Resort Uphill Policies


Please remember, as an uphill skier, you are a guest of these resorts.  Please respect their policies, employees, and patrons in order to keep this uphill privilege available.

Choose your skin track to maximize visibility to other traffic while still maintaining a safe distance from such traffic.  In low-lighting conditions, think along the lines of bicycle safety, with a solid white headlamp in front, blinking red light(s) in back, and reflective clothing.  Remember that these are policies for uphill travel within the ski resort boundary, as opposed to backcountry access, which requires utilization of safe backcountry travel skills through potentially dangerous terrain.


Things are changing quickly with uphill access at ski resorts. If you do not see a link to your preferred ski area or the link doesn’t take you to the current uphill access information, please Google your local resort and ‘uphill access’ to find out their uphill travel policy. If you don’t find anything on their website, give them a call to confirm whether or not they allow uphill travel and if they do what their policy is before skinning up.

If you have any updates to these policies (changes, additions, etc) please email us from the contact us page.
