Stay Safe on the Mountain

Stay Safe on the Mountain with Tips from the Sugarbush Team!

Stay safe on the mountain this season with tips and advice from the Sugarbush Mountain Operations Team! It is our goal to keep our mountain safe for our guests to enjoy it to the fullest, but we can’t do it without a little help from all of you. This safety series covers important mountain safety topics included in the Skier and Rider Responsibility Code, as well as others like Park SMART and Uphill Travel. Our team walks you through why it’s important to follow these safety guidelines, and how they apply to our mountain. Remember, our team is always here to help and when you don’t know, take it slow! If you ski Sugarbush often, it’s a good idea to add the important phone numbers below to your phone contact list for easy access.
