Mark
Steele has been telemarking for seven years, two years competitively,
and was an alpine ski instructor in Telluride, CO for three years. Although
he is an experienced back-country and extreme skier, his forte is on-piste
steep bumps.
His goals are to continue skiing and competing in New England with two trips out west over the winter.
