Dates April 1-3 (Add on March 31 available). Spots available 25 with lodging. If you do not need lodging, you can join and pay for the activities. Waitlist will be available and if Sugarloaf can accommodate, additional tripsters will be added.
Sugarloaf Info: There used to be a sign on the Superquad that stated the snowiest months, in order, at Sugarloaf were: #1 March, #2 April, #3 February, so don’t discount a late season trip. Sugarloaf groomers are some of the best and are amazing at keeping as much skiable terrain open as possible. I have personally skied well into May including Mother’s Day on more than one occasion.

If you have never skied Sugarloaf before or would like to get to know it better and possibly get a pointer or two from an ex-racer, now ski coach at CVA Weekend Program, we are offering mini-sessions with Erica Jenson. Groups will be small and tailored to your ability. Erica has a knack for watching someone ski and giving them one or two little things to work on that dramatically change the way they ski. This is free and for fun. It’s not a lesson. There are a few trails that some people never ski at Sugarloaf because few people know they exist. Erica has been a Sugarloafer since 2000 and has probably skied every trail on the mountain including the back snowfields.
