The modest investment in
equipment and the suitability of
cross-country 'skiing to most
terrains have made it an
attractive sport to many.
Unfortunately, in this part of
Southern Ontario public areas
available and suited to this. snort ;
are very limited due to, extensive
"agriculture practices. However,
the Ausable-Bayfield
Conservation Authority, whose
major objective is the conserva-
tion of our environment and its
renewable resources, has
acquired many natural areas
throughout the watersheds and is
• finding that such areas are
becoming more and more attrac-

recreation. It is in this light that
the Conservation Authority has
realized the necessity to accomm

recreational demands as they
become evident. Most winter
sports are' compatible with the
conservation aims of the
Authority for these lands.

aware of the interest in cross-

enquiries as to the suitability of
their lands for this purpose, •
