Description

After many years of back country skiing, instructor Paul Bischoff has returned to the art and sport of cross country skiing for its ease, simplicity, and cost. Paul will give you a narrated driving tour of the Generals Highway from the foothills to the Giant Forest plateau.

Once at the Wuksachi Lodge, you'll get your ski gear and head out for a day of gentle and very fun cross country ski lessons. After lunch (you bring), spend the afternoon practicing your new skills and get more personal tips from Paul. You'll then get the rest of your narrated driving tour on the way back down the Generals Highway to your car.

Price includes: course registration, transportation from the Foothills Visitor Center to the Wuksachi Lodge, instruction, and cross country ski gear rental.
