Making Turns & Making Friends
We have two separate mountains, Dollar Mountain and Bald Mountain.
Skiers and snowboarders of beginning to low intermediate levels will improve their skills on the gentle, treeless terrain of Dollar Mountain providing them with the perfect environment to learn.
Skiers and snowboarders of intermediate and expert levels will take lessons on Bald Mountain and find themselves matched with instructors who offer challenge in a relaxed and supportive learning atmosphere.
Children's Camp Group Lessons
Sun Valley's SnowSports School offers children's all day 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 9:45 am 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.
