Better Control = More Confidence = More Fun
 

 Novice (90 minutes. Improve your turns and discover green runs)

OK – you’ve skied or snowboarded before, maybe a long time ago, but it’s not your first time on the dance floor. Let Mt. Rose build your confidence by developing your skills to vary the size and shape of your turns, improving speed control and maneuverability on the easiest green slopes. You will continue to develop your turning skills and confidence, and learn more about adapting to changes in terrain and snow on the green runs. Package includes lift access (Ponderosa, Galena, & Flying Jenny), rental equipment, and instruction. Lift Ticket and Rental Equipment may be used all day.

Package Includes:

• All Day beginner lift ticket (2 lifts only)

• All Day rental equipment (ski or snowboard, equipment may be used all day)

• 90-minute lesson

The Mt. Rose Ski & Snowboard School is located on the lower level of the Main Lodge. You can purchase your package and be fitted with your rental gear all in one spot or buy it online.

Intermediate (90 minutes. Introduction to blue runs and parallel skiing)

You have mastered green runs and are motivated to conquer more of the mountain. In an intermediate lesson, you begin skiing some of the easier blue slopes and develop parallel turning skills. These classes focus on control on a little bit steeper blue runs and the movements necessary to initiate parallel turns. Package includes lift access (Lakeview, Ponderosa, & Galena), rental equipment, and instruction. Lift Ticket and Rental Equipment may be used all day.

 Performance Workshops (90 minute group lessons)

Beyond the Blues Workshops

Move beyond intermediate skiing by skiing on groomed blue and some black slopes as you develop the necessary skills. Short radius turns, carving, pole use, rhythm, and small bumps are common lesson themes.

All Mountain Workshops

Smaller bumps, shorter powder runs, more open terrain and lots of instruction for skiers and riders somewhat new to off trail skiing as well as those who just need more practice and feedback before moving up to more challenging situations. Does not include lift ticket.
