Site!!!

Now it is time to select a site.

We will be voting on a site at the next meeting and as stated before;

"If you don't choose one, we will!!!"

Some things to consider when looking for a site:

 

·      Remember what your project is!!!!! (SKI/SPA)

·      Rural? Urban?

·      What is the climate like?

·      How close it is to public transit? a population?

·      East coast? West coast? Midwest?

·      US or abroad?

·      What is the topography like (flat, mountainous, lots of plants, desert)

·      Lots of sun, wind, geothermal, tidal energy?

·      Open site (ie. side of unused hill)

·      Compacted site (underside of a freeway?)

 

The sky is the limit on this site selection.  Lets see some discussion.

 

Homework!!!!!

During the next two weeks!

Post- sketches, poems, writings, haiku's, link to google earth images, maps etc.  Put forth ideas and defend them. If you send us a link we can post it.  

 

Make sure to VOTE!! Check out the poll on the blog. Good Luck!!

We could take care of Seattle's flooding streets by taking in a portion of downtowns storm water runoff and turning it into snow.

Why don't we just build a giant geodesic dome over "Summit" @ Snoqualmie Pass since fake snow is better than no snow!!! Would probably double their winter customers alone!!!
