NATIONAL SKI MUSEUM
by Mary Bough
Unfortunately we had to cancel arrangements to mount a display of skiing artifacts and photographs of historic value in
the Centennial Centre during 1967. However the interest shown led us to pursue
plans for a National Ski Museum.
In May, 1967 we submitted a report on
facilities available in the Ottawa area to the
annual meeting of the Canadian Amateur
Ski Association. Ottawa was selected as the
site for the National Ski Museum.
To fulfil the responsibilities and privileges of this selection, the Ottawa Committee met with the Director of the National Museum. The principle and purpose of the ski museum have been endorsed as worthy of support and appropriate to
Canada's status in world skiing. Dr. W. E.
Taylor, Director of the Museum offered
the assistance of his technical staff in
planning the ski museum.
Negotiations are underway for a building. The CASA has presented a report on
financial requirements to the federal government. Other ways of getting financial
help have been initiated.
The museum will cover all phases of
skiing history and development. Your interest and help is needed if we are to obtain equipment, records, historical data, and
photographs from everywhere in Canada.
Bud Clark, former Canadian Olympic
skier and President of the CASA has offered to get in touch with key people
throughout the country to promote participation. Advise him of names he might
add to his list at 233-5919.
If you have contributions, contact Wilf
Harris at 728-3119. If you can help in
typing, cataloguing, display, carpentry, or
other ways, call Mary Brough at 728-0281.
It seems appropriate that plans for the
National Ski Museum should start in Centennial year. We feel confident that the
support of Ottawa area skiers will justify
the decision to establish the museum in
the Gatineau Zone.
EDITOR'S NOTE
by Fran Cutler
In this number of the Bulletin you will
find essential information on the Club's
programs for the coming season. Keep it
handy for the racers, midgets, housewives,
and others in your family.
For the February edition we hope to
have a change of pace. We are looking for
news items and features on any aspect of
skiing in Fortune Valley. The editor, directors, and program people notice some
things, but you may have other interesting
suggestiongs. Just phone the editor or tbe
Club Office with your ideas.

Great news for all cross country skitouring and racing enthusiasts! The Centennial Marathon Ski Tour from Montreal
and Ottawa organized last winter by Don
MacLeod, was such a resounding success
that it will be an annual event. At a meeting in Banff last spring, the Canadian Amateur Ski Association sanctioned the Tour
as one of their nationally approved events.
There will be a few changes from last
year's Centennial Tour. This year the
event will take place on February 3rd and
4th, two days only, so as to allow maximum participation, and the trail will run
from Morin Heights in the Laurentians to
Portage De La Nation (northwest of Montebello) the first day and from there to Ottawa on the second day. The total distance
will be about 100 miles and the route this
year will be more scenic than before, passing through rolling wooded and farm country nearly all the way. The overnight stop
will be around Portage De La Nation.
The date of the Tour has been arranged
to coincide with the Ottawa Winter Carnival and there will be appropriate celebrations in the City at the completion of the
tour on the Sunday evening. Again, thanks
to the generosity of the O'Keefe Brewing
Company, prizes for the best individual
and teams will be presented.
We emphasize that the event is primarily
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Over 170 members turned out for the
annual meeting in the new National Library auditorium. In a lively question period members gathered information on hill
maintenance, the National Ski Museum, and
measures to combat reckless skiing.
The new board of directors is listed on
the inside back cover of the Bulletin.
Two skiing -films provided by the Austrian Embassy rounded out the evening.

