It’s hard to believe that winter will ever end in the Canadian Rockies, as skiiers take to the slopes and enjoy the fresh layer of powder throughout the region. We love the beauty of winter in Alberta.
But we think a few of you might be wishing for spring – warmer weather, and golf season.
There’s news to share, as you’ll see below. Tee times are already being releaesd, and plans are being made.
We want you to be a part of the 2011 action.
