Itinerary:

WHEN YOU SIGN UP PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BELOW IN THE NOTES SECTION

Horseshoe Valley has beautiful trails appropriate for all levels of skiers. And at some point they will have SNOW - even if Toronto does not! If Horseshoe has poor snow condition and a nearby resort has better, we will go there instead. I will let participants know that resort's rates and carpool costs.

We will ski in small groups according to your level and pace. Horseshoe has a cafeteria but it only servers basic food. And so you might want to bring your lunch with you.

Horseshoe fees are as follows: Trail pass $23.00 (plus tax) Trail pass and equipment rental $44.0 (plus tax)

If participants want, I will offer a short informal lesson for beginners and intermediate skiers.

Those who want can go out to dinner back in Toronto.

WHEN YOU SIGN UP PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS IN THE NOTES SECTION (Just copy and paste the questions into the notes section)
For drivers, and possible drivers…
1. How many passengers can you take with you, if you take skis and if you don’t take skis? Also, can you take skis on roof racks? Important for people with long skis.
For everyone...
2. Are you taking skis up with you? Or will you rent them?

We will leave Horseshoe by 4 pm and return to Downsview by around 5:30pm.
