Yearlings (Development Team)
New for 2023, a seasonal program for kids who want to improve their skiing who might have other activities or are not ready for full days of full tilt skiing every weekend all winter. This program is focused on lift service laps and skill development through mileage. These short, drill and skill focused sessions will allow your little rippers to grow and develop on the mountain while still allowing for time to ski and ride as a family.
Participants MUST be able to ski comfortably on Green terrain at a minimum and be able to load and unload the chairlift safely and independently. If your little cannot load a lift independently a guardian must be present to ride the lift with them.

Old Goats
New in 2023
Our guests asked and we are going to deliver!
We were approached by a number of adults last season, asking for seasonal programs and camps for THEMSELVES not just their kiddos. Many inquired about instruction beyond skiing because they were planning to head into the woods and realized they did not have the requisite skills. So, we will be offering a series of camps, lectures and outings to meet that need with uphill group lessons, SOLO Wilderness First Aid, AIARE, land navigation, and surviving the night in the backcountry.
Ages: 14 and up
Cost and Pricing: TBD
