Chic gave his first slide show to the Calgary Mountain Club in 1967 after completing the Jasper to Lake Louise Ski Traverse. Since then he has made hundreds of presentations to clubs and conferences. Today Chic has nine professionally produced shows. Chic’s presentations are a lively mix of humour, exciting stories, philosophy and a love of high places.
Custom-made slide shows can be created on request.
