ACL injuries happen all the time on the snow, even to highly experienced skiers and riders. More hours on the snow = higher risk of knee injury and wear-and-tear on the joints. Chronic knee pain and acute injuries take people off the mountain every year. Snow athletes should enroll in the Snow Course prior to the beginning of the season and should continue with the maintenance exercises during the season.
Ski area employees in all departments will benefit from the training, and fewer injuries occur as a result. We are partnered with PSIA-AASI and National Ski Patrol to support those working daily on the snow.
