Make this the season you take a quantum leap in your tele technique! Spend three nights at a converted barn (LOF), only a 15-minute drive from lift-served Jiminy Peak ski resort, where you'll participate in a two-day (Saturday/Sunday) telemark workshop led by expert North American Telemark Organization (NATO) instructors. Participants sign up on their own with NATO (see link below) for workshop (AMC members get 10% discount; NATO arranges discounted lift tickets for participants. See NATO website for details.).
Are you ready for winter? It's time to tune the board(s), gather your gear, and exercise your quads for the season ahead. Day trip to Cannon, Sunapee, Wachusett, or wherever we find best snow and cheapest passes. Everyone welcome to join-friends, relatives, and kids-the more the merrier! Doesn't matter how you get downhill: alpine, snowboard, or telemark (exception: snowmobiles). Group discount will depend on how many we have, so please register to help negotiate a nice discount. See link below for updates and specifics, like resort and price. Think snow!
