Lessons and clinics are available for all ages and abilities, with many options on class sizes and times. The school has also added a variety of new ski lesson opportunities, many geared toward getting people of all ages started in snowboarding. Several snowboard courses will be for adults only, and taught by adult instructors, including women-only sessions. People can also take a custom lesson where groups of four or more design their own lesson for snowboarding, Telemark or Alpine skiing at the time and day of their choosing. For families with young children, the Bunny Hutch day care center is available with a trained staff to watch children who don't ski, or want to call it a day earlier than mom and dad.
Child care is available for a half day or full day.
If you want to go beyond the groomed slopes of a ski resort, but can't afford the second mortgage-sized tab for helicopter skiing in an exotic locale, cat skiing could be your answer. Brundage Mountain Ski Area offers cat ski trips into the backcountry via tractor-like vehicles that put you on top of uncut and ungroomed mountains where you can leave it to your skill and imagination to descend to the bottom. The snowcats leave Brundage lodge early in the morning and travel to nearby Granite, Slab and Sargent's mountains, which range from 7,800 to 8,500 feet elevation. Skiers and snowboarders are led by expert guides down open and tree-dotted runs ranging from 800 to 2,500 feet in length. Guides provide training on the use of avalanche transceivers, which are provided free to each guest.
