on another bow valley note,
here is a photo from yesterday of his ice session at Lac des Arcs, between canmore and banff.
It is supposed to be +15 on the weekend, so it won't last.

Thanks PW....I'd been avoiding this thread while they got their ducks in a row online - didn't want to spill the beans more than I already had.
I ran into Tom this past spring and we had a good chat. He got everything sorted and put me to task. I can't wait tto see the site go live - it's some
of my better work to date. Go figure huh? hehehe
So yes, new kite school OS-P-A-M-L-I-N-K-d for operations on Spray Lakes. Beyond the school stuff they have FSer and Ozone demo stock and a location
that's near 90% for wind according to them. I have a feeling I'll be spending a lot of time in Canmore this winter.....

When I was there in February last year I was there for the 10%. Did have a great dog sled tour of the spray area while there. Beautiful spot for
sure.

When Canuck took me there last Christmas the had 360' winds ! Was funny watching my arc open up and spin like a helicopter blade at one point ! :o
Frustrating day but an awsome location!
I'm very happy to see the snowkite thing getting more and more legit in Alberta . It's one awsome province for the sport.
