Weekend Camp Information

Hello everyone, I hope you are all enjoying a bit of a break from formal training and getting some skiing done in the mountains in the sunshine.

Here is the information for the weekend camp at Sky High;

We will be leaving the parking lot of the Ski Chalet (wax room) at 10 am on Saturday morning. I will have a fifteen passenger van and the CCY trailer for luggage and the ski equipment.

Please be ready and dress for skiing with your skate training/rock skis, poles, boots and a small day pack. Make sure to pack a lunch with some water. You should be ready to ski when we will get to Fish Lake around 10:30. We will ski on Fish Lake and beyond for a couple of hours, stop for lunch and then come back. The length of the ski will be snow dependant. Make sure you get your ski equipment from the Ski Chalet this week as the opening hours will be reduced this weekend.

After the ski we will go to the Sky High Ranch and have athlete's meetings to review the last season and plan for the up coming ski season. We will have a team dinner followed by a few social games afterward.

On Sunday, we will attempt to ski from Fish Lake back to the ski chalet. We should be back at the Ski Chalet in early afternoon, depending on snow conditions and how close we can ski back to the Chalet?

Packing list:

- sleeping bag, mattress pad for the boys (sleeping in the Yurt)
- ski clothes including skate skis, boots and poles
- small day pack, water bottle
- wind breaker, sunglasses, sunscreen
- casual clothes
- swim suit and a towel for the sauna
- games

We will provide the food for the dinner Saturday, the breakfast on Sunday and stuff to make lunches for Sunday's ski.

Let me know if you have any questions. Take care. Alain
