Update #2 - Colorado Trip
Ski bag and Hiking Boots. Just a reminder before we generate the "official" packing list, everyone will need to have a pair of well fitting hiking boots and a ski bag to transport your telemark skis & poles.
Hiking Boots - Since we will be hiking, as much as or more than skiing, boots are important. If you have a pair already, double check for fit, give them a cleaning and if leather, recondition them with some waterproofing. If you don't have a pair, perhaps you can borrow a pair from family or friends. Make sure you spend some time "breaking 'em in."
Ski Bag - We have a few extra ski bags to lend, but if you already have one, great. Since we'll be limited to 2 checked bags and one carry on, be sure to tuck other things into the ski bag with your skis and poles. Make sure to waterproof anything you put in the ski bag with a zip-lock bag. Items like socks, gloves, etc are a few things that work well.
Reminder - your packing list suggestions are due by Monday 4/30.
Next Meeting: Wednesday, May 2 - activity period
