfast, lunch and dinner. Not every location is designed to suit your needs, nor should they. These basic tips are merely a guide for being able to attend gatherings such as birthday parties, or when a few of your friends want to grab dinner. Any food allergy can also be used as a substitution for the word “vegan,” so if you have celiac disease, consider these words of wisdom as well. Having been in the service industry for over two decades and having eaten in

restaurants for over three, I can tell you there is a right and wrong way to go about asking for what you want— and yes, there is such thing as a stupid question. Do your research Maybe the place that your in-laws read about on Visit Bend’s website and haven’t shut up about since they got here already offers vegan options; but also, maybe not. The only way to really know is to do some footwork and check out the menu. Its 2019. The internet exists. It’s worth a Google. Call ahead of time If you’re confused about the menu or you just have clarifying questions about certain dishes, it’s better to ask ahead of time instead of while you’re staring at a dimly lit server who gets paid minimum wage—and who just came back from his third trip to the kitchen during the dinner rush to ask if there is egg in the tempura batter. The waitstaff and the kitchen staff may work in the same building, but that’s about as close as they get. Just assume that anyone who knows the wine list doesn’t know offhand if they use butter or margarine in the veggie mix. Call ahead of time during non-rush hours, greet them like a decent human

being and then state why you’re calling. Example: “Hello, I will be dining with friends/relatives/fellow gang members at 6pm tonight and was wondering if you had a few minutes to answer some questions I had about your menu.” Since you’ve taken my advice and researched a few items, you already have some questions ready. If for some reason you like to go in like a blindfolded man swinging and the menu is small, then simply ask what items on their menu can be modified to be vegan, if any. Ask for options Truly, the best way to get your favorite eatery to offer more vegan options is to just ask them. Contact a business by finding them online—whether it be through Yelp, its social media or web page, damn near every owner or manager will be accessible. Be sure to (like anything in life) ask nicely. Let them know that you wish to visit their business more often, but are limited due to the menu. While many eateries are recognizing veganism as a growing group, they’re not at all obligated or required to follow your suggestions. So always be polite and kind. After all, you catch more flies with honey…or the vegan version: you attract more flies with agave.

Earlier this year, Monkless Belgian Ales announced it had signed a lease on the space formerly occupied by Craft Kitchen and Brewery, overlooking the Deschutes River. Now, the new Brasserie by Monkless opened its doors Oct. 30. Monkless has hired a Michelin startrained chef from San Francisco to head up its kitchen, offering a menu that includes Belgian-inspired eats such as mussels platters, Belgian frites twice fried in duck fat, sausage samplers, schnitzel, spaetzle and much more. The space also offers a full bar and specialty cocktails, on top of Monkless’ Belgian-style draft beers and flights. The Brasserie, decked out with a sumptuous wood-and-antique décor, is open every day from 11am to 10pm.

The owners of the new bar, now open in Tin Pan Alley, have transformed the space formerly occupied by Lone Pine Coffee Roasters into a lavish space that feels like a hidden speakeasy. Named after the liquor-drinking, chain-smoking Mayan saint, San Simón, the space was opened by two brothers from Wisconsin (really nice guys who let us tap their power for a Best of Central Oregon shoot outside their space this summer). On top of delightful cocktails, you’ll find a shrine for San Simón himself inside the bar. San Simón

Bend Runs on Beer

Ale Fest participants pour up samples for thirsty Bend locals.

