Brian Head, Utah — (Nov. 19, 2024) — Brian Head Resort, Southern Utah’s premier ski destination, is making winter sports more accessible by offering a complimentary 2.5-hour introductory ski and snowboarding lesson with the purchase of a lift ticket.
The free on-snow program is open to first-time skiers and snowboarders ages 13 and older, providing essential skills and safety guidance to help newcomers build confidence on the slopes. Lessons begin with the basics, covering proper equipment use, the skier responsibility code, and key safety practices. Instructors then guide participants on a gentle slope, teaching fundamental techniques such as gliding, turning, stopping, and falling safely.
The program includes instruction on loading and unloading a magic carpet lift and a chairlift, though students may only use these lifts if their instructor determines they are ready, to ensure a safe and comfortable experience. After mastering the basics, participants can continue practicing independently by riding the magic carpet and beginner chairlift or booking another free session to further refine their skills.
