Weekend Camp Information

Hello everyone, here is the info for the camp this weekend;

Training Camp information

Plan A: meet at the wax room to be ready to start skiing at 11 am (conditional on a bit more snow between now and then). We will ski for 2 hours in skating focusing on weight shift, balance and good technique. We will take some video that we will watch later at the Sky High Ranch. After skiing, have a shower at Mt-Mac and lunch (bring a bag lunch). After lunch, we will head to the Sky High Ranch for the night. We will look at technique and do some games after dinner.

Plan B: no additional snow between now and Saturday :( We will pack our gear in the Ski Team trailer at 11:00 and head to ski in skating up near Sky High for a 2 hour skate ski. After skiing, go back to the lodge and have lunch. No shower.

We will supply the dinner and breakfast so no need for additional food other than your lunch and snacks for training.

On Sunday morning, the plan is to try and ski in classic to the Fraser Loop using the Skyline Trail. We will be back to Mt-Mac around 12:30 - 1 pm.

Packing list:

small day pack with a water bottle, snacks
rock skis, classic skis, boots and poles as well as rock skate skis, boots and poles
skiing clothes including a wind breaker, mitts, hat, buff, dry clothes and running shoes, extra socks
leisure indoor clothes, including a warm fleece and footwear
