SAFETY GUIDELINES AND EXPECTATIONS

 

As part of our mountain community, we invite you to review our Safety Guidelines And Expectations. These shared principles are designed to keep everyone safe & accountable. Guests and employees are expected to observe the following guidelines and treat both the mountains and each other with respect.

​

MOUNTAIN SAFETY IS A PARTNERSHIP

​

​Ski California and its member resorts in California and Nevada created the Mountain Safety Guide to educate our guests on how to ski and snowboard responsibly and safely while having a fun experience. Learning and practicing what is contained in this guide, using common sense, and making good decisions will contribute to your safety and the safety of all guests.

YOUR Responsibility Code

Practice safe skiing and riding habits by following YOUR Responsibility Code.

• Always stay in control. You must be able to stop or avoid people or objects.

• People ahead or downhill of you have the right-of-way. You must avoid them.

• Stop only where you are visible from above and do not restrict traffic.

• Look uphill and avoid others before starting downhill or entering a trail.

• You must prevent runaway equipment.

• Read and obey all signs, warnings, and hazard markings.

• Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas.

• You must know how and be able to load, ride and unload lifts safely. If you need assistance, ask the lift attendant.

• Do not use lifts or terrain when impaired by alcohol or drugs.

• If you are involved in a collision or incident, share your contact information with each other and a ski area employee.

​

ACCOUNTABILITY

​

• Take personal responsibility for your actions and safety.

• Be aware of your physical limitations, ski and ride terrain appropriate for your ability level.

• Arrive prepared for varied mountain conditions.

 

RESORT-SPECIFIC GUEST CONDUCT STANDARDS AND SAFETY RULES

​

• Each Cali Pass resort has its own set of guest conduct standards and safety rules. These rules are designed to address the specific issues faced at the resort, and every resort is unique.

• It is your responsibility to know, understand and comply with the standards and rules of a resort when you are on the resort’s premises or using the resort’s property.

• Guests must present a valid ticket or pass when requested by resort staff.

• Always check the resort’s Mountain Safety and Guest Conduct pages on its website before skiing, riding or visiting the resort. Note that some Cali Pass resorts may refer to Mountain Safety and Guest Conduct standards by a different name. Regardless of the name, it is your responsibility to know, understand and comply with the rules of a resort before skiing, riding or visiting the resort.
