Why Choose This Trip:
Adventure awaits, whether you are an avid skier or just want to enjoy a getaway amongst snow-filled mountains and crisp fresh air, this trip is for you!

The TC will keep communication open with all registered members through emails and texts leading up to and during the trip. Once at the resort a welcome party will be held to serve as an orientation to the mountain area. While on the mountain happy hours and gatherings will be planned.
