Now tell us how you really feel…about the nature-based physical literacy summit combined with lovely grand outdoor adventures in @visitgrosmorne. It’s been a marvellous few days of being delayed by the storm. :-)What an amazing ski we had today!!! I might be hooked on backcountry skiing!Well-while I didn’t get to head home after the summit today, instead I got to go for another wonderful backcountry ski…and tomorrow I’m headed out again with my wonderful hosts, Sue and Bob. I warned them that I’m like a bad cold, easy to catch-hard to get rid of! This pic by Sue is of our ski-errr-planning retreat on Thursday before the summit started that evening! Such fun!Had a fabulous backcountry ski yesterday re:summit leadership team retreat, on a new trail that had just been flagged. Fresh powder everywhere!Good morning from Norris Point!Cheers to active outdoor living!TA’s Facebook Page
