This clinic is for advanced beginner and intermediate skiers who want to improve their skills and learn to teach others. Current and future instructors and leaders are all welcome. You must be comfortable on White Pass terrain, including the Dark Meadow and Dog Lake trails.
This is the third year for this popular clinic, taught by former PSIA instructor Gary Altman. He will cover teaching methods he has refined over the years and you will improve your skills as well.
An optional in-person classroom session will be held in Olympia in early December--date and time TBD.
Olympia Branch cross country ski instructors and leaders are encouraged to attend.
