A Day on the Mountain

Our day begins around 5:30 AM when we meet at sports basement in Berkeley, where we load the bus and begin our drive to Squaw Valley! During the ~3 hour bus ride, passengers usually sleep or hangout with friends.

After arriving at the resort, usually around 9 AM, we are free to go! Students spend the day with their friends or with a larger group of similarly skilled shredders. The trip is a great way to meet friends and people to ski/ride with in the future.

There are skiers and snowboarders of a variety of skill levels on the trip. Many have never seen the snow before, while others began skiing or snowboarding as toddlers. Some students receive a free lesson.

When the lifts close, people relax in Squaw Village, enjoying hot cocoa and recounting their day on the slopes. At 4:00, we begin our journey home. We arrive at the pickup location around 8 PM.
