6-Year-Olds Now Ski for Free at Mount Washington

Mount Washington Alpine Resort has announced some exciting news for young skiers.

This winter, 6-year-olds are to be included in the tots program and will ski free for the season.
After implementing successful industry-leading programs like the Rookie Year (a conversion program for never-ever skiers and snowboarders), the resort says they take pride in being a continued advocate of snow sports accessibility for young children.

Spokesperson Sheila Rivers notes that by “ski”, they include all winter sports like snowboarding and cross-country, etc.

Stimulation of the local and provincial economy is also an added touch, the resort says. British Columbia ski areas are a significant contributor to the overall health of the tourism industry and preservation of jobs in the province.

In addition to 6 and under ski free program, Mt. Washington offers families further savings when they purchase a Family Season Pass Membership. The Resort’s Early Bird Season Pass deals end September 30th.
