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:
Need to cancel or move a reservation?
Please fill out the reservation refund form if you cannot make your lesson. Please request a REFUND in the notes. Then, to rebook*, buy a new lesson later. We ask that you do this 24 hours before lesson time to free up space in those lessons. If an unforeseen event prohibits your travel on the same day, please get in touch with Ski School by calling 775-849-0704, ext. 221, to inform them that you cannot attend the lesson.
*Please note that a service fee may be applied for rescheduling or cancelations that are not due to mountain closures.
