The Banff trip was a bit frigid but a great success. 19 members from the club travelled to Banff Alberta the week of Feb. 19 th to the 26 th . Skiing in Alberta was still cold but we got a lot of great runs and had some good times. The vistas and scenery in the Banff National Forest are some of the best I’ve ever seen at a ski destination. Please check out some of the trip posts on the club site. If you have a google account check out this video from the top of the Banff town gondola that Joe Brutsman took during out visit.
