"Badger Pass in Yosemite National Park became on of the earliest ski resorts in 1935 with the construction of the Lodge and the preparation of the slopes for downhill skiing. This rare 8mm color film, accompanied by a first hand historical narrative(by Larry Huebner), chronicles the development of American skiing in the year prior to WWII through 1942. Thirty-five minutes of footage details techniques, equipment, and clothing styles of the fledgling sport, and the fantastic new "upski" called the "Queen Mary" that presaged the chairlift. It depicts the only known extant color footage of the internationally famous "Far West Kandahar," a downhill race held at Badger Pass in the spring of 1941 where some of Europe's most heralded skiers completed. Yosemite's Badger Pass, 1941-1942 is a national treasure that stands alone in American skiing history." -karin huebner
