The XCD clinic is a great way to work on lots of downhill techniques without burning all your energy climbing the hill.  Instead, the lifts at Hooddoo take care of that, and for only $35 on Thrifty Thursday.  11 students were eager to learn from instructors Woody Keen and Mark Waters, and all had a great day.

As Ed put it, “Today’s XCD Clinic at Hoodoo ski area was an effective , efficient, way to expedite learning and build confidence to attempt backcountry downhill turns, and enjoy the experience.“  Excellent, Ed!
