I don;t yet have photos from this year's trip but if you click above you can see photos of a sitski for mobility impaired skiers and of blind skiers with their guides!

That is really neat! Thank you for posting the pictures. I could not have imagined what a sit-ski would be like; and the smiles of everyone's faces are just amazing.
I saw the liability form too - a person pretty much signs up to assume all responsibility even if some aspect of the facility were a contributing cause to a mishap. It's probably the only way to get the venues to open - and probably worth it.
Thanks for taking time to post these: I really appreciate it.
Ski for Light is also supported by the Sons of Norway who allow the program to use their lodges. They provide lodging and family style meals at a discount and their members volunteer as guides. It has been wonderful to get to know so many wonderful Norwegian people who treat us like family every year!
