Know Before You Go

Snowboarding and skiing are no more hazardous than other high-octane sports. However, make no mistake - they can be very challenging and may require certain abilities that can only be learned with hard work and practice.  All sports involve some inherent risk, but to some extent, it is that very same risk that appeals to us.  Safety starts not just when you hit the mountain, but much earlier. Make sure you plan appropriately as various hazards exists including the weather, sun and terrain. ALWAYS SKI OR RIDE WITH A BUDDY AND KEEP THAT BUDDY IN SIGHT AT ALL TIMES.
