Top Ten Ways to be Safe on the Mountain

Be aware, ski with care. Do your part to help keep the slopes fun for everyone!

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. At 10,000+ feet…altitude sickness can hit hard and fast – proper hydration will help keep it at bay.

Get in shape. When bodies are tired and out of shape, it’s easier to get hurt.

Know “Your Code.” Memorize your seven responsibilities of the Code and you could win a prize during National Safety Awareness Week.

Ski with a buddy. Even on a powder day!

Space not speed. Slow down Mario! It’s not NASCAR. Watch your speed and keep your distance when on crowded slopes.

Look up hill when trails merge. Seriously? Don’t make us explain.

Obey all posted signs. If it’s closed, it’s closed for a reason…even if the snow is whiter on the other side of the fence!

Use proper safety gear. Sorry bindings with safety straps from the ‘80’s just don’t cut it anymore!

Know your limits. no need to be macho, there’s nothing worse than a guy crying for his mother on a black diamond run.