ON THE TRAILS
Trail Riders' Pre-Season Work
TRADING POST
HAS RECORD YEAR
by Richard Cowan
by Lucien Isabelle
Many days of work have been spent by
the Trail Riders preparing the trails and
trail lodges for the winter. We experienced
very wet weather each weekend dudng the
fall so we must apologize for not brushing
the parts of the trails that lead through the
many swamps and drowned areas. Over
3,000 man hours went into brushing the
trails, repairing bridges and putting up new
signs. Our practice of numbering the runs
on the ski trails has been continued. With
the next printing of the Trail Map, these
additional numbers will be incorporated to
help trail skiers orient themselves if they are
lost. Gordie Hurlbert and Harmon Cahill
have again this year painted all the red
markers indicating the ski trails and have
as well put up markers on the Huron Trail
between the Burma Road and the Pipe
Dream Trail not previously marked. Many
additional signs have been put up to help
direct trail skiers. The Trail Riders have
also taken on the job of painting the interior
of Camp Fortune Lodge. The Trail Riders
have also painted the floor in Huron Lodge
to make it easier for the volunteers who
maintain this lodge to keep the floor clean.
What is Available
For the benefit of new members, or
downhill skiers who would like to try our
trails, the Ottawa Ski Club maintains 60
miles of trails and three trail lodges. Fortune Lodge is usually the starting point for
skiers setting out on the trails. This lodge
has a waxing room where you may prepare
your skis. It has excellent cafeteria service
but for those who wish to cook their own
meals cooking facilities with pots and pans
are provided. One and a half miles west of
Camp Fortune at the junction of Ridge
Road and Keogans Road is Keogans Lodge.
This lodge has a caretaker in attendance;
pots and pans are provided for cooking;
there is no cafeteria. A mile further west
of Keogans Lodge on the Ridge Road is
Huron Lodge. This lodge has cooking facilities and no cafeteria. Four miles by the
Ridge Road or three and three quarter miles
by way of the Western Trail from Camp
Fortune on an excellent promontory is
Western I..odge. It is equipped with cooking facilities but no cafeteria. Huron and
Western Lodges are maintained by the
trail skiers who use these lodges. Please
do your share to help. All Trail Lodges
west of Camp F ortune are linked together
by bush telephone, so in case of emergency
The 1967 Trading Post closed November 26 after seven consecutive weekends.
Total sales reached $28,800, $9,200 above
last year.
Alexander Lodge was broken into twice
during the operation of the Trading Post.
The loss amounted to $700. With the installation of a burglar alarm in every
lodge, this should not happen again.
The new lighting in Alexander is being paid for with Trading Post profits.
The continuing success of the Trading
Post is largely due to the efforts of Paul
Lajoie and his family. They are there
throughout the Trading Post season and
long afterwards work on the bookkeeping
and correspondence.
Next year we plan on improvements in
the operation and service, particularly on
speeding up transactions at the counter.
word can be relayed to Camp Fortune for
assistance.
Search and Rescue
One of the many tasks carried out by the
Ottawa Ski Club Trail Riders is the mounting of searches for lost skiers when required. We would ask for your cooperation
in reporting lost skiers promptly; do not
wait until everyone has left Camp Fortune
ski area before sounding the alarm. Report
any lost persons to the OSCARs or the
OSC Office at Camp Fortune and they in
turn will pass along the message to the
Trail Riders. Please do not report a person
lost and then go out and search yourself;
wait until you can give the Trail Riders a
description and name of the missing person.
If you find the person for whom you have
requested a search please advise the Trail
Riders before going home. If you are not
familiar with the trails, leave the searching
to accredited club units who are equipped
with headlamps for working at night.
Touring Badges
Touring badges will again be available
this year. Keep track of your milease skied
on the trails and apply for these badges.
All you have to do to participate is keep a
log of your trips, dates, distance covered,
and send your application to Richard
Cowan, 305A First Avenue.
Mrs. Peter Glynn has undertaken to run
the Shilly Shally fun races this year and
will be pleased to receive offers of assistance from fellow skiers. She may be reached at 771-8642.

