Itinerary:
Want to have more fun back country skiing? Practice turns at the resorts! This trip is best suited for the intermediate and above skiers who need more confidence skiing backcountry step and deep terrain or just want to practice their turning technique. We will ski black runs in the back bowls (Paradise, Summit - front and back) looking for soft snow and powder if we get lucky and also ski some glades (Ptarmigan). We will start as a group, perhaps splitting into 2 groups based on ski ability levels. Ski improving tips will be offered if needed. We'll meet at the main lodge around 9:00 AM near the outdoor ticket booths. We’ll also meet at Temple Lodge (on the back side) for lunch at ~ 12:30. We will plan to leave the hill around 4:30 PM. It is important to make arrangements with your driver as to where and when to meet for the drive back.
