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

GEAR UP:

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.

Lift ticket only

$46.9 lift ticket -- a bargain!! $15 for seniors 70+. These are tickets only, not part of a package. Reduced from $67 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.

Name Pizza lunch: meat-eater/veggie/none
Vincent Lee meat
Leah Perlmutter meat
Rowan Zellers veggie
Eric Zeng meat
Franzi Roesner meat
Dieter Fox meat
Yoshi Kohno meat
Morelle Arian veggie
Pedro Fonseca meat
Lucy Simko Veggie
Ras Bodik meat
Sharon Newman meat
Lee Organick meat
Jesse Dodge meat
Catie Baker none
Laszlo Lovasz none
Abram Friesen meat

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
Shumo Chu meat
Kiana Ehsani meat
Richard Ladner meat
Hessam Bagherinezhad meat
Xuan Luo meat
Srini veggie

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!
