Newfoundland
We all learned to ski in Newfoundland. The kids joined Nancy Green and were avid racers. We had the choice of three ski hills.
Logy Lump is a small hill just outside St. John's. The snow was not very good there most years. Chris talks about the kids skiing down using patches of snow only a couple of feet across - going down like mountain goats - he tried to follow.
White Hills is about a 2 hour drive and has gone bankrupt several times - in the years when the snow did not materialize.
And Marble Mountain is on the west coast, a six hour drive each way, but the best skiing. |
