This code applies to all individuals practicing a snow sport.
- Maintain control of your speed and direction. Make sure you can stop and avoid any person or obstacle.
- Yield to people downhill (below you) and choose a direction that ensures their safety.
- Stop on a trail only if you are visible from above and if you do not obstruct the trail.
- Yield to people uphill (above you) when entering a trail and at intersections.
- If you are involved in an accident or witness one, stay at the scene and identify yourself to a rescuer.
- Use and wear a proper equipment retention system at all times. Do not use the lifts and slopes if you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
- Obey all signs and warnings and never venture off-piste or onto closed trails.
There are inherent risks that common sense and caution can help to reduce. Regardless of how you use the slopes, always be courteous to others. Respect the above code and share with others the responsibility that comes with a wonderful outdoor experience. You must also respect any other rules and signage related to a particular activity, as established by the resort. Know the code. Be vigilant. It’s your responsibility!
