Ski Days |

|
Sharpen your skis! Our Over the Hill Gang International ski guides are getting theirs ready so they can lead our members around their favorite mountain. Join us for Guided Ski Days, one of the most popular programs OTHGI offers. It’s a great way to meet friends to ski with and learn the mountain safely at the same time. When you ski with us, no reservation is needed, but please be at the starting location early enough that you can be properly placed with a group of similar ability and stamina. Come a few minutes early, have a cup of coffee, get acquainted and then ski off with a group that is just right for you. Most guide programs start in December and don’t operate over Christmas-New Years; some (but not all) are not available over Martin Luther King or Presidents Day holidays. Snowmass starts in early January. The ski days are free and available only to OTHGI members The following resorts will again offer our OTHGI Guided Ski Days: |
