Freestyle and Moguls
Main Slope Features!
Skiers and snowboarders can grab a lift pass and take on our main slope features, Freestyle and Moguls! The features are included within your main slope lift pass.

Wednesdays to Fridays. During the summer period, we host more 3rd Party Events so to provide our guests with maximum exposure, we have the features out from Thursday to Saturday.
