Philly Freeriders: A Snowboarding and Skiing Group

**Update 5/5/25**: We have 12 spots left. If you sign up at this point, there is a high likelihood you will be placed on a pull out couch. To avoid this, you can pay double to reserve your own room or you can also share a king bed with someone else.

Ski in ski out at Mammoth!

Stay right next to a lift in 2BR condo units with full kitchens, a hot tub, heated pool, and natural hot springs nearby.

February is typically Mammoth's snowiest month.

We are collaborating with the Bucks Ridge Ski Club (BRSC), again. We love inexpensive lodging, and they want more members. The lodge is in Southern Vermont and is close to Stratton, Mount Snow, Magic Mountain, and not a bad drive from Killington/Okemo. The lodge is perfect for whatever around it, or breaking up your drive for something further North.

Dates:
Last season, we quickly sold out 1 event with BRSC. This season we will do 2 events. PFR will get BRSC member rates during 2 time frames during the 2025-2026 ski season. The time frames will line up with PFR Killington and PFR Sugarbush, which are both Saturday through Monday. If just a 3-day weekend is not enough, extend your weekend for 2 more days. The BRSC lodge is open to us 1/22-1/26 and 2/26-3/2 respectively, which are Thrursday through Monday.

Become a BRSC member, if you wish to submit for stays outside the PFR collaboration time frames.