LADIES' COMMITTEE NEWS
825-2196 if you intend joining. Watch the
Bulletin Board in Alexander Lodge early
in January where more information will be
posted as to date, time, cost, a:J.d purchase
place for tickets for these lessons. We anticipate a strong challenge from the ladies
of the Twin Ski Club in Montreal towards
recovering their Silver .Thimble Slalom Trophy, so let's practice and see if we can't
send another winning team down to this
friendly race in February.
Laurentian Trip: Thursday, February 1st,
is the proposed date for our annual excursion to Mont Gabriel, Quebec. Watch
for posters in the various lodges for further information.
Trail Skiing: This was successful when introduced to the ladies last year. This year,
Thursday, February 15th is the tentative
date for the first outing. Watch for further
information in the next bulletin or on the
Board in Alexander Lodge.
Luncheon and Race: The Committee selected Friday, March 8th, as the tentative date
for the grand finale of the 1967/68 season.
A great deal of early preparation and many
helping hands is required to make this a
happy and successful day for all.
Your 1967/68 Committee is as follows:
Chairman Noreen Cunningham, 771-6564;
Co-ordinator (Telephone and Records) Dorothy Babbitt, 749-4590; Treasurer Rollande

I am sure you will all join me in extending sincere thanks and best wishes to Elizabeth Schriever our Ladies' Chairman and
a Director of the Club for the past two seasons.
As the new Ladies' Chairman, I say
"hello" to all my skiing friends, a "thank
you" to those working with me and their
helpers, and "greetings" to all the new
members. Hope to meet you on the slopes
before too long.
The Committee met recently and decided to carry on with the various programmes previously offered for your convenience and enjoyment. We can always
find room for more willing helpers throughout the season, so please call our Co-ordinator, Dorothy Babbitt, 749-4590. Some
jobs require as little as one hour of your
time. This is the best stepping-stone for
getting into the swing of things and a fine
opportunity to meet other ladies to share
your interest in skiing.
Mini-midget Program: The response to this
program has been overwhelming. Those
who have not applied for Club membership
by November 30th have had to be placed on
a waiting list. Parents of registered children
will receive detailed information by mail
early in January before the lessons begin
on Wednesday, January 17th. Connie's
Lodge will be open Wednesday, January
lOth for children enrolled in the Minimidget program.
Slalom Classes: Barb Tevlin reports interest
is high among the ladies. Opening day will
be Tuesday, January 16th, so call Barb at
OSCAR hut with Lockeberg Lodge in background.

A DEVEWPER OF CHAMPIONS
and with the intensely excited spectators,
almost every one with a watch in hand,
started to count off the minutes. Some of
Monsen's admirers, never losing faith, went
out over the trail in the hope of meeting
and encouraging him on.
With only fifty-five seconds to go Monsen appeared, having been advised that it
was do or die. He flashed into sight and
with long strides and powerful timely strokes
of his poles, raced for the finish. He
crossed the tape just six and two-fifth seconds too late, and Condon had added the
brightest light to his already brilliant career."
On February 25th, 1928, Bryce Grayson
Bell won the Canadian Cross Country
championship when he led seventeen competitors at a Canadian Amateur Ski Association Meet held under the auspices of
the Cliffside Ski Club. Next to bring honor to the Club was Halvor Heggtveit (father
of Anne Heggtveit), who won the Canadian
Cross-Country championship of February
25th, 1934, at Shawinigan Falls. Hal had
won the Willingdon Trophy for the City of
Ottawa championship for the preceding three
years, and had been selected for the Canadian Olympic Team in 1932 but could not
obtain leave of absence from his office.
In his final year of racing, 1934, he won
the OSC championship, the City of Ottawa,
the Province of Ontario and the Canadian
championships for cross-country skiing.
The following year John Pringle Taylor
defeated some forty competitors from all
parts of Canada (and from other countries
as well) in the race for the Canadian championships held at Rougemont, Quebec. On
February 26th, 1938, another Heggtveit
became the fifth Ottawa Ski Club Canadian
cross-country champion. Bruce Heggtveit
nosed out A. E. Myall of Sudbury, Ont.
by Herbert Marshall
The measure of the competitive standing of the Club is found in the record of
its achievements in divisional, national and
international competitions. Like all phases
of the Club's activities, competitions evolved with changes in the skiing pattern. The
1910 Club's contests were devoted to jumping. Cross-country racing predominated for
more than a decade after the Club's reorganization in 1919. Since the early 1930's
downhill and slalom events have been most
popular. For the past dozen years the emphasis on programs for midgets and juveniles has resulted in a wider range of competitive events than ever before.
In the cross-country . skiing period the
Club's great trail system afforded an opportunity for the development of first-rate
racers. It was in this field that it became
known as a "developer of champions", In
February 1924, Eddie Condon, wearing
the colors of the Ottawa Ski Club, became
our first Dominion cross-country champion.
The report of this event in the Morning
Journal of February 25th, 1924, is something of a classic and is worth reproducing.
"Running a magnificent race and competing with the best ski runners on the
continent, many of whom have gained real
prominence in their native Norway and
Sweden, Edmund Condon of the Ottawa
Ski Club won the Dominion Championship
for ski running on Saturday afternoon.
The course was about 12 miles in length,
starting at Fairy Lake, circling through the
Gatineau Hills and finishing at the Homestead Inn. The finish was the closest ever
recorded in Canadian ski-running annals.
Rolf Monsen, former title holder, was just
six and two-fifths seconds behind for second position.
"The skiers started at one minute intervals. Condon had drawn number seven
and Monsen eighteen, in a field of ·twentyseven. Condon passed the six men in front
of him and appeared over the hill near the
end, saw the finishing point and raced at top
speed not showing any effects whatever of
his long grind. When his time was noted,
it was apparent to the judges and spectators that he had made a wonderful run and
that Monsen's title hung on a thin thread.
The great Norwegian, for he and Condon
were the favorites, had to cross the line in
less than eleven minutes to beat Condon
and he was nowhere in sight.
Condon, realizing that the Canadian
title ought to be his donned a heavy sweater,

