Adventure Ski: Ages 12-18 

 

About: This program is for youth with a sense of adventure who want to explore skiing through all avenues. This includes building on skill development gained in Track Attack/previous ski experience while embracing the Active for Life stage of the LTAD model and exploring other areas of winter adventure. Adventure skiers will develop their classic and skate ski technique through practice, games, long distance skis, and backcountry ski activities. The goal of this program is to further confidence on the Nordic trails and to create lifelong participants in winter activities.
