FAQ

What should I bring?
Warm clothes, preferably in layers. If you have very large feet (ie. +Men’s size 12+), please bring sturdy boots so you can use our adjustable bindings, since large ski boot sizes are limited.

We know how to ski, we just need equipment and want to try the river trail ski trails. Do you rent?
Yes. Skis are available for rent on a first come first serve basis, by donation. Suggested donation of $15 for adult skis.



Do you have kids skis?
Yup.

I have a disability that affects my ability to ski, can you help?
Yes! We have specialized equipment that may come in handy, depending. We also are familiar with some of the barriers folks with visual or other impairments may face and are here to help. We strongly recommend reaching out to us to ask questions you may have and confirm availability of equipment if needed. Let us know which event you are planning to attend and anything we should know. Thank you.

Let’s ski!
