Uphill Travel Policy
Uphill travel policy
Please follow these simple requirements to assure safety for all White Pass skiers, riders and staff. Be advised that avalanche control work, while typically done between 6 am - 9 am, could be done at anytime. In the interest of your safety and the safety of our crew, you must ONLY use the prescribed uphill route. Failure to comply will result in being escorted from the ski area and trespassed from White Pass Ski Area.
NOTE: Uphill travel is intended for human-powered skiing only. Those who skin up, and attempt to load our lifts will be charged with Theft of Services.
The only approved run for uphill travel is HOLIDAY. Consult our trail map.
Stay to your extreme left (downhill skier's right) of Holiday as you climb
Stay clear of all ski area vehicles and equipment
Give right of way to all downhill traffic
Please be aware of the constant potential for avalanches; always let someone off the mountain know your travel plan and estimated return time, and be educated on all back-country protocols.
