Hello Everybody

I found this forum and think it's a great knowledge transfer place. I will introduce myself:

I was born in Switzerland and had the opportunity to go skiing and mountaineering every weekend, also to have 3 times a year ski-vacations and attend twice a year a ski camps. I made my ski instructor by the swiss army and was a camp leader for a few years. My job/wife brought me to the US/WI in 2003. I did not had time to ski for a wile. Now my job allows me to go more to skiing and especially now, I begin to ski teaching again. My first day will be tomorrow and I'm looking forward for this time.

Take care, Volker@mde

Sounds like you have had an interesting few years! Wisconsin's terrian is quite boring compared to Switzerland's. Have you been out to Utah before? Go Pack!

Hey there mde! Welcome to Talk Ski!

Growing up in a skiing country must have been amazing!

It sounds like you have plenty of experience and you must get a great feeling from teaching someone to ski!

Hopfully your expertise will help many of the forum members.
