What is ski? • A ski is narrow strip of wood, plastic, metal or combination thereof worn underfoot to glide over snow. Substantially longer than wide and characteristically employed in pairs, skis are attached to boots with bindings, either with a free, lockable, or permanently secured heel. • Originally intended as an aid to travel over snow they are now mainly used recreationally in the sport of skiing.
What is JIM & WS? • JIM&WS made a humble beginning by conducting the first Basic mountaineering Course on 24 June 85 with seventeen students. From there on, it has never looked over the shoulders. Owing to disturbed conditions in the valley in late 80'sand reluctance on the part of the students, to come to Aru the Institute was shifted across Banihal to Tringla, Batote in Aug 90. Despite odds, the Institute continued to train adventure lovers. Later, with the peace rising back in the valley and rise in tourist activities, it was decided to move back the Institute in the valley in October 2003.
