COURTESY on cross country ski trails is for safety but also for everyone's enjoyment

Mon objectif avec ce JOURNAL est de partager de temps en temps un aperçu de ma vie de chrétien catholique et de prêtre pour rejoindre d'autres personnes qui désirent contribuer au bien commun et aussi, directement ou indirectement, faire avancer l'ouverture personnelle à Dieu qui fait vivre toute l'humanité et veille sur nous. G.S.

----------------------------------------------------------------

My purpose in this JOURNAL is to share once in a while a glimpse of my life as a Catholic Christian and as a priest and to connect with other people who desire to contribute to the common good and also, directly or indirectly, to enable personal openness to God who gives life to all of humanity and watches over us. G.S.

COURTESY on cross country ski trails


We don't find too many signs to teach new skiers. It's basically up to experienced skiers to pass on this information to help limit conflicts, accidents, and injuries, but also to enhanve enjoyment by all.

(1) Follow the signs so as to go in the right direction on one-way trails. Going the wrong way blocks the left tracks which is for passing.

(2) Some parts of trails may be 2-way, but following the signs you can't go wrong.

(3) If you need to stop, side step off the tracks to allow other skiers to go by.

(4) Be careful with your ski poles so you don't injure other skiers.

(5) When skiing "double" - side by side - with family or friends, watch for skiers coming from behind who may need the left tracks in order to pass. Move to the right side track to allow them to pass.

That's mostly it. It's not rocket science. The point is to help avoid injuries and to increase the enjoyment by all, new skiers beginning to learn, intermediate experienced skiers, and elite rapid skiers. ENJOY!
