$85 before October 5th, then $100
Dues include access to social events on the US trip, subsidized access to pub and Ski party, and a club t-shirt (while supplies last)
Both US and Spring Break trips will be on the EPIC PASS this year, but with the discounts you can get on Ikon we think either are a great deal! Please see the Resources page for links to buy either pass
All trips will include a combination of aprés events including Wharton-only sections of iconic venues like La Folie Douce, as well as 1-2 nighttime events fully organized by the club
Not at all - all members will have access to discounted gear rentals on all trips, often including apparel. We'll also be setting up gear swaps throughout the year that everyone can take advantage of.
We recommend a helmet, 1-2 thermal underlayers, snow pants, snow jacket, gloves, goggles, and then of course skis/board/boots
See our Resources page for up to date information on WSSC partner discounts!
Totally fine! Many of our members are new to the slopes, and all trips have plenty of beginner terrain. We'll also have a beginner-focused day trip to a local PA mountain in January (Shreducation) that is a great way to get comfortable on the pow -- get tips and pointers from one of our WSSC board members (free!) or join a group lesson with a Jack Frost instructor (discounted pricing).
Come for the aprés! Each trip location also has a multitude of other activities from snowshoeing, dog sledding, sightseeing, etc. that even non-shredders can take advantage of.
