Fall Semester in the Rockies 9 Finishes!

Fall Semester in the Rockies (FSR) 9 returned Tuesday from their Winter Snowboarding section. All 11 students had huge smiles on their faces and conveyed surprise at the warm temperature in Lander. Cold temperatures during the winter section were cured by a fun time and “shredding the gnar gnar and the pow pow”. FSR Nine had the only snowboarding section of the winter. The rest of the semesters’ winter sections were characterized by telemark skiing.   FSR 9 was able to spend eleven days living and traveling in the Absaroka Mountains of Togwottee Pass Wyoming. Students gained experience building and living in snow shelters and traveling on Voile split boards with packs and sleds. They completed basic avalanche awareness and most importantly finished their semester in superb style!
