Former Crazy Canuck skier Dave Irwin plans to cap a miraculous recovery from a near-fatal wipeout with a return to the slopes on the first anniversary of his accident.  "I will be skiing March 23 and that will get me back at who I am," said Irwin, who suffered severe head injuries last year while practising for a race at Sunshine Village resort in the Rocky Mountains near Banff.
