1. Backcountry Skiing: General Info And Disclaimer Backcountry skiing general Info and Disclaimer. Yvon Canard friendat home in their MiniMid. Most of the tours listed at this http://www.bobskiing.com/skiinfo.htm

Most of the tours listed at this site are best classified as "ski mountaineering", and require a high degree of ski experience as well as general backcountry experience. A few of the trips require advanced mountaineering experience. Most of these tours also include some degree of avalanche hazard. Backcountry ski mountaineering is physically demanding, requires specialized skills, and it's pretty gear-intensive too. Preparing you for backcountry ski trips is far beyond the scope of this web site. However, the following list is a good start. This may seem like a lot of tough prerequesites. Preparing for backcountry skiing takes years of commitment. But it's worth it. To me, there is no richer experience than to be on skis in the High Sierra backcountry. Watch for Snow Slippers! Develop very strong backcountry skills . Do plenty of summer backpacking, perhaps including some travel far away from trails. Master topo map reading and compass skills, and never venture into the backcountry without topo map(s) and a compass. You should have very solid ski technique . You should have an efficient diagonal stride. Be able to make strong telemark and parallel turns. Practice at downhill resorts, and practice in difficult snow conditions. A steep remote slope (with a 40-pound pack) isn't the best place to learn ski technique.

Most trips that are organized through SnoNet are best classified as "ski mountaineering", and require a high degree of ski experience as well as general backcountry experience. Some trips require advanced mountaineering experience, and most also include some degree of avalanche hazard. Backcountry ski mountaineering is physically demanding, requires specialized skills, and it's pretty gear-intensive too. Preparing you for backcountry ski trips is far beyond the scope of this web site. However, here's a start... Before attempting advanced tours such as those contained here, I recommend: Watch for Snow Slippers! Develop very strong backcountry skills . Do plenty of summer backpacking, perhaps including some travel far away from trails. Master topo map reading and compass skills, and never venture into the backcountry without topo map(s) and a compass. You should have very solid ski technique . You should have an efficient diagonal stride. Be able to make strong telemark and parallel turns. Practice at downhill resorts, and practice in difficult snow conditions. "Survival" ski skills, such as side-slip, traverse, and kick-turn are particularly important. Crossing a steep icy slope with a 40-pound pack isn't the best time to learn ski technique. Sometimes it is safest to take the skis off , so you need to learn the basics of general mountaineering. Know how to climb and descend steep snow. It isn't just a matter of strapping pointy things on your feet and walking around; there are important techniques that must be developed and practiced. Take a class, read books such as Yvon Chouinard's

Arizona's White Mountains Alpine Ranger District Cross Country Information ~ Alpine Ranger District. Few places offer as much trouble-free skiing enjoyment as the Alpine Ranger District. Here in the midst of Arizona's picturesque White Mountains all you have to do is park your car, strap on your skis and go. You don't have to stand in line to buy a trail pass, and you don't have to elbow your way through crowds of other skiers. The deep snow pack turns the forest roads and trails that branch off US 191 (formerly US 666) into a network of ski trails that lead into the forest from the highway. For access, there are a number of convenient plowed turnouts for parking (especially in the Hannagan Meadows and Williams Valley areas). On these high country trails you can ski for a day or pack up your four-season tent and a pack full of food and be gone for a week. If you have the time, you might want to set out for a backcountry designation such as the broad meadows and high slopes of Escudilla, the third highest mountain in Arizona, or the inner reaches of the Bear Wallow Wilderness. Wherever you go be ready for untracked mountain meadows, deep silent forests, and miles and miles of alpine scenery. The secret's in the snow (and the Scenery) You would expect a place with the word "alpine" in its name to have great snow, and in the case of the Alpine District of the Apache Sitgreaves National Forest, you would be absolutely right. Much of the district ranges in altitude between 8,000 and 9,000 feet, which means that the snow that falls here is dry, deep, and cold-some of the best in the southwest. The weather's great too (except when it's storming). During winter the days are frequently bright and sunny. The air is always crisp and clean. And you'll never see a bluer sky than an Alpine Arizona sky, especially when you see it through the stark white limbs of a grove of high county aspen.

