Never skied or snowboarded? Everyone has a first day, and this is a place to begin
Our Learn to Ski/Board package welcomes ages 6 through adult for a first lesson or a very beginner refresher on the beginner hill. It includes a Beginner Area lift ticket, ski or snowboard rentals, and a one-hour lesson. The listed price is $95 on weekdays or $110 on weekends; with your own equipment, it’s $90 or $105. Helmets can be added for $12.
Choose 10:00 AM, noon, 2:00 PM, 4:30 PM, or 6:00 PM on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. Tuesday and Wednesday lessons run at 4:30 PM and 6:00 PM. Reserve online and arrive at least one hour early so you can gear up without rushing. Walk-in lessons may be available, but reservations are strongly recommended.
This lesson introduces the same beginner basics each time. You can take it once more if you need another introduction, but it isn’t designed as an ongoing progressive class. When you’re ready for your next step, explore private lessons, Beyond Beginner, or our After School, Saturday/Sunday, Adult Progressive, and Adventure Education programs.

Snow Access Pass provides access to the Magic Carpet Area at the base of the slope. Space permitting, you can purchase the Snow Access Pass to work with a child or beginner learning to ski. One parent per child learning. NO SPECTATORS allowed on the mountain. Everyone on the mountain MUST have a ticket and be actively participating in skiing/boarding or teaching. A parent may not be on the snow watching a lesson but can watch from the firepit area at the base of the slope behind the fence. A parent teaching a child is not required to have their own equipment in the Magic Carpet Area but must have proper footwear (aka snow boots).
No parent’s will be permitted on the snow to spectate a child’s lesson. There is an area for this by the firepit at the BASE of the slope behind a fence. We must enforce this policy so that there is enough space for the children to learn and for the parent’s safety!
