The Snow How Self-Learn System is the easiest way to immerse yourself in Canada’s renowned ski and snowboard culture.
From Olympic snowboarders to the most dedicated ski instructors, everyone started the same way as you—learning one skill at a time. Remember, even during the excitement of your very first day, you will find the fun as you begin to build your basics. Blue Mountain’s Snow How Self-Learn System bundles gear, lift access, knowledge, discounts and more!
rich-text, responsive-tableThe 5 step-by-step Progression Pillars will visually guide you through the basics and are located at both the Village and South Base Lodge Learning Centres!
What is Smart Terrain?
In our Learning Centres, the terrain has been specially groomed to enhance your learning experience. The formed learning terrain, or Smart Terrain as we call it, is what sets Blue Mountain apart from other learning destinations. When you begin, notice the landscape around each pillar and find the terrain that compliments what you are learning! rich-text, responsive-table
