So I started riding last year and totally fell in love the sport. This summer I'd like to go on a mountain biking vacation, but as my skill is still pretty limited I was thinking about a possible skills camp instead. I've found a couple online but I'd appreciate some input on the different camps out there and if the quality is worth the cost.

www.catamountoutdoor.com or www.coyotehillcamp.com

Both of these are in VT.. The Coyote Hill camp is run by an ex NORBA pro and looks pretty cool.

I'm originally from VT, so going to VT isn't really much of a vacation. The coyotehill camp does seem pretty cool though for something to do on the weekend. The catamount camp seems to be mostly for kids (I'm 25). What about out west, any good camps out there? I know there are camps up at whistler, but I've only been riding for one season and not sure I'm quite ready for that yet.

Bob - if you have time to drive into Mass - justbill from the NEMBA forum puts on a skills clinic that gets great reviews - this could free you up to take a plain old mountain biking vacation out west or something. Just a thought.