end may be a small city, but its cup certainly runneth over with a wide range of local craft brews. By last count, Bend is home to a whopping 22 breweries. On Saturday, Northwest Crossing will be occupied by ale aficionados, pouring a total of 40 favorite and new-to-the-scene beers as part of the 3rd annual Bend Ale Festival. Beers that appeal to every palate will be available, from ever-popular Hazy IPAs to imperial porters and chocolate milk stouts. The festival highlights, according to event organizer Angela Korish, include tasty new rarities from the Ale Apothecary, Silver Moon’s “Xul” and 10 Barrel’s “Cherry Cinnamon Crush.” “Xul” is a rich Mexican stout, brewed with cacao nibs, Madagascar vanilla, Ceylon cinnamon, guajillo (a popular Mexican chili) and pasilla peppers. 10 Barrel’s “Cherry Cinnamon Crush” is one of the local brewery’s well-loved sours, drawing its unique sweet-and-sour flavor profile from Montmorency tart cherries, a hint of cinnamon and a light Berliner base. These are merely two of 40 interesting beers that will be available for naught but a mere drink token. The festival will also feature live music by Erin Cole Baker, Bill Powers and Chris Baron – three touring singer-songwriters, each unique in sound and style. What’s beer and music without tacos and pizza? The El Sancho food

truck will be serving up its locally loved cuisine, while Portland-based Dough on the Go be slangin’ cheesy pies and slices. Getting everything together and running smoothly is no small task, as reported by Korish. “Since the event is in conjunction with the Bend Ale Run, planning began last year,” she explained. “We need a year to ensure we can efficiently plan with the City of Bend on street closures and the overall approval process in order to lock down the date,” Korish said. “Our running community is wonderful. Many like to plan their race schedules a year or months in advance.” Entry is free but for $20, attendees get a commemorative pint glass and 10 tokens, good for one tasting apiece. Order in advance and get the same deal for $5 less. The event doubles as the finish line for Bend’s Annual Ale Run, a half marathon that begins just north of Summit High School and takes a series of scenic roadways. A portion of registration proceeds go to Oregon Adaptive Sports. Those who participate in the Bend Ale Run will receive a pint glass and four tokens. Bend Ale Festival

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic ABOMINABLE: You know what I think is abominable? That this is the third cartoon in the last year about The Abominable Snowman/ Sasquatch. While I’m sure “Abominable” is probably pretty cute, “The Missing Link” was a downright classic from Portland’s Laika animation studio. Support the movie that did it first! Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX ARCTIC DOGS: Wait, are you telling me this

painfully generic and stupid-looking cartoon has Jeremy Renner singing five different songs? Now, I realize it might be hard to kill a movie with fire, but it seems worth it to try, doesn’t it? This mustn’t be allowed to get free. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

BLACK AND BLUE: A very generic-looking action

drama about dirty cops and a black rookie caught up in some dangerous shenanigans. Naomie Harris has deserved a starring role since “28 Days Later,” so hopefully this will elevate her into better and bigger movies. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

COUNTDOWN: It has arrived. Finally, in 2019 we

have a movie about a killer app! And no, I don’t mean a really cool one, I mean one that tells people when they’re going to die and then speeds up the process. This looks like trash, but horror movies are slim pickings lately so proceed at your own risk. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

This holiday season, make a charitable donation through the Source Weekly’s CentralOregonGives.org. • 100% of your donation will go directly to the local nonprofit of your choice. • You know your donation will be used to support YOUR community. • AND you’ll receive a special thank you offer from one of our sponsors. • A $25K Gift will go to the nonprofit who raises the most funds

Donate online at CentralOregonGives.org Online giving will begin on Nov 15th Every donation receives a special offer from one of our local sponsors:

DOCTOR SLEEP: Remember, you read it here first, folks; the master of horror has gone a little soft. This Stephen King book from 2013 is a sequel to “The Shining,” but lacks the scary punches. Ewan McGegor is insiring as the grown-up Danny, but what about those twins?! See full review on p31. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Odem Theater Pub DOWNTON ABBEY: The show ended with enough dangling threads to leave the possibility of a movie open and here it is. All the characters we know and love have returned, making this an all-star… wait a second. I just figured it out. This is like “The Avengers” for people who like the aristocracy. I get it now. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX GEMINI MAN: 50-year-old Will Smith vs. 20-year-old clone Will Smith from visionary director Ang Lee seems like a slam dunk, but with a terrible script and awkward special effects, the movie is a dull mishmash of action movie cliches. This is the kind of movie that Redbox was invented for. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX GLORIA BELL: Julianne Moore gives one of her finest performances as a woman who finds love at a time when she was searching for anything but something serious. A surprising and heartfelt little movie. Odem Theater Pub GREENER GRASS: A darkly hilarious and surreal

trip through a demented and nightmarish suburbia where children change into dogs and all the adults have braces. If you like David Lynch, this movie will scratch that itch while giving you a whole mess of uncomfortable chuckles. Tin Pan Theater

