He clearly remembers his first instructor, and some of the awesome moments that... Source ..read more

As last time, in 2020... Source ..read more

Just got home and am still pinching myself as to how lucky I got in Whistler. The Downhill house was beautiful, the landscapes stunning, and the snow perfect after that orientation day.

You have built such a lovely community, people instantly feel welcome... Source ..read more
