LEARN TO SKI OR SNOWBOARD

If you’ve never skied or snowboarded before but think it’s time to get out on the slopes, this is your starting point. Learn the basic skills to kick-start your passion for skiing or snowboarding with dedicated and professional instructors.

Start Times: 10:00 am (Morning) 1:00 pm (Afternoon)
Arrive EARLY – 30min to 1 hour (best practice)
Lift Ticket: Beginner Lifts ONLY (Magic / Wizard / Galena)
Lesson: 2 Hour Lesson
Lift tickets and rental equipment are good for the entire day!
Ski Package: Skis, boots, and poles
Snowboard: Snowboard + Boots (limited slots – subject to sellout)

Learn-at-your-own-pace lessons (offered on weekends and holidays) focus on students migrating from one learning station to another (5 in all: Orientation, Slide, Glide, Wedge and Stop Flying Jenny and Riding the Chair), allowing the guests to progress at their pace. This method allows for those individuals who master specific skills at an advanced pace to move quickly through the stations but also allows unlimited practice time for those having challenges in a given area to have ample practice time. Students can even take a break and return and rejoin a station anytime. If you are learning to ski and ride with friends or family, you can choose to progress individually or at your own pace.

LESSON ESSENTIALS

Lesson Redemption

  • Arrive EARLY – plan on 30 min or even an hour early. It’s always good practice to be ahead of the game. Getting through the Rental Line and having some extra time is less stressful as well
  • The Lesson & Rental pickup is on the Lower Level of the Main Lodge. Enter through the front of the main lodge, make a right, and head downstairs.
  • Redeem your Lesson package at the desk, and once you have been fitted for equipment, the Lesson meeting area is outside on show behind the lodge.
  • Lesson times are set by online reservations.

what to wear

Winter weather in the mountains can change quickly, so being appropriately dressed for the day is an important step to take before your visit. Here are some recommendations to ensure you have the right gear:

DO YOU NEED TO change or CANCEL?

Need to cancel or move a reservation?

If you cannot make your lesson, please fill out the reservation refund form. Please request a REFUND in the notes. Then to rebook*, simply buy a new lesson at a later date. We ask that you do this 24 hours before lesson time to free up space in those lessons. If there is an unforeseen event prohibiting your travel on the same day, please contact Rosebuds by calling 775-849-0704, ext. 223 to let them know that you will not be able to make it to the lesson.

*Please note that there may be a service fee applied for rescheduling or cancelations that are not due to mountain closures.
