Owl's Head mountain in Quebec, Canada is part of CADS (Canadian Association for Disabled Skiers) - www.fshe.org. We're a team of about 40 volunteer teachers with 40 students that come every two weeks (2 teachers per student).
We have equipment ranging from Monos to duals to Bi-skis to three and four-track.
Great place to learn adaptive skiing as the mountain and its customers are very fond of our foundation!
