Alpine Responsibility Code

Like any activity, there are some rules of the road, etiquette to follow. Everyone's goal
is to have a fun, educational and safe experience. We provide the safe environment
for you to enjoy.

There are inherent risks with skiing and snowboarding, with many factors affecting
your demeanor on the slopes: snow conditions, weather, snow features and lifts to
name a few. Understanding your limitations and abilities within the elements ultimately
affect your personal safety. Awareness of physical conditions is a key.

There is a code of ethics that has been established by the National Ski
Area Association which covers skiers and snowboarders alike. The prudent thing to
do is to become familiar with them and conduct youself accordingly. Failure to follow
these steps may result in loss of skiing/riding privileges.

The Code

There are elements of risk that common sense and personal awareness can help reduce.
Regardless of how you decide to use the slopes, always show courtesy to others.
Please adhere to the code listed below and share with others the responsibility for a
