Word from some respected mucky-mucks at Mont Tremblant is that Intrawest is in serious financial trouble because of currency values, weather, past reputation, and the way they treat the skiing consumer. To add fuel to the fire, all events are to be cancelled, since the Events department head...

Probably because you kept asking what tricks you learn. Listen, there is no fixed curriculum okay? The camps don't go out claiming: today you'll learn the switch cork 10 'cause it'll be the money trick at comps this year, etc... You fill out a form at the beginning stating what you'd like to...
