The Ski Hawks will be at Afton on Sunday January 15th for a Meet & Ski!
You must purchase your Lift Ticket in advance Online!!
Lift Tickets
Come at any time but the lifts open at 9:30. If you're new to the club, it's easier to find people to ski with if you get there early. Meet at The Highland's Chalet at 10:00 at the top of the hill.
Use the Highlands (upper) lot. The Highlands Chalet is the first chalet and parking area you will see on your right after entering the resort after taking your first left at the State Park entrance. Here you can park, pick-up your ticket, grab lunch or a drink and hit the slopes. The only thing you can't do is get rental equipment.
Unfortunately, we were not able to work a lift ticket discount. Perhaps you would like to consider a purchasing Epic Pass.
