Tips for First Timers
New to skiing or snowboarding? Don’t worry—you’re in good hands! Learning to ski or snowboard can seem challenging, especially on your own, which often leads to frustration and slower progress. But at Mission Ridge, you’ll never have to tackle it alone! Book a private one-on-one lesson online at https://www.missionridge.com/lessons/or join a group of fellow beginners for a supportive and fun learning experience.
Prefer to hit the slopes solo? No problem! Even first-timers will find the chairlift experience at Mission Ridge beginner-friendly. It’s normal to feel a bit nervous about getting on or off the lift, but the staff is there to help ensure a smooth ride. Simply give the lift operators a thumbs-down signal, and they’ll slow the chair for a safe and easy exit.
Relax and Refuel
In between runs, take a break to recharge. Use the conveniently located free-standing racks to store your equipment then head over to the Hampton Lodge or the Midway Lodge, if you’re closer, for some wings, chili fries and refreshing drinks for the fuel you’ll need to hit the slopes once again.
Whether you're a seasoned pro or a snow sport newbie, Mission Ridge Ski Resort has everything you need for an incredible day out on the slopes. So don’t miss out—gather your gear, grab your ticket, and make this ski season one to remember!
