Cross-country. It doesn't
mean an angry na-
tion ... anything but.
Over the past few years,
cross-country skiing has
gained rapid popularity in
Ontario and no wonder!
Cross-country necessitates
a modest cash outlay, little
training and reaps a wealth
of benefits including
exercise, fresh' air, solitude
(if you *ant it) and a
chance , to enjoy the. pro—
vince's scenic beauty:
Invented by the nomadic
tribes of Northern Asia, its
purpose was to transport
people up mountains,
across plains and down
valleys. In Ontario, its
purpose is to provide one of
the most enjoyable forms of
winter recreation available.
Hydro
voltage
As part of a scheduled series of
tests, Ontario Hydro will reduce
system voltage by 5 per cent on
January 11.
The test will cover two one
hour periods - 12:30 p.m. to 1:30
p.m. and 6:15 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. -
and is not expected to affect
residential, commercial or
industrial customers.
"Very few customers will even
be aware that anything is
happening" says Roger
Whitehead, system operation
manager.
The test is standard procedure,
carried out twice a year to
determine the advantages of
voltage reduction; locate
operating and any customer
problems and ensure that Hydro
operations staff is familiar with
procedures.
The last voltage reduction took
place August this year.
If bad weather or system .
problems occur January 11, the I
testing will be delay ed two days, a
to January 13

both first-time and accom-
plished ski tourers at a
bona fide resort is the well
Marked, machine groomed
trail. Parallel tracks outline
trails to make for easier,
trouble-free skiing. At most
resorts, rest stops are
placed at regular intervals
to prevent overtiring - and
the skier can choose his or
her own trail length.
Comfortable clothing and
a knapsack are important to
every cross-country skier.
Though you may be cold
when you begin, within a
few minutes you'll be quite
warm. The knapsack will
help in both shedding
clothing and in carrying
some energy -foods like
chocolate, nuts and raisins.
The only clothing taboo is
wearing denim jeans.
Providing too little leg room
along the thigh and knee
and too much material
around the ankle, denini
jeans can trip even the best
skiers, absorb moisture and
freeze readily. Almost any
other type of slacks will do,
but woollen knickers and
long socks are the best. •

ditions for your cross-
country skiing trip, the
Barrie Office of the Min-
istry of Industry and
Tourism has several toll-
free numbers to call. Froin

8—THE BRUSSELS POST ' JANUARY 11, 1978 .
Cross-country skiing is gaining
rapid popularity. •
The biggest selling factor
in cross-country skiing is
that it can be done almost
anywhere that there is
snow cover. Though muni-
cipal parks and open fields
are suitable for some cross-
country jaunts, perhaps the
best way to enjoy the
experience is at one of
Ontario's more than 100
cross-country ski resorts.
Trail use fees are nom-
inal at most cross-country
resorts. Prices range from
$1 to $3 for a full day's
skiing and, at Molson's
Park in Barrie, trail use is
free if you provide your own
equipment.
For first-timers, ski
rentals are available at the
ski areas or through sports
outfitters in most larger
towns.