The roof goes on! That's Cassell Lodge in the background.
Have you checked your bindings for
this season? Will they release when they
should? Will they release when they
shouldn't? A few minutes spent now checking your bindings may save you six months
in a cast. No release binding is a fool-proof
method of preventing an injury. But they
certainly do reduce the probability and/ or
the extent of an injury, if and only if, they
are properly cleaned and adjusted. If you
do not know how to do this, consult your
local ski shop, These people are professionals and can make the proper adjustments or at least show you how to make
them,
Speaking of release bindings, we come
to the subject of safety straps. The release
binding protects you; the safety strap protects others. Perhaps it is misleading to say
safety "strap", because it appears there are
other devices on the market to prevent a
loose ski from continuing down the hill
in an uncontrolled manner. We have no
intention of trying to enforce the use of
any particular type of safety device, but
we do require that you use some efficient
type.
Think Snow!
OSCAR
by Larry Rowan
The skiing season is upon us and OSC:AR is again organized and ready to provide on-the-hill first aid in its usual efficient manner. The duty schedule has been
set up for our volunteer patrollers to cover
weekends and holidays. We have a new
patroller, 'Mike Hall, who will be employed
full time, Monday to Friday, excluding
holidays in the Camp Fortune area. The
Skyline a~ea, when it opens, will be patrolled dunng the afternoons by Bill Davies.
Both of these members will be assisted by
volunteers on a casual basis. The Meach
Lake Road area will be covered on weekends in the same manner as last year by
having each member of each duty patrol
from Skyline and Camp Fortune skiing it
one hour each day.
The early snow fall this year has been
a great boon to skiing, but has set back our
building project to some extent. It appears
that our duties will be doubled for a while
in order to complete the project. All duty
patrollers are urged to bring hammers and
saws as well as their kits and jackets each
weekend.

CROSS COUNTRY CHAMPION
GOES TO NEW ZEALAND.
Donald MacLeod, Olympic racer, O.S.C.
coach, and originator and chairman of the
Centennial Marathon Ski Tour, is moving on
to another challenge to keep pace with his
undaunted enthusiasm. In his new position
as Physical Education Director in Taurmunui High School in New Zealand he
will be able to use his talents to further his
ski career as coach and teacher and prepare a cross-country team for -New Zealand for the 1972 Olympics.
Don himself was a product of Canadian junior racing. He won places on the
Canadian F.I.S. cross country squads in
1962 and 1966. He was also a member of
the Canadian Cross Country Olympic Team
in 1964. To achieve this skiing stature,
jobs and education had to become secondary.
This last year Don turned his all-out
efforts to Canada's Centennial.