HARRIET: It only took 150+ years to make a movie

about Harriet Tubman—which goes to show you that white guilt works very slowly. Luckily the remarkable Cynthia Erivo plays Tubman with unforgettable grace. At least the film is finally here, I suppose. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House

And for each donation, you can also be entered to win one of several grand prizes, including a FjallRaven backpack valued at $300!

JOKER: Massively controversial before it was even released, “Joker” takes a run at the origin story for one of pop culture’s biggest villains and gives him a soul. Not deserving of all the bile,

JUDY: Renee Zellweger dives deep into her

portrayal of cinema legend Judy Garland and will most likely be making new shelf space for fistfuls of acting awards. Even when the film becomes somewhat maudlin, Zellweger always remains remarkable. Odem Theater Pub

MALEFICENT: MISTRESS OF EVIL: I know it’s cool to make fun of these movies, but Angelina Jolie is putting in the work to give a soul to one of Disney’s most iconic villains, and the visuals are some of the craziest and eye-popping ever put to film, so maybe popular opinion will change. These should be the high watermark going forward for Disney’s live action movies. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

MOTHERLESS BROOKLYN: Getting this movie made

has been Edward Norton’s passion project since 1999, which is really bizarre because he basically changed everything from the beloved book. Still, Norton playing a private eye with Tourette’s in the 1950s is one hell of a premise, and the film is actually quite stunning to look at. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

PAVAROTTI: Even if you don’t know opera, you’ve probably heard the name Pavarotti, the most famous tenor of all time. He makes everything sound good. He’s like the Barry White of opera. This is a documentary about his life. I bet he sings in it. Odem Theater Pub TERMINATOR: DARK FATE: So, this is easily the best “Terminator” movie since the second one, but that’s not saying a whole bunch since the last few have been hot, recycled trash water. It’s nice to have Linda Hamilton back, but the movie just feels like something that would have been better in the 1990s. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema, Odem Theater Pub THE ADDAMS FAMILY: Oscar Isaac was born to play Gomez Addams in a live action movie, but an animated one will have to do. This should be a visually stunning bit of weirdness if they keep things dark enough to see how creepy the Addams family really is. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE CURRENT WAR: The historical battle

between Thomas Edison, George Westinghouse and Nikola Tesla over the future of electricity has finally made it to screen after Weinstein (the producer) got ousted. Worth seeing just for the performance of Michael Shannon as Westinghouse. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE LIGHTHOUSE: Thick with atmosphere and intensity, “The Lighthouse” is a disturbingly gorgeous look at the unravelling threads of humanity that come from isolation. Worth seeing on the big screen for the stunning black-and-white cinematography and the amazing performances from Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX WESTERN STARS: A musical documentary about Bruce Springsteen focused on him performing his entire new album “Western Stars.” Well put together but definitely aimed at die hard Springsteen fans only. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

ZOMBIELAND: DOUBLE TAP: As faux-edgy as the original felt, this belated sequel feels like an endless string of dad jokes set to some fancy zombie gore. Not terrible, not good, but somewhere in between lies this lifeless (heh) and inert sequel. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

STREAMING THIS WEEK “HIS DARK MATERIALS” Did the “The Golden Compass” movie depress you and make you feel like the amazing series of books by Phillip Pullman would never get adapted correctly? Me too! And we were wrong! This is the real deal; beautifully and sumptuously told by storytellers who understand and love this world. A truly enchanting series so far.

