General:
There are always experienced skiers willing to help you improve. You just have to ask by emailing coordinator at sinup10@canmoreseniors.org and explaining what you need.
For the rest of the season all queries will be dealt with in the course of exploring the trail system.

Meet in Daylodge North end room (not fireplace) at 10:15 with gear packed and skis waxed to depart at 10:30.

We may split into a more distance oriented (few-stops) group and a help group (stop as needed and discuss anything relevant to day-touring) if warranted.
