NEED TO KNOW

These are things we’ve learned

Lodge 2, our main lodge, is where you can buy your lift tickets, sign up for lessons, and pick up your rental gear.  Lodge 1 does not have ski school or rental services, so be sure to pass by Lodge 1 and come up to Lodge 2.  

Get here early enough to allow time to pick up your rentals and get your kids or yourself suited up for lessons – one hour minimum is usually sufficient.  With wintery roads, excited kids, and new experiences, it will take longer than you think.  Have patience and wait for the reward!

Multiweek lessons check in at the far left outside ticket window of Lodge 2 – the sign with the snowman that says “Multiweek Lesson Check-In.”  There you will get your tickets and lesson voucher.  You will need to check in here each morning you have a lesson!

You can check in or sign up for regular daily lessons at the Snow Sports Center, inside the bottom floor of Lodge 2.  

All lessons and rentals require a parent’s signature.  If you are not accompanying your child to the mountain, please /download/, fill out & sign, and send it with your minor when they come up.

The Rental Shop gets very busy in the mornings when checking out equipment – if you are not renting or helping your child get equipped, please wait upstairs in the cafeteria level or elsewhere.

Mountain environments can change quickly and drastically – always dress for the worst!  No jeans, and avoid cotton garments, as they soak up moisture.  Goggles are necessary if snow starts flying or if the sun is bright.  Don’t forget sunscreen in the spring!  Beanies or wool hats are needed to keep the head and ears warm.  Fleece face masks can prevent frostbite in a blizzard.  Don’t throw on multiple layers of socks as they will constrict circulation and make your feet even colder.  Layers are best!

If parking gets busy and you have to park a long ways away from the lodge, we have free and convenient shuttles that will pick you up and bring you to the lodge of your choice.

We also have cheap, convenient bus service from Spokane on most weekends and holidays.  Check out the Bus Page for more information.
