Itinerary:

Hardwood has great trails and enough of snow for us. We will ski in small group according to your level and pace. There is a chalet with food and drinks, though it only services basic food. Therefore, you might want to bring your own lunch. I am not organizing group rates - it is just too much work. Therefore, a day trail pass costs $21.50, and a package including a pass and equipment rental costs about $50.00

WHEN YOU SIGN UP PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS IN THE COMMENTS SECTIONS

For drivers, and possible drivers…
1. How many passengers can you take with you, if you take skis and if you don’t take Skis? Also, can you take skis on roof racks? Important for people with long skis.
For everyone...
2. Are you taking skis up with you? Or will you rent them?
3. If you are taking your skis, how long are they? – Please estimate if you are unsure.
4. Would you like some basic, informal ski lessons from me?
5. If you are a good skier, would you be willing to help me out with the teaching? Even if you think you can’t teach people to ski you can demonstrate proper technique.

If this your first trip of 2010, please print a waiver, bring it with you, and fill it out in front of a volunteer organizer as a witness. See link below.
