SKI EVENT Tips PLEASE SKI SAFELY!!! Dress properly for the cold.

 Don’t wear scarves hanging loose outside one’s jacket; a scarf can get caught in the rope tow or lift

 Fatigue can be a problem. Everyone should periodically come to the lodge to warm up and rest.

 Ski defensively.

 Look out for the safety of those around you.

 When meeting another skier, the downhill skier has the right of way.

 At the junction of 2 runs, the person on the larger trail has the right of way.

 Never ski fast through a crowd of people, near trees, T-bars, lifts, rope tows, and lift lines.

 All skiers should use common sense on the slopes.

 There are many hazards such as chair lifts, tow ropes, equipment, and weather and snow conditions.

 Be aware of the surroundings including other skiers. Anticipate changes in the conditions and the actions of other skiers.

 Become familiar with the trails and the difficulty of each run.

 Ski controlled.

One should never ski so fast that you cannot stop within your field of vision, which can be limited, by fog, snow, bumps and turns.

 Ski within your capabilities and always maintain the ability to change directions and/or stop when and where you want to.

 The key to control is turning. Turning is the chief means of controlling speed.

 Don’t stop in the middle of a crowded slope or any location where you cannot be seen such as under a slope or around a bend. A ski slope has a variety of angles, pitches, bumps, rolls, side hills and snow conditions, so judgment concerning speed is very important.

HAVE FUN!
