Ski Ability Levels
All Ski School lessons, clinics, programs and workshops are intended to teach safety while helping students improve their skiing skills and preparing them for the next level of proficiency. Instructors will tell each student when he or she is ready for the next level.
Skiers may be asked to demonstrate a controlled stop before using any chairlift.