Shine On You Crazy Diamond SC SCREEN “Doctor Sleep” has ties to the terrifying “The Shining,” but overlooks being scary By Jared Rasic

Photo courtesy of WB

31 VOLUME 23 ISSUE 45 / NOVEMBER 7, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

hat do you get out of horror movies? The joy of a mild little spook that gets the heart racing and puts a smile on the lips? Or is it a love of something a little heavier, like watching something so disturbing that the world doesn’t look as shiny as it did the day before? When Stephen King first started writing, his books coasted a darkness so profound in depth that he could cause readers to look at normal everyday things (like cars, dogs or prom) with a hefty bit of side-eye. The light at the end of the tunnel was just more pitch-black terror, gibbering at you to come closer. After he was hit by a minivan in 1999, his work became more hopeful; fused to an almost Spielbergian sense of wonder and nostalgia. Look at later, warm-hearted books like “11/22/63” or “End of Watch” and compare them to earlier nightmares like “Pet Semetary” or “”The Long Walk.” I hate to say this, but the master of horror has gone a little soft. “Doctor Sleep” is King at his warm and fuzziest. The book from 2013 is a direct sequel to “The Shining,” following the grown-up Danny Torrance, a drunken drifter trying to smother his shine at any cost. He gets tied to a sweet young girl named Abra, who’s being hunted by a group of psychic vampires called the True Knot, who feed off of the shine of children. Current horror wunderkind Mike Flanagan has tackled King before with his adaptation of “Gerald’s Game”— directing something that felt like King, but with loftier literary ambitions than Shirley Jackson’s “The Haunting of Hill House.” With his adaptation of “Doctor

Not too scary but awesome to look at.

Sleep” he manages to fix every issue I had with the book, while still falling prey to a few of its pitfalls. First of all, many props to Flanagan for even attempting to adapt this book, since Kubrick’s film version of “The Shining” is considered to be one of the finest horror movies of all time. It’s also a movie of which Stephen King is not a big fan. See, “Doctor Sleep” is obviously a sequel to the book, “The Shining,” which is very different from the film— including a very different ending. Flanagan impressively manages to make a movie that serves as a sequel to King’s book, but also exists in the same universe as the iconic movie. Flanagan

and team also lovingly and painstakingly re-create the Overlook Hotel; plus, Ewan McGregor is an instantly compelling grown-up version of Danny. Rebecca Ferguson brings to life the chillingly evil villain Rose the Hat. As beautiful as the movie is to look at and as entertaining as it is from start to finish, “Doctor Sleep” shares the same fatal flaw as the book: it’s just not scary. It’s too logical and too safe. Kubrick’s film (and King’s original book) carried an otherworldly madness into the Overlook, but in “Doctor Sleep” the hotel is just a plot point treated like any old haunted house. Don’t get me wrong: I really like several of King’s newer books

(especially the little-read 2014 masterpiece, “Revival”), but they don’t hold a candle in the fear department to his earlier work. “Doctor Sleep” (the book and movie) will be remembered as a solid but unremarkable sequel to “The Shining” from one of the greatest horror writers of our time. If what you’re after is a mild spook and a few laughs, then look no further, but if you like your dread existential and disturbing, just rewatch “Midsommar” like I did. Doctor Sleep

Basecamp: Maupin/Dufur GO HERE By Nicole Vulcan

Gravel cycling at lower elevation, and in warmer temps

By Linda English

VOLUME 23 ISSUE 45 / NOVEMBER 7, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

