Basic Cross-Country Hills


Get comfortable with skiing on the hilly sections that can be found on many cross-country trails and present a real challenge for the beginning cross-country skier.  Learn how to move uphill, turn, glide downhill, and slow yourself down.  Then, practice new skills with an afternoon ski tour on rolling terrain in Kananaskis Country.
