I've never been to Silverton, going this Jan. Anyone know any good guides to request for guided skiing and heli-skiing?

When are you going? I'll be there Jan. 6-8. Not that I'm offering to guide, just want to know if I should say "hi" at the yurt.

To clarify - you're talking about Silverton Mountain ski area?

If he's still guiding there, you'll want to request John Shocklee.