all gravel cycling can be a tad tricky: where exactly does the snow start and end? Rather than taking chances in Bend, here’s a better idea: head to the Maupin, Dufur, Tygh Valley area and enjoy the lower elevation. Locals say the daily temps are 5 to 15 degrees warmer than the rest of the region. While that doesn’t mean riders can plug in the blender to mix up margaritas: it does mean it will be warm enough to crank through miles on a bicycle. The town of Maupin is famous for summer rafting and fishing on the Deschutes River. But fall and spring mean all “of the tourists covered in oil” have migrated south for the winter. Maupin is an easy hour-and-40-minute drive north from Bend and is on the dry side of Mt. Hood—which means majestic mountain views. It’s an agricultural town, population roughly 500, with a tourist friendly spin: good camping, good places to eat and nice lodging and enough history to make it interesting. It also has birdwatching: people have spotted over 260 types of birds in the Maupin area with many hanging out year-round. And the nearby towns of Dufur and Tygh Valley are both fun to add into riding adventures. Plus, there’s the crown jewel of the area: White River Falls State Park alone is well worth the trip; water from the White River plunges 90 feet off a basalt shelf to put on quite a show. The gravel cycling is a terrific blend, with a mix of “lung sucking” climbs to more moderate rolling hills. The vast openness means easy viewing for amazing rock formations, lovely ranches and the towering Mt Hood.

Get your stones on with Bend Curling.

Bend Curling Club Bonspiel Kevin English from Dirty Freehub is off for a spin on the Mack Canyon route.

Exactly where should you go to ride your gravel bike? At Dirty Freehub, we’ve pulled together four fivestar gravel bicycle routes that start in Maupin or in neighboring Dufur or Tygh Valley. We recommend a long weekend in Maupin; give it a spin and let us know what you think.

Macks Canyon: The route clings to the Deschutes River, with amazing wildlife viewing. This is a gravel road with a smidge of pavement that’s an out and back. The route is 34 miles with 950 feet of climbing. Or try the extended Big Mack version; 90 miles and 6,200 feet of climbing. Starts in Maupin.

White River Loop: Big mountain views with farmland in the foreground and the amazing White River Falls. A moderate gravel loop of 50 miles with 3,100 feet of climbing. Or try the White River Loop-Wamic Extension version, which is 68 miles and 4,200 feet of climbing. Starts in Maupin.

Dufur and Friend: The route starts in the town of Dufur and rolls through awesome views of Mt. Hood, rolling farmland and over to the ghost town of Friend. The route is 64 miles and 3,800 feet of climbing. Or start in Tygh Valley and turn it into a 35-mile loop with 2,800 feet of gain.

Courtesy Linda English

Tygh My Shoes: The route starts outside of Tygh Valley and cuts through the White River Wildlife Area on an adventurous gravel road. It’s a lovely combination of farmland, woods and big views. The route is 30 miles and 2,800 feet of climbing.

For those looking to get into a winter-related sport that doesn’t involve shusshing down a mountain, curling may be the answer. The Bend Curling Club is inviting participants to its upcoming Bonspiel—the term curlers use for “tournament.” Teams of four play four matches Friday and Saturday, with a final round Sunday morning. “Bonspiels are a great way to curl a lot in a short time,” Bend Curling Club president Jason Burge told the Source. “Typically they are competitive but still remain fun.” While club members say the general aim of hosting the Bonspiel is to grow the Bend Curling Club, the longer-range goal is to raise enough funds to find ice dedicated just for curling. Hockey—another sport played on the ice at The Pavilion, where the curling club plays, tends to cut up the ice—whereas curling ideally requires a smoother sheet of ice to allow the curling “stones” to glide easier across the surface. Being the only public ice in Bend, The Pavilion is, right now, the de facto home of all things ice sports. “We are always looking at ways to introduce the sport to more people,” Burge told the Source. “We get lots of emails from people driving by and seeing us and wanting to learn more about the sport.” As of press time, a few spots were still open for this weekend’s event.

Tips for the younger generation of homebuyers

Reduce debt The largest debt hurdle is student loans, followed by credit card debt and car loans. According to CNBC, millennials ages 25 to 34 have an average debt of $42,000.

