Four Mountain Sports rental shops are located at nine locations throughout the bases of our four mountains.

Helmets: Helmets are highly recommended for skiing and snowboarding. Helmets are also required for all participants, regardless of age, when participating in Terrain Park & Pipe lessons. While helmets may reduce the severity of a head injury, the best way to avoid accidents is to know and abide by the skier/rider responsibility code.

Groups may choose to travel to other mountains, depending on group plans for the second, third, or fourth days of the program.
