Join Karen Immerso on a cross country ski outing. This outing is for those 50 and better in age who are interested in a gentle, learn-as-we go, classical style cross country skiing with others who enjoy being out and about in winter. First timers are encouraged to participate as beginner tips will be offered and “patience while having fun” will be the theme for the day. Participants must have skis, boots and poles. Participants should wear warm, layered clothing including hats, gloves, sunglasses, or goggles. Participants should also bring a day pack carrying 1-2 liters of water, additional snacks, and sun protection. In new snow, gaiters are recommended.
Karen Immerso, veteran field instructor for Outward Bound in Colorado and former Director of Western’s Wilderness Pursuits program, has many years of hiking, climbing, and instructing mountain skills.
