Mother Lode Region

Hello Mother Lode Patrollers and any visitors!

Welcome to visitors, potential future patrollers and hosts! A Big Thanks for checking us out! Click on the “Join Us” Tab!

Fellow Patrollers, 

Winter has arrived and hopefully most of you have gotten some days in patrolling and skiing. in, unless of course you are an all year round bike host/patroller! Regardless, we are in the winter season! While we await some more snow it seems the sunny days and the groomers are attracting consistent crowds of folks determined to get some days in on skis and boards.

January is the season of Toboggan Refreshers and Enhancements, Candidate Ski and Toboggan training sessions. 

Patrol Reps. and members!!! Please check out the calendar with all of its upcoming events!

The region is full of clinics and training sessions for members to attend, network with other patrollers from other mountains, and to advance your skills. Regardless of your focus there is something for everyone from OEC/SEM-OET-AVI and more! Your Contacts for the region are found under the officers and advisors tab. 

Finally, for Mother Lode Patrol Reps and Advisors, mark your calendar for January 25th as it is our date for the Winter Board Meeting @ Boreal Ridge 5:30PM following a day of Ski instruction and Toboggan enhancement up the road at Donner Summit. The day will feature two half day sessions. Work on a place to stay and make a weekend of it at the Summit. For those that cannot be there in person we will have a Zoom Link as well so that all can attend and participate.

I am looking forward to getting together with many of you to ski, train, and have fun throughout the region this winter!

Thank you for all that you do! Happy New Year and stay safe!

All the Best,

William J. Borelli

Mother Lode Region Director
