Ever wonder what happens before the mountain opens? 👀
Come see how ski patrollers kick off the day ❤️
Depending on where we’re assigned, the morning commute might be a chairlift ride or, like today, a snowmobile ride. Once we arrive, it’s time: unload the toboggan, check medical gear, brew some much-needed coffee, assess snow and terrain conditions, and set up signage to keep everyone safe.
💡 Fun fact: Ski patrol is usually on the mountain hours before the first chair spins, checking hazards, marking obstacles, and making sure routes are ready to go.
Ripp lives for these early rides whether it’s the lift or the sled. 🐾 We start desensitization training early with our pups, so experiences like this just become part of their everyday routine.
I hope you enjoyed this small glimpse into our morning on patrol with Ripp. So fun to get the POV of Ripp thank to
