This week is Skiing History Week. Some may remember that last year this event was held here in Stowe. This year it’s being held in Squaw Valley. So this week’s trivia question is:
Which of this year’s U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame inductees was the youngest fully certified ski instructor in the history of the Professional Ski Instructors of America?

It must be Airborne Ed Ferguson of the Free Style movement back in the late 60’s & 70’s when I was just starting to ski and loved the Wayne Wong style of having fun on the snow.

It had to be “Airborne” Eddie Ferguson. We called them “freedoggers” back in the day in a disparaging tone of voice but of course we were not-so-secretly jealous of the amazing things they could do on skis.
