Find Your Rhythm on Snow

ELEVATE YOUR PERFORMANCE!

First Tracks (presented by TELUS)

Ages 10+

First Tracks is about more than fresh snow — it’s about starting your day in the very best way. Step onto the mountain at sunrise, before regular lift loading, and the groomers, quiet runs, and (when conditions allow) untouched powder.

These early-morning sessions offer space, flow, and focus, whether carving freshly groomed trails or finding soft snow lines while the mountain is still asleep. With an experienced instructor guiding the morning, First Tracks delivers a calm, unrushed, and purposeful start to the day.

Private groups of up to 3 participants, ages 10 and up (participants aged 10–16 must be accompanied by an adult). Registration must be completed by 3:45 pm the day prior. Sessions are offered daily, meeting at the Slopeside Café fireplace at 7:45 am, with lift loading at 8:00 am.

Details:

  • 2-hour session (8:00–10:00 am)
  • Price:  $349 (for up to 3 guests)
  • Additional guests may be added (up to 5) for $105 per extra guest.

A sunrise experience designed around space, flow, and making the most of the mountain — whatever the conditions
