Beginner's classic lesson with Bob Dezort.  Meet at 1:00 pm on the flat area beside the concession building at Laurel Ridge XC Ski Center.

No registration is necessary - just be at the meeting point on time and ready to go.

The lessons usually last around an hour. Instruction is given on the basic skills of classic nordic skiing - falling and rising, balance drills, diagonal stride, use of poles and also hill technique. This is followed by short trek on the trails to practice these skills, which also provides an opportunity for individual critique to be given.

The instructors are PACCSA members. Participants are not required to join PACCSA.

The lesson is free but a trail pass must be purchased from the concession.  For equipment rental, see our gear rentals and retailers page.  For trail fees, see Riversport's Laurel Ridge page.
