Itinerary:

Some of us will be lucky to have December 27 off and so let's plan to go skiing! The good news is that Highlands Nordic and other nearby resorts FINALLY got some snow. AND they are expecting more on Boxing Day. Depending on which resort has the best conditions there is a chance that we may go to elsewhere, like Hourseshoe Valley, instead. We will know more after the Boxing Day snow fall.

WHEN YOU SIGN UP PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BELOW IN THE NOTES SECTION

We will ski in small groups according to your level and pace. There is a chalet with food and drinks, though it only serves basic food. Therefore, you might want to bring your own lunch.
If we have 10 or more people, we qualify for group rates: trail pass costs $13 per person. Equipment rental and trail pass package costs $28 per person. Both are tax inclusive. If we are fewer than 10 people, trail pass costs $17 per person. Equipment rental and trail pass package costs $35 per person. Both are tax inclusive.

If participants would like, we can have dinner in the city afterward.
