General Information

The UW CSE Ski Day 2018 is Friday, January 26th at Stevens Pass.

The deadline to sign up has been moved FORWARD to January 12th because Stevens Pass requires rental and lesson information two weeks in advances.

GETTING THERE:
Let's try to CARPOOL as much as we can.

LUNCH AND ROOM RESERVATION:
Hank is providing a pizza lunch starting at about noon. Please tell us if you prefer meat or vegetarian pizzas when you sign up!

THE AFTER PARTY:
Will happen in the same places where we get the pizzas.

GEAR UP:
Please dress warmly, bring extra layers, wear a water-resistant layer on the outside, and bring a change of clothes (or at least socks). If you lack appropriate clothing or don't know what appropriate clothing is, please post your needs or questions below under Ski Clothing. If you have extra gear, please check below and help out your fellow CSE snow bunnies. Remember sunblock and hydrate well in preparation. Wear a helmet.


SIGN UP:
Please Sign Up below, indicating whether you need lift tickets/rentals/lessons, by editing yourself into the table under your preferred option. You should also indicate your lunch preferences. Please sign up as soon as possible as we need to give the numbers to Stevens Pass.

Skier's Code

  1. Always stay in control and be able to stop or avoid other people or objects. 
  2. People ahead of you have the right of way. It is your responsibility to avoid them. 
  3. You must not stop where you obstruct a trail or are not visible from above. 
  4. Whenever starting downhill or merging into a trail, look uphill and yield to others.
  5. Always use devices to help prevent runaway equipment. 
  6. Observe all posted signs and warnings. Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas. 
  7. Prior to using any lift, you must have the knowledge and ability to load, ride and unload safely.

Sign Ups

Prices include tax, unless otherwise noted.

Please select one of the following sections, based on your needs, and edit yourself into the table in that section:
Beginner package, including lift ticket, lesson, and rentals
Intermediate package, including lift ticket, lesson, and rentals
Equipment Rental
Lift ticket only, no lesson or rentals
Providing your own ticket, as with a season pass

Skier rentals: choose ability from the following (used to set binding tightness):
Type 1- I have never been or don't know how to turn.
Type 1 Cautious skiing on smooth slopes of gentle to moderate pitch
Type 2 Most recreational skiing
Type 3 Fast skiing on slopes of moderate to steep pitch

Snowboarder rentals: choose "regular" if you do not know.


Beginner package

$89 Beginner Lesson Package. Includes 2 hour group lesson, rental, and beginner lift ticket. Note that the lift ticket is only good at beginner lifts, so do not get this if you know how to ski and want access to intermediate terrain. Lessons start at 10:00 a.m., and they recommend you get to Stevens Pass 1.5 hours before the lesson.

Please edit the section to add yourself to the table below.

Intermediate+ package

For intermediate lessons, Stevens now offers a "Ski Clinic" deal which is a 2 hour intermediate/advanced group lesson for $59.00. The rentals and lift ticket are not included so you have to also pay for those but you get a small discount on the lift ticket. In total this comes out to $59.00 (lesson) + $40.00 (lift ticket) + $36.00 (rental) = $135.00. The lift ticket is a full lift ticket and is good for the entire mountain. Lessons start at 10:00 a.m., and they recommend you show up 1.5 hours before the lesson if you need to pick up rentals.

Please edit the section to add yourself to the table below.

Lift ticket only

$51.35 lift ticket -- a bargain!! $20 for seniors 70+. These are tickets only, not part of a package. Reduced from $79 regular lift ticket, and good on all lifts. Choose this if you want a lift ticket, but not a lesson.

Please edit the section to add yourself to the table below.

Providing own ticket

Choose this if you will provide your own lift ticket, like if you have a season pass. Note that, once you factor in tax, our group rate is the same as the Stevens Advantage Card discount rate. The more tickets we buy as a group, the better perks we get, so we'd prefer Advantage Card holders buy a group ticket (one of the options above).

Please edit the section to add yourself to the table below.

Name Pizza lunch: meat-eater/veggie/none
Richard Ladner meat
Dhruv Jain meat
Shima meat
Ida meat
Hessam meat

Pay Up

Check will be collected after the event (although you're welcome to pay before as well :). Make your check to "University of Washington."

Carpool Signup

If you are planning to drive and have extra seats in your car, add yourself to the first table. Keep in mind that you may be driving in snowy/icy conditions and you may need chains if your car is not AWD. For updated road conditions check the WSDOT website and take a moment to refresh your snow driving skills. It takes about 1.5 hours to drive to Stevens pass from UW in good weather/traffic conditions. Plan for not-so-good conditions :)

Please indicate where you will be leaving from, what time you will leave Seattle, what time you will leave Stevens, how many more people you can fit (please update this as your car fills), and whether you can fit skis/snowboard (basically, if you have a rack, or if the skis will take up a seat). If you like, you can also indicate who your passengers are. Please try to fill up your car by contacting people who need rides above.

If you are looking for a ride, email an available driver to make arrangements, then add yourself to their riding column here. If there are no available drivers, add yourself as a row to the second table. Hopefully, by Friday, the second table will be empty :).

Ski Clothing

Rentals include ski boots (or snowboard boots, if you go that way).

Having the following clothes/equipments is recommended:

Upper body:

  • basic layer: wool, silk, polyester next to skin (cotton is not recommended since it is not warm when wet)
  • warm layer: any Insulation layer of your choice to keep you warm
  • shell layer: wind/water-proof is ideal

(Note: some insulated jackets can be used as two layers combined )

Lower body

  • pants: wind/waterproof is ideal
  • long socks: short socks are not ideal for ski or snowboard boots

Accessories:

  • Gloves/Mittens
  • Helmet (or at least a warm hat)
  • Goggles (if you are a first timer and would not go fast, sunglasses work well perhaps)

For more comprehensive information on recommended clothing, check out this Layering Basics.

If you don't have clothing appropriate for winter sports, post your needs here (goggles, ski pants, gloves etc.). If you have extra gear, please email people to help fill their needs. You can rent helmets from the rental shop!