PHYSICAL ACTIVITY CALORIC EXPENDITURE ASSESSMENT* Determination of caloric expenditure from physical activity: To determine the number of calories you are expending from an activity, you multiply your body weight (in kilograms) by the MET value (from the table below) and the duration of the activity (in hours-take the number of minutes you exercise and divide by 60). For example, if you weigh 60 kilograms (kg) and you bicycle at a 4 MET value for 40 minutes, you will have expended the following number of calories: 4 (METS) X 60 (kg) X (40/60) (time) = 160 calories. If you want to know how many calories you expended per minute of exercise, take the total number of calories expended and divide by the time in minutes. So for the example above, if you divide 160 by 40, you get 4 calories burned each minute of exercise. The following table lists the MET values for many common activities. Look at the table for the activity that most closely resembles what you do, to get the MET value. This list does not cover every activity. If there is something you do that is not on the list, please contact the Fitmaster for information about the MET value of that activity. The Fitmaster has MET values for many different activities, including housework, occupation, and other miscellaneous activities. MET Value Table Activity MET Value

Nordic Skiing Cross-Country, the oldest form of skiing, originated in northern Europe. It is also called Nordic Skiing because the sport developed in the Nordic countries. The competitors vie in classical or free techniques and there are individual and team events ranging between 2.5 km to 20 km in distance. Depending on functional disability, a competitor uses a sit-ski (chair-ski), a chair equipped with a pair of skis. A visually disabled athlete competes in the event with a guide. In addition, in consultation with the IPC it has been officially decided that the Mental Disabled competitors will be included in some events of Cross-Country Skiing in the 1998 Winter Paralympic Games. IPC Nordic Skiing Class Percentages (Classic Style and Free Technique), Winter Season 2002-2003 From 7 to 15 February 2003, the Nordic Skiing World Championships will take place in Baiersbronn, Germany.

17. Alpine Skiing - General Information Alpine skiing. Speed, strength, power athletes in all disabilityclasses combine these elements pushing their limits to speed http://www.paralympic.org/sports/sections/ask/general.htm

Alpine Skiing Speed, strength, power ... athletes in all disability classes combine these elements pushing their limits to speed down mountain tops and through slalom courses in alpine skiing events. The competitions are the same as those in the Olympic competitons, namely: downhill, super-G, giant slalom and slalom. Apparent disabililites of the skiers do not get in the way of breathtaking performances and the competitors in the alpine events at the Lillehammer 1994 Winter Paralympics certainly lived up to the Olympic motto: "Faster, Higher, Stronger". Visually impaired skiers are guided through the course by sighted companions, and athletes with physical disabilities use equipment that is adapted to their needs; including single skies, sit-skies, or orthopedic aids. As these athletes speed down the courses, they prove without a doubt that the alpine events at the Paralympic level are anything but rehabilitation!

General Information THE SKI AREA Our ski area located in the Interior Mountain of British Columbia can be described as the heart of heli-skiing, and Glacier National Park, CMH Gothics, Adamants, Revelstoke, Galena, Great Canadian and Purcell Heli-skiing, Golden. We ski in two major mountia ranges, the Moashees to the west and the Selkiriks to the east of Revelstoke. Both Mountain Ranges are noted for reliable powder snow condtions and great terrian. We have established over 200 major runs with countless variations and it is uncommon to ski new runs. Altitude Most of our skiing takes place below 3,00 meters (9,850 ft.). Due to the geographical location of our mountains and the climatic condtions, excellent snow is common from top to bottom without having to go to elevations where altitudes may become a problem. Fitness To enjoy heli - skiing you should be in reasonable shape. We recommend that you engage in some kind of exercise program eight to ten weeks prior to your trip. It stands to reason that the fitter you are the better you will be able to handle the skiing challenges, and the less likely it will be for you get hurt. Skiing Ability If you are a strong intermidate skier in a regular ski area you should be able to adapt quickly to deep snow skiing. Most of our guides are also ski instructors and will give you helpful tips. It might be of further help to you to try a pair of our specially selected rental skis suitable for these snow conditions. As well, we will do our best to put you in with a group of similar skiig ability.
