Learn to XC or Snowshoe Free This Saturday

If there's snow covering the ground at a winter resort near you, odds are excellent you can learn to cross country ski or snowshoe free next Saturday. Some of the areas also offer guided nature hikes on the annual Winter Trail Day, January 10, 2009. During the rest of the month, "learn-to" ski and snowboard deals for first-time and novice downhill ski and snowboard lessons are offered at many resorts.
