Your Responsibility Code
Skiing can be enjoyed in many ways. At ski areas you may see people using Alpine, Snowboard, Telemark, Cross Country or other specialized ski equipment, such as that used by disabled or other skiers. Regardless of how you decide to enjoy the slopes, always show courtesy for others and be aware that there are elements of risk in skiing that common sense and personal awareness can help reduce.
