Whistler Happy Ski Camp Apr 6-7, 2024

With a frosty paradise in April, a group of thrill-seekers embarked on a journey to Whistler for the Happy Ski Camp organized by PNOA. The group intended to foster awareness of the risks associated with skiing and snowboarding to make sure participants have the safest, and most enjoyable experience possible while outdoors. With over 30 adventurers eager to conquer the slopes, the camp was divided into various skill levels, including snowboarders, beginners, intermediates, advanced skiers, and even those preparing for their CSIA Level 1 Instructor certification.

Under the guidance of experienced CSIA/CASI instructors, each group set out to tackle the mountains, filled with excitement and anticipation. From the gentle slopes for beginners to the challenging terrain for the advanced skiers, there was something for everyone to enjoy.

Throughout the two days, laughter echoed through the snowy peaks as friendships were forged and skills honed. Whether gliding gracefully down the slopes or bravely attempting new tricks, every participant felt the rush of adrenaline and the joy of accomplishment.

As the sun set on the final day, memories were etched into hearts, and smiles adorned faces. It was a ski trip to remember—a safe, happy, and perfect adventure shared among kindred spirits amidst the breathtaking beauty of Whistler’s snow-covered peaks.

Special Thanks to Sue Q, Tim, Lisa, Elton, Yuki and Michael for leading the groups.

四月的冰雪天堂,一群寻求刺激的人踏上了前往惠斯勒的旅程,参加由 PNOA 组织的快乐滑雪营。这团队旨在提高人们对滑雪和单板滑雪相关风险的认识,以确保参与者在户外享受最安全、最愉快的体验。超过 30 名渴望征服山坡的冒险者参加了该营,营地分为不同的技能水平,包括单板滑雪者、初学者、中级滑雪者、高级滑雪者,甚至那些正在准备获得 CSIA/CASI一级教练认证的人。

在经验丰富的 CSIA/CASI 教练的指导下,每个小组都满怀兴奋和期待地开始征服山脉。从适合初学者的平缓坡道到适合高级滑雪者的具有挑战性的地形,每个人都能从中找到乐趣。

在两天的时间里,欢声笑语回荡在白雪皑皑的山峰上,友谊在建立,技能在磨练。无论是优雅地滑下山坡,还是勇敢地尝试新技巧,每个参与者都感受到了肾上腺素的激增和成就的喜悦。

随着最后一天的落日,回忆刻在心中,笑容挂满脸。 这是一次令人难忘的滑雪之旅——在惠斯勒白雪皑皑的山峰的壮丽美景中,与志趣相投的人一起分享了一次安全、快乐和完美的冒险。

特别感谢 Sue Q, Tim, Lisa, Elton, Yuki 和 Michael 领导这些小组。