Bonnie Varner, Principal Broker 541-788-3485 Bonnie.Varner@myluckyhouse.com

It’s important to manage debt properly and approach homeownership with zero or a small, healthy amount of debt, which saavymoney.com states is no more than 10 to 15 percent of one’s monthly take-home pay. To avoid detrimental late payments from showing up on credit reports, make sure deferred student debt payments are in the proper deferred status. Save for a down payment Although the standard down payment for conventional loans is between 10 to 20 percent of the sale price, there are other down payment options or assistance. Most lenders have info on the many different loan products and programs in place to help buyers purchase a home with no or very little money down. Partner with a great Realtor and lender A good real estate agent can help provide thorough education and understanding of the homebuying process. It’s important to know the steps and have a strong grasp of what to expect so the transaction will flow smoothly, and buyers eliminate dealing with unanticipated surprises. Even if a purchase isn’t in the immediate future, it’s wise to build a relationship with a lender. They can help provide guidance and they know which financial steps are most crucial in preparation for making a home purchase. The younger generation of homebuyers will face some challenges, but they don’t have to be barriers to achieving home ownership. Believing in one’s ability and setting clear goals for paying off debts while building a savings will be essential for success on this journey.

he millennial generation is defined as individuals born between 1981 and 1996. This group has represented the largest share of the homebuying market for the past five years in a row, with the 2018 share at 36%, according to Anna DeSimone, housing advocate and author of “Housing Finance 2020.” Even though millennials make up a significant portion of the buyer pool, they’re also choosing to live with their parents, longer or are content being renters—in effect entering into homeownership later than previous generations. This can make it appear that home ownership is not a priority, but research suggests otherwise. “Millennials are even more interested in buying homes than their parents but they’re slower to buy due to a set of financial challenges, which include student loans and credit card debt, as well as an inability to save up for a down payment,” says Farnoosh Torabi, personal finance expert and host of the SoMoney Podcast, which focuses on millennial money issues. Another challenge is rooted in the fact that on average wages have been stagnant over the last 15 years, all while the costs of living, education and housing have skyrocketed. Developing a sensible plan and building a great homebuying team are the keys to successfully reaching homeowner status in a timely manner. The following are a few tips to get started in the right direction.

mation, what you’ve experienced lately has been akin to a fermentation process. It’s as if you’re undergoing a transformation with resemblances to the way that grapes turn into wine or milk becomes yogurt or dough rises before being baked into bread. You may have had to endure some discomfort, which is the case for anything in the midst of substantial change. But I think you’ll ultimately be quite pleased with the results, which I expect will be ready no later than ten days after your birthday—and quite possibly sooner.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Many books have been written about Joan of Arc, a fifteenth-century teenage peasant girl whose improbable ascent to military leadership, under the guidance of her divine visions, was crucial in France’s victory over the English. Among the many miraculous elements of her story was the fact that less than a year before she led troops into battle on horseback, she didn’t know how to ride a horse. She learned by riding around her father’s farm astride his cows. I foresee an equivalent marvel in your future, Capricorn. By this time next year, you will have developed an aptitude that might seem unimaginable now. (P.S. There’s evidence Joan was a Capricorn.) AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The Divine Com-

edy is one of history’s greatest literary works. Its author, Dante Alighieri, was 43 when he began writing the Inferno, the first part of his three-part masterpiece. Up until that time, he had published just one book and a few poems, and had also abandoned work on two unfinished books. Early on in the Inferno, the not-yet-renowned author presents a fictional scene in which he meets with the spirits of antiquity’s most famous authors: Virgil, Homer, Horace, Ovid, and Lucan. Those illustrious five tell Dante he is such an important writer that he ranks sixth, after them, in his excellence. I’m going to encourage you to dare indulging in behavior like Dante’s: to visualize and extol—and yes, even brag about—the virtues and skills that will ultimately be your signature contribution to this world.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The Latin word for sea is mare. Flustra is the calm sea. Undisonus means “resounding with waves.” Caeruleus is the sea’s deep shade of blue, aestus is the tide, and aequoreus means “connected with the sea.” My hope is that as you meditate on these lyrical terms, you’ll be moved to remember the first lakes, rivers, and oceans you ever swam in. You’ll recall your time floating in your mother’s womb and your most joyous immersions in warm baths and hotsprings. Why? It’s a favorable time to seek the healing and rejuvenating powers of primal waters—both metaphorically and literally. ARIES (March 21-April 19): If there are any potential Aries heroes or leaders or saviors out there, the coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to fully bloom and assert your practical magnificence. The lessons you have learned while improvising workable solutions for yourself are ripe to be applied to the riddles that are puzzling your tribe or group or gang. I want to let you know, however, that to achieve maximum effectiveness, you should be willing to do good deeds for people who may not be able to pay you back.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You’re entering a phase of your astrological cycle when it’s crucial

