I am taking my nephew and niece (the same nephew who's board got ripped) to the boat March 12-19. Looking for an excellent instructor to teach all mountain, maybe some park. I am thinking 2-3 1/2 days privates. One is lower intermediate, the other is intermediate. If you have any names or can hook me up with a fellow Bear, let me know.

Finndog...just in case you are thinking about switching instructors. Corey Girard and Dave Corley are superb instructors. I don't know the ages of your niece and nephew, but Corey and Dave are in their mid-20's, and are excellent skiiers and instructors. Sorry for the late notice, but thought I would toss it out there.

*I taught at Steamboat with Corey and Dave and would recommend them to anyone.

Rusty just said that since you posted they were ski instructors, that was all. No worries. I;m sure you meant they were boarders as well.