year.
Children who have not reached their
thirteenth birthday prior to January 1,
1968 are eligible to compete. In order to
maintain an element of fairness in the
competitions, the children have been divided into four separate groups: Boys-girls 10
years and under, and boys-girls 11 and 12
years. However, all competitors will ski the
same courses. The various groups will
race in the following order: Girls 11 and
12 yrs.; Girls 10 yrs. and under; Boys 10
yrs. and under; and Boys 11 and 12 yrs.
Doug Livingstone, our racing coach wiii
again hold training sessions this year, beginning on January 6, 1968. The children
should meet Doug at the Slalom Hill tow
shack at 10:30 a.m. each Saturday.
Kent Boucher has been extremely fortunate in obtaining experienced replacements for his committee this year. Along
with Kent, his wife, Faith, and Bob Crosby,
who are holdovers from last season, Kent
has recruited Jan McKinley, Peggy Johnson Bob Imrie and Art Lovett. However
this' program could not enjoy the success that it does if it were not for the volunteer work provided by the parents of the
competitors. We hope that the parents will
continue to be as generous this season as
they have in the past.

MIDGET PROGRAM EXTENDED
by Harold Fawcett
I 11struction
A new feature of this year's Midget Ski
School is the addition of two extra instruction sessions. There will now be a total of
eight lessons instead of the usual six. In
previous years, statistics have shown a drop
in attendance when inclement weather or
hazardous road conditions prevailed. These
conditions usually occur on at least two of
the six Saturdays each winter. Children
who are unable to attend for these reasons
and others will now have an opportunity to
make up the missed lessons. It is hoped that
each child will now receive a minimum of
six lessons, with the school operadng for
eight weeks.
A few facts to remember: Registration
-none required. Location- Pee Wee Hill,
Camp Fortune. Date and time- Saturday,
January 6, 1968, 1:30 p.m. Durationfrom Sat., Jan. 6/68 to Sat., Feb. 24/68.
Eligibility- O.S.C. members, aged 6 to 12
years. Cost - Free to O.S.C. members.
Instructors- Amateur, trained by members of the professional Camp Fortune Ski
School. Director of School- Roly Beaudry, phone 771-0667.
If you have occasion to visit Camp
Fortune during the week ends of December 16-17 or December 23-24, you may
observe our amateur instructors receiving
an intensive course in ski instruction from
John Hanna and his instructors from the
Camp Fortune Ski School. The knowledge
gained will later be passed on to the children.
Racing
The man in charge of Midget Racing,
Kent Boucher, has announced the date for
the opening races this season. The preliminary giant slalom and slalom are scheduled for 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., January 7, 1968 on the Marshall Hill. These
races are open to all O.S.C. midgets. As in
past years, these two events are used to
rate the children either "A" or "B". Only
the "A" rated children are permitted to
compete in the Gatineau Zone events.
Just a word on the system that is used
in rating the competitors: Two factors are
taken into consideration: ( 1) the child's
ability to ski the course under control.
(2) The racer's time and placing when
compared with the winner. In ( 1) three
experienced, independent officials are located on different sections of the course,
where they are able to judge the ability of

