XC on-trail Help

Date/Time
Date(s) - Tue Feb 18 2020

Notes:

General:
No casual drop-in for rest of 2019-20 season but 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.

Program:
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.
