THE "HOW-TO" OF GETTING YOU ON THE SLOPE
When I first learned to ski, I was shown an old leather book, a ski with a binding that included a restraining strap and with that any further instruction was unnecessary
( or so I thought ).
What I hope to do here in the "How-to" section is to show you the process of actually getting to the hill, getting the required gear, donning the gear, and getting you up the hill. I will also cover the beginner point of getting down the hill and back on the lift to do it all over again.
