Lessons
At Sunlight Ski & Ride School, we focus on personalized learning to make your mountain experience unforgettable. Our seasoned instructors are here to help you gain confidence on the slopes, whether you're just starting out or looking to level up your skills.
We offer a range of lessons and packages to fit your needs and budget. Since spots fill up quickly, especially during busy times like President’s Day weekend and Spring break, we recommend booking at least two days in advance.
