FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

I'm a beginner! What do I need to know?

First off, make sure you get to the mountain early. It takes time to get tickets and rental equipment, so getting there on time for a trip is critical if you're picking up lift/rental tickets from me. I may not hear my phone right away once I'm on the mountain.

If you're a beginner, you want to make sure you have waterproof pants- snowboard/ski pants are the best option, but any waterproof pants should do. You'll also want a warm winter coat, high socks, and gloves. Dress warm, because it's cold at the top :)

What about socks/shoes/gloves/hats?
You'll want to wear one pair of high socks to keep your feet warm.

For shoes, you'll want snowboard boots or ski boots specifically made to attach to your skis/snowboard. If you're renting a snowboard/skis, boots are included in the rental, so wear whatever shoes you want to the mountain, since you'll be changing out of them anyway.

Gloves are a must (snow tends to be cold). If you want extra protection, gloves with built-in wrist guards are a great idea. If you already have gloves, you can get snowboard/ski-specific wrist guards to wear over/under your gloves.

You don't need a hat, since you'll need to be wearing a helmet (which you can rent if you don't have one).
