Expedition Ski Programs

 

Clinic of the Day for Skiers

Not sure how to handle what’s on the mountain today?  Wishing you had a little more skill skiing powder, wind buff, spring snow, or whatever else awaits you on the day you arrive?  This two hour, hard charging clinic is terrific for people wanting to brush up on or learn to master the skills needed to handle the conditions of the day.  

 

Clinics focus on the conditions of the day, i.e. powder, trees, corn etc. Our guides lead by example and use the chairlift for instructional time. Don’t be intimidated by what lies in front of you; in just two hours you will learn the skills needed to make the rest of your day on the snow much more enjoyable.

Cost: $50 per person; two hour clinic

Adult Super Groups

Explore all the legendary terrain Kirkwood has to offer with the  same coach and guests each week.  These are 3 hour sessions meeting every Sunday and are just what the skiing doctor ordered.  Get the advantages of cutting lift lines, receiving feedback on your personal skiing and going places you never knew existed at Kirkwood.  Skiing with the same coach each weekend gives you the added advantage of developing a relationship with them so they can better understand your learning style, thus helping you achieve the breakthrough you desire.  Add the benefit of the camaraderie with the other guests and you get a powerful dynamic that pushes progression for each participant.  Groups will be split based on ability and speed to insure good group dynamics and pace.  Groups will ski for 5 consecutive Sundays with the 6th Sunday being used as a make up day or bonus day.
