Itinerary:

It's still snowing but the temperatures are set to start rising on Saturday. Let's try to squeeze in one more ski day at Hardwood. I've set the time relatively early in the hope that we can get some skiing in before the temperature gets to 0.

WHEN YOU SIGN UP PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTIONS BELOW IN THE COMMENTS SECTION.

We will ski in small groups according to your level and pace. There is a chalet with food and drinks, though it only serves basic food. Therefore, you might want to bring your own lunch.
A trail pass costs $21.95 (plus tax) per person. If you need to rent equipment, it costs an additional $28.50 (plus tax) for a total of $50.45 (plus tax) per person.

We will leave Hardwood around 4 - 4:30 to arrive at Downsview by 6:00pm. If the will of the group is to stay longer, we can negotiate. Given that it is light longer, we might want to ski a tiny bit more.

WHEN YOU SIGN UP PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS IN THE COMMENTS 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?
3. If you are taking your skis, how long are they? – Please estimate if you are unsure.
