Avon - Resort Skinning 101 & GROUP SKIN!

Looking to go UPHILL this winter!? This first workshop in our monthly Ski Touring 101 series is for you! Attend, and qualify for an exclusive discount on fitness touring gear! 15% off a package of 3 items or more (skis, skins, boots, bindings) or 10% off one of those 4 items, valid for one purchase within 30 days of the workshop!

We’ll cover everything you need to head uphill at the resort from gear use and function to skinning technique. We'll have beer on tap so bring your own gear (and a friend interested in trying the sport), enjoy a drink, and make sure you and your gear are ready to head up hill!
