The Desert Sage
CHAIRMANS CORNER

We had our Management Committee kick-off meeting and we are planning an exciting 1984-1985 year. The November-February schedule will be supplemented with DPS trip write-ups published in the Desert Sage. This issue contains three.

Another innovation will be trips that will have other desert related activities planned along with a peak climb to enable greater family participation and increase our membership. An example was Maris Valkass' Peak Climb combined with an Owens River Raft trip. We are also planning some DPS recruiting activities to involve more people in our fabulous deserts.

We have started compiling a Desert Peaks Climbing Guide. Ron Jones is researching old Sages and writing up road heads and climbing routes. These will be expanded from recent and current climbs. In a few years we should have a complete DPS Guide.

Management Committee meetings are normally held between 7-7:30 p.m. prior to regular meetings. All members are welcome to attend. Please send me your suggestions. With your participation, we are anticipating another great DPS season.
