13th Annual Heavenly Women’s Proficiency Clinic - 3/7/2010
What a Beautiful Day It Was!
By Trudy Nye, IOR
We had a small but mighty group of 10 ladies for this year’s toboggan and skiing clinic6 from Heavenly, 1 from Soda Springs, 1 from Sierra and 2 from Squaw. For the first time in 3-4 years, we had clear blue skies and warmer temperatures. After a warm up run, we worked on intermediate to advanced runs, including a former chair line and Waterfall, a short but steep black diamond. Everyone was able to experience success and victory, all in an encouraging, supportive, friendly and fun environment. Thanks go out to Leilani Connolly-Anderson and Kim Ranella for their expert instruction and assistance! After wearing ourselves out with multiple sled runs, we broke for lunch at Lake View restaurant overlooking beautiful Lake Tahoe. Then we met Bea Gorman, our wonderful ski instructor who worked with each one of us to improve our skiing techniques on both groomed, ungroomed and tree runs. We ended the day on South Bowl in the sun and trees. It was a great day and everyone enjoyed the instruction and camaraderie. If you are interested in joining us in 2011, contact Trudy on the Heavenly Area Patrol website. GO GIRLS!!!
