All of our winter trips offer downhill skiing and snowboarding and most of our weekend trips offer cross country skiing and snowshoeing as well.

We plan our trips so you can enjoy the combination of convenience and comfort, and experience some of the best skiing in the East. Trips are run by dedicated volunteers who love skiing and are enthusiastic about sharing that interest with others. Trip leaders organize group trail/lift passes, facilitate rental and lesson arrangements, suggest group activities and keep the group on schedule. On weekend trips, the leaders decide where the group will ski each day based on snow and weather conditions, availability of rental equipment, crowd levels, and proximity to accommodations.

You’ll travel with a group of fun loving people who enjoy outdoor activities and sharing good times. Our comfortable bus, driven by professionals, allows care free travel to places where you can be assured of modern facilities and the best conditions possible. We stay in lodges that offer comfortable rooms, dependable service, pleasant facilities to relax in and hardy meals. If the hotel is not “slope-side”, it is only minutes away from several great places to ski.

From the moment you reserve a spot on a trip, everything you need will have been though of. And if something unexpected comes up, we’ll do our best to take care of it. Most questions can be answered by our FAQs page. If you need to speak to us, call or email; we’ll get back to you quickly.

We do NOT provide rental equipment or instruction. Equipment is available to rent at the ski areas and lessons can be arranged with the area’s ski school. Often a combined rental/lesson/pass package for beginners is available for a reasonable price.

For participants under the age of 18, please call before making your reservation. An adult parent or guardian must accompany the child on the trip. The club will determine if it is feasible to allow the child to participate, based on particulars about the child, the guardian, the accommodations and group make-up. Our goal is that everyone should have a good time, including children.