SKI TOURS- 1967 I 68
The trips are marked as easy (*), average ( * *) or more difficult than average
(***) in order to give you some idea of
ability required. Length of trip (last year's
range was from about 9 to 20 miles), and
the terrain to be covered influence this.
Snow conditions are not taken into account.
Local trips are scheduled on Sundays
throughout the skiing season. The details
of organization will be handled by the
leader concerned. Please telephone the
leader during the preceding week (preferably between 7 :00 and 9:00 in the eveping)
for information on starting point and time.
Transportation may be arranged if necessary.
by Murray Anderson
Tours into areas off the regular trail
system will, as in previous years, be sponsored jointly by the Alpine Club of Canada
(Ottawa Section), the Canadian Nordic
Society and the Ottawa Ski Club.
For the benefit of newcomers to skitouring, let's devote a moment to equipment considerations. TOURING as CROSSCOUNTRY has a racing connotation in the
market-place. But racing equipment is too
light to be well-suited to our purposes.
Good touring skis are broad enough to give
good flotation in unpacked snow although
reasonably light and sturdy. Many good
makes now have full steel edges. Some
experienced skiers of my acquaintance use
low-priced downhill skis -the kind without a plastic base -rugged and economical. About the only way a plastic base can
be used is through application of Klister to
prevent backslip - messy but effective if
you must compromise on skis for downhill use as well.
Bindings for touring must allow the
heel to rise freely while keeping your toe
firmly on the ski. The usual fitting is
known as a Tempo binding. Again, compromises won't give the best of either world
but there are at least a couple of safety
toe fittings available which, when used with
front throw cables may be used for either
type of skiing.
Boots need to be fairly flexible to allow
a nice long stride. They must be warm and
comfortable as you will be away from the
lodge for a few hours at a time. The same
remark applies to clothing: light, loose and
comfortable, and a spare sweater in your
rucksack.
Waxes mystify people needlessly. Downhill waxes must be avoided as they slide
equally well either way; trail or climbing
waxes are different. They slide worward
and stick when you put your weight on the
ski. However there are different grades for
use according to the temperature and kind
of snow. There are two questions to answer: are you sticking down, or are you
having throuble with backslip? If sticking
down, apply a wax for warmer conditions
than the one you now have on; if backsliding apply a colder wax. It is best to take a
couple of grades of wax with you to cope
with changing conditions. Most of the slopes
in the Gatineau area can be walked up
without sidestepping or herringboning with
the right wax under you.

The weekend of March 9/10 has a local trip scheduled, and in addition, a trip
planned for the Adirondack Mountains of
northern New York State. This is alpine
touring so the requirements are a bit different. Although a good wax job will get
a strong skier by, the usual equipment is
a pair of downhill skis with dual-purpose
bindings and climbing skins. There are excellent runs where it is nice to be able to
use downhill techniques.

THE GATINEAU ZONE
ALPINE CHRISTMAS CAMP
by B. Shaver
The Camp this year will be open to advanced midget, juvenile, junior and senior
racers. A fee of five dollars a head for
midgets and seven dollars each for all others
will be required on the first day of the
Camp. Registration will commence at 9:00
a.m. on December 26 in Lockeberg Lodge
and coaching will begin on the hills immediately. The Camp will run through the
week and terminate on Sunday, December
31 . Races will be held at various stages
throughout the week under the direction of
the Head Coach, Bob McLennan.
The Gatineau Zone Alpine Team will
be chosen at the conclusion of the Camp
on the performance of the racers during
the week and on the results of the Fall
Training Program. All Alpine competitors
within the Zone are invited to come out
and benefit from this week of instruction
under the best coaches in the area.
"THE COMING SCENE
IN FORTUNE VALLEY"
1. What to watch for in the weeks ahead
New lights coming to brighten up
everyone's ski nights. We are confident
of having new white mercury vapour
lighting on Slalom, Pee Wee, plus Clifford and Marshall Hills by early January. This will mean a probable extension to the number of nights available
for skiing. Pinault, of course, is already
mercury lighted.
2. New change in Alexander Lodge
An efficient express service counter
will appear to the extreme left of the
present cafeteria. Only fast items such
as coffee, cold drink and packaged items
will be available. Watch for more vending machines also to serve you better.
3. New office location in
Fortune Valley
Watch for a new temporary club office to serve members and visitors better during the ski season. This office
will be set up near the ski shop and
ticket office and will also handle lost
and found items as well as general information.
4. Members guest privileges
Senior members wishing to bring
guests to the club, may do so by signing
their blue guest privilege cards and filling out the names and addresses of their
guests.
Members need not necessarily accompany guests to the area. Guests have
only to present themselves and their blue
cards to the ticket office in order to
purchase lift tickets at members prices.
