The Snow Responsibility Code

Otherwise known as the ‘Roadcode for the slopes’, these are the rules to play by so that everyone has the best possible experience while on the

snow. There are eight rules in total and it pays to know them all, our Trail Safety team will be spot checking customers and you may find yourself the lucky winner of a small prize if a correct answer is given! 

The Snow Code Rules! 


1. Stay in Control at all times ~ Know your ability, start easy, be able to stop and avoid other people.

2. People below you have the right of way ~ The skier or boarder downhill of you has the right of way. Don’t forget to look above before entering a trail.

3. Obey all ski area signage ~ Signs are there for your safety. Keep out of closed areas.

4. Look before you leap ~ Scope jumps first. Ensure the area is clear of others. Use a spotter on blind jumps.

5. Stop where you can be seen ~ When stopping, try to move to the side of the trail and where you can be seen from above.

6. Don’t lose what you use ~ Equipment must be secured while walking or stashing

7. Stay on scene ~ If you are involved in, or witness, an accident, remain at the scene and identify yourself to the ski patrol.

8. Respect gets respect ~ From the lift line to the slopes and through the park
