Summer Glacier Skiing and Snowboarding

Summer Glacier Skiing and RidingThe sun is shining, the lakes are warm, it's the perfect time to ... go skiing and riding. The Blackcomb Glacier lets you experience the best of both worlds - work on your tan and get your ski/ride fix at the same time.
For Summer 2005, there will be a public rail park with one box, one c-box and one flat-bar in addition to the public skiing/riding lanes. Check out the variety of Summer Ski and Snowboard Camps available.The summer glacier experience is recommended for intermediate to advanced skiers and riders and offers a perfect opportunity to improve your park and bump skills.

What could be more fun than a ski/ride getaway in the middle of the summer? Vacation Packages make it easy.
