    Where should I take my Dad?

    My dad and I want to go heliskiing next March, in Canada I think. Neither of us rip, but we can hold our own on most terrain. Not pretty but serviceable. I should mention that he will be 68 at the time and as much as I would like not to say so, it may be the only time Dad will ever get to do this. I would also say that while I am happy to sleep in the dirt, Dad likes a few creature comforts as befit a guy of his tenure. So, I'm soliciting recommendations and advice. Where Would Maggots Take Their Dad?

    I don't know where you will end up going but get him on a pair of K2 Pontoons and watch him rip. Reverse camber is not optional it is mandatory, seriously.
