Ontario copes with the eastern winter 2007 Posted on Jan 27th, 2007
When it became clear that the early winter weather would not deliver sufficient terrain to run a Telemark Level II course scheduled for Calabogie Peaks, near Ottawa, CANSI Ontario scrambled to find alternatives, and found a solution by moving the course to Mont Tremblant Quebec.
The Resort at Mont Tremblant helped out by allowing the 4 day course to run on it's slopes. The mountain's extensive snow making facilities, colder temperatures, and even some help from Mother Nature made the course a success. The advanced terrain for the course was all there - groomed, variable, steeps, bumps, and glades. The course was conducted by Glenn Lee. Tremblant's Stephane Perreault provided a half day of advanced skill improvement on day 3 of the course that was enjoyed by all participants. Everyone skied hard for 4 days, and definite improvements were seen in their skiing and teaching skills.
Congratulations to CANSI Ontario's newest Telemark Level II Instructors: Paul Battle of Packenham, and Dave Sampson of Ottawa.
