Children's Camp Group Lessons

Sun Valley's SnowSports School offers children's group lessons for skiers' ages 4-12 and for snowboarders ages 6-12. We provide a fun, safe, and supportive environment where students can reach their full potential. Our team of Children's Program Supervisors hand pick instructors who focus on developing skills and fundamentals while building confidence in each student.

Lessons are offered in a camp setting daily beginning at 10:00am and ending at 3:00pm. The day includes four hours of on-snow instruction along with supervised breaks and lunch. We conduct camps on both Dollar Mountain and at Bald Mountain depending on the child's age and ability.

Children's Camp Program Information

Dollar Mountain Cubs & Bears

Held on Dollar Mountain, the Cubs and Bears program is the perfect introduction for children ages 4 to 12 to learn how to ski or ride. Dollar Mountain maintains its reputation as one of the premier training mountains in the country. Sound fundamentals are emphasized in an enthusiastic, energetic atmosphere. Supervision is provided at our child friendly, secure Children's Center from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm daily.

Baldy Adventure Camp

Intermediate to expert skiers and riders ages 6 to 12 will improve their skills on the world-famous Bald Mountain. These groups enjoy safe skiing and riding on more challenging terrain.  Classes begin and end at River Run Lodge. Supervision is provided from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm daily.

All Children’s Camps include lunch. Discount lift tickets and rental equipment can be added to any package. Supervised bus transfer is available from River Run Plaza to Dollar Mountain.  Check your child in at River Run by 9:15am and we will transfer them to and from Dollar Mountain. Classes run from 10:00am to 3:00pm. Please allow at least one half hour before class for registration and rental processing.  Late arrivals may not be admitted to class. Class sizes vary and increase in size during peak season.

Not Sure Which Camp Is Right For your Child?

We want your child to have the best experience possible. If you're unsure if your child is an intermediate, please start your child at Dollar for a more enjoyable first lesson back on the snow. Your child can advance to Bald Mountain when ready. In your child's best interest, we will move your child to the program and location best suited to your child's needs. Please note that the minimum age requirements are strictly observed for safety reasons and your child may be riding the chairlift alone.
