Delirium Dives

"A snowflake is the most beautiful form of water"



That is one of the observations of a lifelong skier who:

Discovered a skiing paradise in the Canadian Rockies Experienced a few hard lessons in a snow school Survived his first descent of a double black diamond Skied with Olympic champion Nancy Greene Tried to ski the same track as World Cup racers Let his mind win over matter when he broke his ribs skiing Became a professional ski instructor at the age when most people retire from their jobs Spent a season teaching at the local ski hill Tells about it all in this entertaining book, a blend of travel, sport and memoir, written with gusto, humour, and love of skiing.
