If a dusting of snow wasn't enough to get skiers and snowboarders excited about the winter season ahead, the latest Warren Miller film is sure to get riders thinking about their first runs. The film titled "75" is showing across Northern California during the first two weekends of November. The film marks the 75th anniversary of the Warren Miller legacy that all started in 1949 with a segment filmed at Palisades Tahoe.

Nestled in the heart of Rocklin, California, Deer Creek Park is a hidden treasure often overlooked by passersby. The park is located along Pacific Street, not far from the bustling Rocklin Quarry Adventure Park. At first glance, one might dismiss it as merely a collection of granite boulders. However, history reveals it's more significant; it's believed to be one of the original Rocklin quarries, established in 1861 by Charles Brigham and Levi Hawes.
