A note about Denis from his daughter, Hilary Cassady:
“Dad’s favourite drink was scotch but he could put back just about anything especially rum and eggnog. He skiied until he was 93 and his favourite run was AOT. He only stopped skiing cuz he broke his leg while trying to show off for the young girls at the chalet (going off a jump).”
MMC-Shames Mountain General Manager, Christian Theberge:
“We are planning that this snowfall will be enough to get us fully open on Saturday the 21st. Just in time for Denis Rowse Retro day; where we will celebrate the late Denis Rowse, who skied at Shames until his early-90s on classic stainless steel Volant Skis.”

Indy Pass & Teton Gravity Research: Mountains Not For Profit | Facebook

Doors will open at 6pm, the film starts at 7, followed by a Q&A with some Shames mountain originals that have supported and created Shames into the mountain community we know and love!

Tickets will be by donation at the Shames Mountain downtown office and Unbound Gear & Apparel. Keep an eye out for when they become available!

“The resurgent story of community-empowered ski and snowboard areas.

Mountains Not for Profit is a Teton Gravity Research short documentary that tells the story of four non-profit ski areas in North America, which thrive on community support and a shared passion for skiing and snowboarding. Directed by Drew Holt, the film explores how these mountains, unlike larger resorts, are empowered by volunteers, donations, and the love of the sport, preserving the soul of skiing.”

The team at Indy Pass cares deeply about all independent mountains—non-profit, co-op, and for-profit. For some independent mountains, the non-profit business model is a viable and impactful way to keep skiing alive by keeping it affordable and accessible, giving communities around North America an opportunity to get outside in the winter.

This mission is so important to us that we partnered with the storied filmmakers at Teton Gravity Research to support the making of a short film called Mountains Not for Profit. The film features Whaleback Mountain in NH, Shames Mountain in BC, Black Mountain of Maine, and Antelope Butte in WY. This short film will premiere in each of these mountains’ hometowns throughout November and will premiere digitally on 11/26.

Mountain’s Not for Profit
Following the movie presentation, we will give out Prizes and tell the story of the Shames Mountain. Our story is one of, resiliency, community and cooperation.