that your receptivity be as robust as possible. To guide you in this delightful but perhaps challenging work, here are good questions for you to pose. 1. Do you know what help and support you need most, and are you brave and forthright enough to ask for it? 2. Is there any part of you, perhaps unconscious, that believes you don’t deserve gifts and blessings? 3. Do you diligently cultivate your capacity to be refreshed and restored? 4. Are you eagerly responsive when life surprises you with learning experiences and inspirations?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “Many people will not be honest because they fear loss of intimacy and togetherness,” writes self-help author Henry Cloud. But the truth, he adds, is that “honesty brings people closer together,” because it “strengthens their identities.” Therein lies the tender paradox: “The more you realize your separate identities, the closer you can become.” Living according to this principle may not be as easy or convenient as being deceptive and covert, but it’s ultimately more gratifying. Henry Cloud concludes, “Telling loved ones what is really on your mind and telling others what you really think is the foundation of love.” CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Maturity is having the ability to escape categorization,” said poet Kenneth Rexroth. That’s the opposite of the conventional wisdom. For many people, the process of growing up and becoming a seasoned adult means trying to fit in, to find one’s category, to be serious and steady and stable. Rexroth, on the other hand, suggested that when you fully ripen into your potentials, you transcend standard definitions; you don’t adhere to others’ expectations; you are uniquely yourself, outside and beyond all pigeonholes and classifications. The coming weeks will be an excellent time for you to practice and cultivate this sacred art. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Is there an event from your past that would be empowering for you to remember in detail? Is there a neglected but still viable dream you could resurrect, thereby energizing your enthusiasm for the future? Are there old allies you’ve lost touch with but who, if you called on them, could provide you with just the boost you need? Is there a familiar pleasure you’ve grown numb to but could reinvigorate by visualizing the original reasons you loved it? The coming weeks will be a favorable time to meditate on these questions. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Catholic saint St. Francis (1181–1226) loved animals and the natural world. According to one folkloric tale, he was once traveling on foot with several companions when they came upon a place where the trees were filled with birds. Francis said, “Wait for me while I go preach to my sisters the birds.” He proceeded to do just that. The birds were an attentive audience for the duration of his sermon, apparently captivated by his tender tones. Seven centuries later, author Rebecca West offered a critique of the bird-whisperer. “Did St. Francis preach to the birds?” she asked. “Whatever for? If he really liked birds he would have done better to preach to the cats.” In the coming weeks, Virgo, I encourage you to do the metaphorical equivalent of preaching to both the birds and the cats. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Every now and then I authorize you Libras to shed your polite, tactful personas and express the angst you sometimes feel but usually hide. That’s now! To egg you on, read this mischievous rant by Libran blogger Clary Gay (claryfightwood.tumblr.com): “We Libras are constantly thinking about how to make everyone else comfortable and happy. There’s not a minute going by when we’re not worrying about radiating a soothing and comforting aura so everyone can have a good time. If a Libra is cranky, it’s because they snapped! Because of some non-Libra who doesn’t appreciate them! If a Libra is mean to people, it’s their own damn fault!”

