My teenage son took snowboarding lessons and was soon zipping around on his own. My ski lessons were with Jay, a retired Air Force colonel with more than 37 years of skiing experience under his belt. His passion for the sport, coupled with his bountiful enthusiasm and encouragement, made the lesson all the more rewarding. We both felt safe exploring the terrain in high-quality rental gear.
