In December, Saturdays are training. From January, Friday nights are practice and Saturdays are optional supplemental sessions. Races run on Sundays from mid-January through February. The five-day holiday camp falls between Christmas and New Year. State finals are in March for those who qualify.

In December the team trains on Saturdays. From January, practice moves to Friday nights, Saturdays become optional supplemental sessions, and races run on Sundays. Six weeks of that is a rocket ship to expert skiing. Kids who arrive as decent intermediate skiers do not stay intermediate.

Bring

What to pack

  • Helmet — required, no exceptions
  • Goggles, and a spare lens for flat light
  • Warm layers and a change of socks
  • Water and real food, not just snacks
  • Your lift pass