Homework: “How easy it is to make people happy when you don’t want or need anything from them,” said Gail Godwin. Give an example. FreeWillAstrology.com

SCIENCE ADVICE GODDESS A Labor Of Leave Fade To Bleh I haven’t had sex since my last I’m a very obsessive person. I went

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 7, 2019 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

breakup, and I’m all lusty. I really like this guy, but he seems to have some intimacy issues. We went on a coffee date, and the chemistry made things go further than I would have wanted or expected (making out like crazy in the car). My friends keep reminding me to build trust and friendship before sex. But can you really go backward? Like, is it possible to just hang out and chat once things have gotten hot and heavy? --Lustbucket A nice thick pane of bulletproof glass between two people is an underappreciated chastity helper, which is to say, in a perfect world, you’d plan your dates around one of you getting a job in a check-cashing place or getting arrested and held without bail. There’s a tendency when you’ve initially gone a little too heavy into the heavy petting to be all: “Oh, well...cat’s out of the bag. Let’s just go straight to the sex dungeon.” However, for women especially, having sex right away can lead to a sort of psychological blinding to their sex partner’s shortcomings. Women seem more prone to getting attached when they have sex. This is thought to result from surging oxytocin, a hormone associated with emotional bonding between mothers and children, as well as lovers. Oxytocin is released in both men and women through cuddling, kissing, and especially through orgasm. However, in men, having sex also sets off a big blast of testosterone. Testosterone goes all nightclub bouncer on oxytocin, blocking it from getting to its receptor. So just as a woman’s going all melt-o about a guy, if the guy has no pre-sex emotional attachment to her, his neurochemistry is prodding him to say something sweet and romantic, like “Thanks for the ride! Have a great life!” In other words, the bulletproof glass suggestion isn’t all that outrageous. It’s a form of “precommitment,” a strategy by economist Thomas Schelling that involves preparing in advance to make it difficult for you to break a promise or duck a goal. Incorporating precommitment could mean only scheduling lunch dates in restaurants and only on days when you have a work meeting right afterward. Another idea is getting to know each other over the phone more than in person -- with the caveat that you only do it in relatively public places, where turning FaceTime into PenisTime is likely to lead to, um, jail time.

on one date with this guy, and it was immediately apparent that he’s emotionally unavailable and broken. I deleted his number but soon dug it back up. I texted, but he never responded. I know he’s bad news, but I still think about him constantly. It’s especially bad when I’m trying to go to sleep. How do I stop these intrusive thoughts? --Besieged It’s like that spinning teacup ride, with Satan as the carny: “Wanna get off? Too bad!” You’re doing your best to avoid thinking Amy Alkon about the guy. Unfortunately, there’s a problem with that. Research by psychologist Daniel Wegner on “the paradoxical effects of thought suppression” suggests our minds have something in common with a defiant 2-year-old, meaning that telling yourself not to think about something gets your mind doing exactly the opposite: thinking about that thing with a vengeance. This is just how the mind works. When you tell yourself not to think about something, it’s an immediate fail. The mind sweeps around to monitor how well you’re doing at not thinking about it, which of course involves thinking about whatever you’re not supposed be thinking about. Helpfully, Wegner and his colleagues found a possible way to stem the flood of intrusive thoughts: distraction. This requires thinking of something positive and unrelated to the thoughts you’re trying to suppress. Even a red Volkswagen -- the example they used in their experiment -- could do the job. What’s more, psychologists Jens Forster and Nira Liberman found that you can keep your mind from constantly bouncing back to a thought if you shift your focus: admit that not thinking about it is hard. As I explain in “Unf*ckology,” “Removing the need to patrol your thoughts ... removes the mental sticky note that tells you to keep going back into Thoughtland with a flashlight to see how well you’re doing at it.” Finally, because the mind cannot multitask, meaning think two thoughts at once, it might be helpful at bedtime to tire yourself out reading aloud or following a guided meditation on your phone: You’re walking down a beach...you’re looking out into the waves...and...um...oops! Just remind yourself that not thinking about something is hard and yank your mind back to Swami Doodah after you inevitably picture yourself holding the guy down and drowning him in the ocean.
