Planning on Renting Equipment??


Time Well Spent:
  • Schedule enough time to pass through the Rental Shop and still get to your lesson. It can take up too 45 minuets for the first time visitor to be fitted properly and receive all their gear before exiting towards the slopes. If traveling with a family, allow even more time due to the number of people and diverse ages. Please visit our Ski & Snowboard Lessons for class times.
  • To help with this constraint, plan your arrival before or close to 8:30 AM. Our busiest times are from 10 AM to Noon then again at 3 PM to 4:30PM. The Rental Shop is open from 8AM to 5PM. The lifts are open from 8:30AM to 4PM.


The Proper Fit:
  • To help with a proper fitting boot a few steps need to be taken before arrival. Only one pair of (thin) socks should be worn. Multiple layers of socks can cause friction in the boot and result in blisters. Thick heavy socks may be too warm and cause sweating that can cause irritations.
  • While making sure that a water proof pair of pants is warn to keep you warm and dry, make sure that the cuffs of the pants are wide enough or elastic enough to go over the top of the boots. This will help keep snow out and give a proper fit around the calf muscle.


But I'm almost 18:
  • If you are under the age of 18 you will need to have a parents or guardians signature to rent. This is something that will not be overlooked.


Security Deposit:
  • A deposit will need to be left while the rental equipment is rented. A valid drivers license; credit card (we will photocopy); valid military id; valid picture school id or $250 in cash. All deposits will be returned or destroyed after the rental gear is returned.


Staying for a while?
  • Consecutive multi-day discounts are available.
  • If you are staying for multiple days, let us know when you arrive in the Rental Shop at the deposit counters. If you would like to, you can hold on to your rental gear over night. This saves time and gets you out on the slopes faster.
  • Please remember that your deposit will be kept over night if you hold the gear over night.
