Please no dogs or other pets at the areas when public is also on the hill.  That extends to 24/7, or ALL the time on Nordic trails.  As far as the alpine terrain I'll bet we could manage to ignore when the hills are closed to public operations but as an owner myself, with a dog who goes on all the chairs and slopes -It is absolutely imperative that the owner is 100% in control and attentive enough to clean and manage all feces.  Around the facilities and base areas either leashed or impeccable voice control  -  Easier said than done.  I think for now let's see if we can make that work and not be forced into writing rules of engagement.  As you know one issue can spoil it for everyone.

Hey Gib thanks for weighing in. Do you guys ever take aim at the Phantom (for control work), and if so is there a website that announces your intention?

Yes, that side is our heavy responsibility as well.  Fortunately here in the great NW the snowpack really only forces the issue a time or two a season, or as of late - not for more than a few seasons.  WE go whole hog when we have to bring in the big guns ($tim will like me calling him that!) and we will give absolutely as much advance notice as possible.  Many signs go out and on the day of the show we will have staff onsite at closure points and put signs as far back down valley as the PCT South access road.  There is also a snow phone (thanks for reminder to make sure it's working)  Website has gone off line and we're going to try and get a guru to put that back in mix.  Check out the large info sign in Alpental Main lot on the Snoqualmie Mountain side of lot and if there are more questions after that I will try and respond.

Man, it would be so cool if we could establish a good uphill track on the right side to avoid the downhill track altogether. Does anyone have any good beta on that? Would that require some illegal alder cutting?

Though I guess I'm assuming that the uphill track would branch off from the cat track portion of the downhill track...and we'd still go up the dog poop littered road from the top of lot 4 :)...on the far right side of course...not hand in hand in the middle like is so often the case.
