Additional Information

This year's on-hill format follows last years - no resort run beverage outlets on the hill or fenced in areas.  Why do we do this, you ask?  So you can bring your own beverages (BYOB) to the on-hill party.  You will not be allowed up the mountain without a valid lift ticket or 2009/10 season pass and equipment.

Be sure to plan ahead if you'll be indulging in beverages -designate a driver or arrange for a ride if you live in the immediate area.  Quickie Cab will be coordinating rides out of the Clock Tower Lodge.  Rates are determined by Quickie Cab. 

Gather your friends, load up the backpacks, strap on your skis and snowboards and have a memorable and safe day on the mountain!
