Where do I go my first time?
Beginners to skiing and snowboarding should always go to the Discovery Lodge first. All our staff are trained to answer any and all questions that you may have and to make your day as fun as we can.

What time should I arrive?
Most ski areas are the busiest between the hours of 9:00am and 11:00am. If possible, arrive as early in morning or soon as your schedule permits. The lifts operate between 9 am - 4 pm.

What can I expect?
Here at Belleayre you can expect to find friendly staff, good service, and great riding and skiing. Lines for tickets, rentals and lifts are kept to a minimum, while instructor staffing is at a maximum.

What should I bring?
Start by bringing a good positive attitude, dress properly check the conditions and have fun!

Is my child too young?
Belleayre suggests putting children in lessons and programs as early as 4 years old.

I'm not riding the lift, do I need to purchase a lift ticket?
Yes, because of Article 18 and the responsibilities to skiers and boarders, all skiers and boarders must be wearing a valid ticket to be allowed on any terrain, which includes all teaching areas

Should I Snowboard or Ski my first time?
Should I have pizza or burgers - you decide!

Are you still open if it rains?
Yes, Belleayre remains open even in the rain. Always be sure to check the ski condition report for up-to-the minute ski conditions. Where you live it may be raining, but at Belleayre Mountain, because of the higher mountain elevation, it's probably snowing.

Remember, no question is ever a dumb question. If you don't know something, ask someone. That's what we are here for!
