Haines Borough Manager David Sosa said he’ll recommend the assembly approve use of out-of-bounds area for a snowboard and ski competition this spring.
The assembly would need to approve a resolution opening up the area on the face of Telemark Ridge for use by Freeride World Tour, an international competition that is partnering up with Haines-based heli-ski company Southeast Alaska Backcountry Adventures for the March 14-22 event. The assembly meets next on Dec. 16.
