“In Flagstaff, Az there is an effort on the part of the Navajo and Hopi tribes against using reclaimed waste water to make snow on a local ski resort, The Snowbowl.   Thirteen surrounding tribes hold the San Francisco peaks, where the fake snow is to be made, a sacred mountain.  the tribes believe that deities within their respective cosmologies reside there.
