2001 Western Regionals

I was intent on taking a bunch of pictures of the top seeds with Mt
Ranier in the background, and everybody’s face is dark.  

 

 

Wednesday July 25

 

 

Women 6 Slalom chanp Scarlett Dwyer and Silver Medalist
Barbara Canfield.
Women 7 Slalom Champ Joan Pollycutt
Women 5 Slalom Champ Barbara Baer, Silver Medalist Barbara
Norton (r) and Bronze Medalist Sally Mecham (l)
This is whoever was skiing at 7:51 pm.  Records
indicate that is Mike Stajgr, M4 Overall Champ.   That doesn’t
look like him though, does it?  Send
me email
to help me ID these people.  Refer to pictures by
number.


#1
This is whoever was skiing at 8:00pm.  Again, records
state something that doesn’t seem so.  This ‘should’ be Rob Muhlitner
who left the dock at 7:59.  Kent Smith went right before him and Brad
Hartwell was right after.
#2
I know Brad finished his run at around 8:05 because here he
is after a disappointing fall. 
This is Dennis Phillips, right after Brad.  Is this
really him?  The way the dark water is silhouetting him, it looks
like this guy has a perfect goatee coming off his chin at exactly 45
degrees.  I don’t remember Dennis having one of those.
#3
In the meantime…..
Records and timestamp indicate this is Dave Buccli. 
Kind of looks like him, eh?
#4
Dave again? #5
Brian Hockenberry?  I’ll finish this later with the
help of some skiing style recognition experts. 
 
This is definitely Don Beaman, the winner.
Don, Steve Ware (2nd) and Gordon Rathbun (3rd).
Mike Stajgr, Men 4 Overall Champ, Don Parsons (2nd) and Dee
Johnson (3rd).
Can’t help but take another picture of Donny.  Fellow
Coloradoan. 
Dee and Scott Milewski toast his Overall medal.  Even
though it was a sensitive moment, they DID NOT kiss each other.
In the meantime, Sauci Milewski performed a few magic
tricks.
